Sleaford Mods Announce New Album UK Grim, Share Title Track and 2023 Tour Dates
Sleaford Mods are back, just as disappointed with their home country as ever, and announcing the new album UK GRIM. The title track is out now, and the post-punk duo have also unveiled a run of 2023 North American tour dates around their appearance at Coachella. The follow-up to 2021’s Spare Ribs, UK GRIM features contributions from Perry Farrell, Dave Navarro, and Dry Cleaning’s Florence Shaw. “Maybe we are proud of the country,” vocalist Jason Williamson said (via BrooklynVegan). “Maybe we are proud to be English. Maybe I’m proud of the horrible grey streets and the shit weather and the stupid fashions I find myself investing in. It’s just that the English we’re proud of being is absolutely nothing like the English the authorities want to try and promote.” Over A...
TAEYANG of BIGBANG and Jimin of BTS Are a Whole “VIBE” on New Single: Stream
It’s one of the most high-profile K-pop collaborations of all time: BIGBANG‘s TAEYANG has recruited Jimin of BTS for his vibrant new throwback single, “VIBE.” The track marks TAEYANG’s first new solo release since his 2017 album White Night, as the vocalist and dancer went on to complete his time in the South Korean military in 2018. BIGBANG returned as a group in 2022 with the warmly received ballad “Still Life.” “VIBE,” meanwhile, is a catchy anthem perfectly fit for one of BTS’s strongest dancers — not only is the choreography a blast, but Jimin’s instantly recognizable and distinct vocals also inject the second verse with a burst of energy. What’s more, Jimin has called himself a fan of TAEYANG’s since BTS’s debut back in 2013, when Jimin named him as the artist he’d most love to ...

Miley Cyrus Launches a Fresh Era with New Song “Flowers”: Stream
Miley Cyrus is back but the mullet is not as she enters a new era with her latest single, “Flowers.” It’s the first preview of her upcoming album Endless Summer Vacation, which is due out March 10th on Columbia Records. When last we heard new music from Cyrus, she was channeling a pop star Joan Jett on her 2020 album, Plastic Hearts. Endless Summer Vacation is said to be her “love letter to LA,” and “a reflection of the strength she’s found in focusing on both her physical and mental well-being. With that in mind, “Flowers” sounds like an ode to independence. “I can buy myself flowers,” she sings, adding, “I can love me better than you can.” The song comes with an accompanying music video and you can check it out below.

SZA Channels Uma Thurman in Tarantino-Inspired “Kill Bill” Video: Watch
SZA is back to save our souls again with the video for “Kill Bill,” a highlight of her new album SOS. As you might expect given its title, the clip takes inspiration from Quentin Tarantino and his 2003 film of the same name. Directed by Christian Breslauer, the “Kill Bill” clip begins with SZA (seemingly) happily in love before her boyfriend ends their relationship. Immediately after the bombshell, a barrage of bullets hits her trailer as it falls under siege by a pair of gunmen who were directed by the artist’s ex himself. From there, the video for the singer’s deceptively catchy single begins in earnest, as SZA suits up with her sword to exact her revenge. Watch the clip below. SOS earned SZA her well-deserved first No. 1 album, and it also had the fifth biggest debut on the charts ...

Black Belt Eagle Scout Shares Atmospheric New Single “Nobody”: Stream
Black Belt Eagle Scout, the indie rock project of Katherine Paul, is back today with another new single called “Nobody.” It’s the latest sample of her upcoming album The Land, The Water, The Sky. Much of Paul’s music is inspired by her Indigenous roots, and “Nobody” navigates the complexities of representing a marginalized community: “When I was growing up, I didn’t have very many Native role models to look to on TV or the radio,” she said in a press release. “It was within my own community that I found inspiring role models through our elders and our community leaders.” Paul adds: “With Native representation in music and television slowly growing, I often ask myself where I stand within representation in music and how I want to be seen. This song is about the relationship I have with my o...

The Lemon Twigs Watch You from the “Corner of My Eye” with New Single: Stream
The Lemon Twigs are ringing in 2023 with their first new music in over two years. The psych-rock brother duo have today shared the single “Corner of My Eye” — their first release via their new label home Captured Tracks — along with its accompanying music video. Lemon Twigs’ Brian and Michael D’Addario have teased “Corner of My Eye” in live performances, but it’s deserving of a proper studio version. In true Twigs fashion, the soft rock ballad feels reminiscent of folk greats of the ’60s and ’70s. “But when I’ve got you in the corner of my eye/ All my moments are the same when day or night,” the brothers sing in harmony over gentle guitars. “We recorded this track winter of 2021 in our old rehearsal studio in Midtown, NYC,” the D’Addarios said in a press release. “Apart from the vibraphone...
