Stream Chapter 3 Of Beach House’s New Album Once Twice Melody

Crowning, from Chicago, released one of the best screamo albums of 2020 with their full-length debut Survival Sickness. NAEDR, from Singapore, also released their debut album Past Is Prologue in 2020, and it was also one of the year’s best in the realm of skramz. Now the two groups are teaming up on a split 12″ called Rayau for release at the end of May.

Living Hour have announced a new album called Someday Is Today, the successor to 2019’s Softer Faces. This time around, the Winnepeg group collaborated with multiple producers: Samur Khouja (Cate Le Bon, Deerhunter), Jonathan Schenke (Parquet Courts, Snail Mail), and Jay Som’s Melina Duterte. The album arrives at the beginning of September.

Last year, the Brooklyn indie rock trio Foyer Red released their sweetly manic debut EP Zigzag Wombat, which turned a lot of heads. Since then, Foyer Red have added two more members, singer/guitarist Kristina Moore and bassist Eric Jaso. (Jaso and Foyer Red drummer Marco Ocampo also play in Hypnoluxo.) Today, Foyer Red have followed up that EP with their new single “Flipper.”

Arcade Fire continue to be everywhere to promote WE, and increasingly the focus has been on “Unconditional I (Lookout Kid).” The song had a big Coachella moment, which in turn became part of its music video, and Arcade Fire played it on SNL as well. Although they’ve also...

Though former Cocteau Twins vocalist Elizabeth Fraser has appeared here and there throughout the years, her new project with her partner Damon Reece marked her first real deal release in 13 years. They’ve called themselves Sun’s Signature, and their first single “Golden Air” was a beautiful reminder of what Fraser’s voice can do. Ahead of the EP’s arrival this summer, the duo have shared another new song.

“NCIS: Los Angeles” star Daniela Ruah absolutely killed it on the red carpet and stage last night at the International Portuguese Music Awards. While everyone at home was preparing for tonight’s “NCIS: Los Angeles” episode, Daniela Ruah was getting all dressed up to host the IMPA Awards. The ceremony took place at the Providence Performing Arts Center in Providence, Rhode Island, on Saturday, April 23.

Depp said he discovered Disney would not recast him in "Pirates" days after Amber Heard's Washington Post op-ed article was published.

Too $hort has worked with a score of legendary producers throughout his almost 40-year career, from Jermaine Dupri and Lil Jon to Daz Dillinger and DJ Pooh. But one big-name beatsmith he passed up the opportunity to work with was Kanye West. During a recent interview with VladTV, the Bay...

Cara Delevingne played multiple roles at the Billboard Music Awards last night. Supermodel, red carpet stylist, and most of all, Megan Thee Stallion superfan. While on the red carpet, Delevingne stood behind the superstar rapper advising her on how to pose to show off her custom gown until she eventually jumped into the shot to do it for her. The 29-year-old model lifted up Stallion’s brown and black train that draped behind her. For...

Andrew Woolfolk, popularly known for being Earth, Wind & Fire's longtime saxophonist, has passed away at the age of 71; what was his cause of death?. Fellow bandmate Philip Bailey took to Instagram to confirm the tragic news and recalled their early years, saying they met in High School and quickly became friends and bandmates.

It’s been a bit since we heard from Oakland rapper Kamaiyah. In September 2020, she released the collaborative EP Oakland Nights with fellow Bay Area artist Capolow. The 10-track EP followed her February 2020 mixtape Got It Made. Now, Kamaiyah has circled back with a new song and video: “F.W.I” featuring Vallejo rapper DaBoii.

Madcap mastermind John Dwyer has kept up his non-stop string of releases over the past year with albums from projects like Moon Drenched and Gong Splat, which Dwyer made with a whole bunch of friends and collaborators. Today, he’s announcing a brand-new Osees album, A Foul Form, which is due out on August 12 via Castle Face Records. Lead single “Funeral Solution” is scurrying and furious. The album comes with a statement from noted fan Henry Rollins:

The jammy and virtuosic Connecticut band Goose, a big pandemic-era success story, announced their new album Dripfield back in February and shared its title track. They’ve since released “Hungersite” and are now back with “Arrow.” This one starts out with a funky guitar figure and lots of raucous percussion but builds tension toward a more melancholic chorus, soaring into the space between pop and alternative rock radio like Bastille or something. Here’s what the band’s Peter Anspach has to say about it:

Later this year, the real BTS, the transcendent Idaho indie rock institution Built To Spill, will release When The Wind Forgets Your Name, their first album for new label Sub Pop. Frontman Doug Martsch produced the record, and the LP features him playing with Lê Almeida and João Casaes, two members of the Brazilian band Oruã. (When BTS tour later this year, Oruã will open, but Martsch will play with new band members Melanie Radford and Teresa Esguerra.)

Portola Music Festival is a new event that’s headed to San Francisco’s Pier 80 this September. Its name, as a press release notes, alludes to 1909’s Portola Festival, which took place three years after the city’s devastating 1906 earthquake. Its inaugural lineup includes a whole bunch of good names.

Harry Styles’ solo career did not immediately yield hits commensurate to his status as one of the world’s biggest pop stars; his rock-leaning self-titled debut LP was more of an album’s album than a singles machine. But in our post-Fine Line world, the former One Direction singer is now inarguably a streaming and radio force in addition to an actor, fashion plate, and professional celebrity. This Friday he’ll release his new album Harry’s House, which has already yielded a #1 hit in the indie-ish lead single “As It Was.” A few hours before that, Rachel Brodsky and I will break down the album on the latest episode of Stereogum’s weekly live podcast Callin Me Maybe. Tune in here Thursday at 4PM ET to hear us assuage or enrage entire stan armies, and while you’re there, call in with a take of your own.

In the 32-year history of the Billboard Music Awards, I can’t remember any moment when the show had any particular agenda. The BBMAs are an also-ran awards show with no pretenses toward prestige; the show exists entirely to honor the most popular artists in the world, or at least the most popular artists who will show up for the telecast. Last night, though, that changed. Before the show, first-time host and executive producer Diddy said, “One of the things I’m doing directly is un-canceling the canceled. That’s breaking news because people haven’t been about uncanceling. But canceling is a trend that needs to stop.” To that end, Diddy made sure that the show would feature Morgan Wallen and Travis Scott, two huge stars who have suffered self-inflicted career setbacks.

Last month, Friendship put out a new single, “Ugly Little Victory,” and revealed that they had signed to Merge Records, some welcome news after the Philadelphia band released two great albums, 2017’s Shock Out Of Season and 2019’s Dreamin’. Today, they’re announcing their next full-length, Love The Stranger, which will be out in July. They’re also sharing a new song from it, the rootsy and revolving “Hank,” which Friendship leader Dan Wriggins says is “a song about when you go to fix something that’s broken and realize the tools you’re supposed to fix it with are also broken.” It comes with a music video directed by comedian Joe Pera, who had this to say about teaming up with the band:

Back in March, Angel Olsen announced her new album Big Time. So far we’ve heard two gorgeous songs from, “All The Good Times” and the title track — both topped our list of favorite songs in their release weeks. The album’s now a couple weeks away, and Olsen is back with another preview.

Music Midtown, which takes place in Atlanta’s Piedmont Park, has announced its 2022 lineup. Headliners include the reunited My Chemical Romance, Future, Jack White, and Fall Out Boy. The Live Nation-organized event will take place over two days (September 17 + 18) this fall. Also on the bill are...
