<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-19T16:30:31+00:00“>May 19, 2021 | 12:30pm ET Japanese Breakfast has returned with another single ahead of her new album, Jubilee, due out June 4th via Dead Oceans. It’s called “Savage Good Boy” and it comes with a cinematic music video in tow. Check it out below. “Savage Good Boy” continues Japanese Breakfast’s foray into funky new-wave pop. Like lead single “Be Sweet”, it uses airy synths, a rubbery bassline, and snappy percussion to ground her cheery falsettos and vocal harmonies. All in all it’s fairly brief, clocking in just over two minutes, and leaves the listener wanting more from her follow-up to 2017’s Soft Sounds from Another Planet. The single’s accompanying music vide...

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-19T18:37:40+00:00“>May 19, 2021 | 2:37pm ET Garbage are back with another single from their upcoming album No Gods No Masters. The new song is called “Wolves” and it’s available to stream below. Like the album’s title track, “Wolves” is a bold, guitar-driven number with new wave synth that sees Garbage returning to form. Shirley Manson sings about a desperate love affair gone wrong with a twisted delivery. In the chorus, her vocals are especially breathy and eerie, transforming the narrator into an almost possessed-like figure. “This song reminds me of my younger self, when there were two sides to my personality,” Manson explained in a press release. “I hurt so many people in my ...

He’s announced a new album from his solo project Bleachers project, Take the Sadness out of Saturday Night, out July 30th, and shared the single “Stop Making This Hurt”. Bleachers will also be hitting the road later this year on a 2021 tour. For the follow-up to 2017’s Gone Now, Antonoff handled almost everything in-house. That makes sense; Antonoff is the guy you hire to make your songs sound good, and those hefty paychecks might dry up if he starts outsourcing the wor...

While plans for her debut album are still under wraps, the up-and-coming musician will be supporting Japanese Breakfast on tour this fall, and she’s now shared her new song “Alone But Not Lonely”. Li’s music first gained traction when she uploaded clips of herself jamming on Instagram. Classically trained in piano and harp, her music possesses an orchestral quality paired with a kaleidoscopic groove.

It looked like he was hyped on wrangling a number of high-profile artists into the studio to record before realizing that the ongoing coronavirus pandemic wouldn’t end anytime soon. It’s fitting, then, that the hit-making producer would want to releas...
