Poor old Arcade Fire. They’ve spent weeks plotting a guerilla marketing campaign to build up to the release of their brand new single, ‘Reflektor’, and now, just a day before their grand unveiling, the song has leaked online. The single is the first track to be taken from Arcade Fire’s upcoming album, also called ‘Reflektor’, […]
With her long-awaited fourth album Matangi scheduled for a 5 November release, MIA has slowly been dripping out new material in characteristically odd and wonderful ways. A snippet of her new single ‘Come Walk With Me’ was unleashed onto the internet last week, and now the full version is available via a new Tumblr page: […]
Arctic Monkeys aired a new track from their upcoming album AM on XFM last night. Called ‘I Want It All’, it’s a bit more of a classic riff-led rock song than the previous slinky and suggestive releases ‘Do I Wanna Know?‘, ‘Why Do You Only Call Me When You’re High?’ and ‘Stop The World I […]
If this is the calibre of songs that didn’t make the cut for AM, then Arctic Monkeys’ new album should be a bit awesome. ‘Stop The World I Wanna Get Off With You’ is the B-side for their equally saucily-titled new single ‘Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High?’, and it’s a slinky, low […]
In a world that now contains Yeezus, Death Grips’ particular brand of brutally nihilistic punk-rap seems increasingly more relevant and essential. The Sacramento outfit are currently working on a new album slated for release in 2014, and have today released the typically sparse and bruising ‘Birds’.

Hotly-tipped pop-soul trio London Grammar are set to unleash their highly anticipated debut album If You Wait (that’s the artwork for it above) on 10 September. Before that though, they’ve released brand new track ‘Interlude’ – which is gorgeous. Check it out below: Here’s the full tracklist for If You Wait: 01. Hey Now 02. […]
With her new album Matangi being constantly delayed (it’s now slated for a 5 November release), MIA has moved to keep fans appeased by releasing a new track. Called ‘UNBREAK my Mixtape’, the new track is a love-song of sorts and acts like a mixtape within a song – so there’s lots of samples including […]
Forget Kendrick Lamar and his scene-shaking verse, the real hip-hop news this week is the release of Flying Lotus AKA Captain Murphy’s new single in the Adult Swim Singles Series – which not only features fellow cool producer-type Thundercat but DOOM (in his Viktor Vaughn guise) and Earl Sweatshirt. The single is called ‘Between Villains’, […]
Fresh from the huge success of their debut album proper Light Up Gold, Parquet Courts have announced they will release a brand new EP on 7 October via What’s Your Rupture? Called ‘Tally All The Things That You Broke’, the EP will feature five new tracks from the Brooklyn foursome – including the typically rambunctious […]
Despite the departure of front-man Daniel Blumberg earlier this year, London shoegazers Yuck made an impressive return last month with ‘Rebirth‘. They’ve followed that up with another slice of scuzzy awesomeness in the shape of ‘Middle Sea’, as well as revealing their second album will be titled Glow & Behold and will be released on […]
