    Art pop three-piece Future Islands is preparing to drop a new album titled Singles in March, and here we have the video for Singles‘ first single, “Waiting on You (Seasons Change).” The visuals seem as though they’d be better suited to a piece of americana, but strangely, they do

  • New Haven rap outfit Political Animals has a new video for their song “Ultra Violence,” and it is no less kinetic than the one they made for “Man the Mic” last October. Moreover, this new single is just as punchy as their last. “Ultra Violence” deviates in that it has

  • Next month German indietronic quartet The Notwist will drop its first album in six years, Close to the Glass. This second single, “Kong,” is certainly a buoyant number, but due to its conventional indie rock composition, it isn’t particularly exciting. At least not until around the three minute mark,

  • Earlier today, indie electropop artist iamamiwhoami has come out with a gorgeous new video and song called “Fountain.” iamamiwhoami is still wearing her influences – like Björk and The Knife – on her sleeve, but the glimmering synth and her voice add up to something too majestic to be denied. Enjoy! Catch

    Casey Dienel’s White Hinterland project has been extremely quiet since the release of their last LP, the great Kairos. Now, four years later, Dienel is ready to release the project’s third album, Baby. The first track to drop from it, “Ring the Bell”, sounds like a natural progression

    Designer clothing retailer SSENSE presents another formless composition from experimental electronic artist Arca that will leave you scratching your head.

    Beck suddenly drops a folky new single, which teases toward his next LP, Morning Phase. The album is currently looking at a February 25th release date, and I’m not entirely sure how excited I am at this point. While One Foot In The Grave–Beck’s freak folk opus–

  • A frenetic, zany, kooky, scatter-brained, etc. track from lo-fi electronic musician Lockbox. “Brainhead” appears to be the result of a caffeine high stacked on top of a sugar rush, propelled by a constant skittering beat and loaded with countless fleeting synth textures over the course of its action-packed three-and-a-half minute

    Even though she has firmly planted herself as a wonderful, talented indie-folk singer/songwriter, Marissa Nadler’s has not found a larger audience. It’s quite a shame, and her most recent releases attest to that. She has a new record on the way, though, and has just dropped a

    Like all the bleeps and bloops of WIXIW, but just wish it were more upbeat and colorful? Well, looks as though Liars will be fulfilling your wish on their new LP Mess, a title that justifies all the pics of tangled colored yarn the trio has used for promotion these
