PJ Harvey  A Child's Question, July   Favoriting I Inside the Old Year Dying  Parisan Records  2023  Released July 7, this is the Polly Jean Harvey's 10th album, based on her 2022 verse novel Orlam; which leaned heavily on the mythology and dialect of her native Dorset. Listeners not already familiar with Orlam may find this reimagining of it a little lyrically opaque, not least because of oblique references to a character who shares his name in part with Elvis – not one of Bridport’s better-known exports."  *   0:03:16 (Pop-up)

MADMADMAD  Do You?   Favoriting Do You?/Shambles Single  Bad Vibrations  2023  London post-punk electronic crew MADMADMAD return today with a brand new double A-side single 'Do You' b/w 'Shambles', out now via Bad Vibrations. Of 'Do You', the band offer: "It's about being yourself without asking permission. It's a hypnotic, dance floor-ready anthem that makes you want to let the goof out, in a playful invitation to dance your troubles away, like Archie Bell beaming from darker space. A deranged sonic ride with an irresistible feel-good factor."    0:20:55 (Pop-up)
WHITEY  Death By Party   Favoriting Lost Songs Vol. 5: Let's Never Go Home Again  NO! Label  2023  Ascerbic recluse, musical commentator and Professional Outsider Whitey is back with a new record! Despite his obvious talent to churn out outrageously infectious dance tracks — built around organic guitar- and keyboard-driven melodies, thick, warbley bass hooks, and unusual but catchy drumming (like they used to before every kid and his little brother got a laptop and some electro loops) — he's avoided the limelight (or, more likely, he's never been invited in). This is unfortunate as Whitey represents all that is good about pop music. He lays the energy and fun on thick, tosses in memorable and expertly-constructed lyrics, and, most importantly, never misses a beat or lose interest in what he's doing. We could all learn a lot from Whitey.  *   0:25:18 (Pop-up)
The Particles  The Truth About You   Favoriting Advanced Colouring EP  Not On Label  1981  The Particles formed in Sydney in the late 70's. Inspired by the Punk aesthetic, the band went through a number of rotating members...over 20 to be exact! The band also toured extensively to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Canberra and many regional centres. By the time the band stopped working in 1985, they had played in front countless people, travelled countless miles and left behind a legion of fans.    0:28:20 (Pop-up)
The Rellies  The Monkey   Favoriting Monkey Single  Damaged Goods  2023  The Rellies ages range from 13-16 and developed at Kings Cross Conservatorium in Sydney, Australia. Brothers Riley and Ryan Francis began writing and recording at age 9 and 11 respectively and doing shows as The Rellies in 2018 with Jarlath Kiernan on drums. In 2021, the band replaced guitarist Aiden Burke with Lachlan Knight when Aiden decided rehearsal was too loud. Ryan, guitarist and dual singer and songwriter for the band describes the making of ‘Monkey’ during lockdown with his brother Riley. “During covid we got very bored. Originally, we wanted to get our Monkeys and run them over with our dad’s car, but we settled for filming them falling down the stairs and writing a song about it. When the other members of band finally heard the song, they liked the Monkey and then we made a clip with our friends and some TV monkeys. Everyone sang ‘I like the Monkey’ and soon everyone liked the Monkey!”  *   0:30:33 (Pop-up)

A. Savage  Thanksgiving Prayer   Favoriting Thanksgiving Prayer (Digital Single)  Rough Trade Records  2023  Released today! (July 13) "Parquet Courts frontman A. Savage has announced his signing to Rough Trade Records and released a new single, “Thanksgiving Prayer,” which is produced by John Parish and comes with a video directed by Tiff Pritchett. It’s Savage’s first solo track since 2017’s Thawing Dawn LP and features contributions from backing band Euan Hinshelwood (saxophone), Magdalena McLean (violin), Jack Cooper (guitar), and Dylan Hadley (drums). ///////// Here’s what Savage had to say about “Thanksgiving Prayer”: Well, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, and every year on that day I write down some words having to do with gratitude. Some years are better than others, but the last one I celebrated these words just sort of came out of me. It was a pretty special holiday actually, because in fact we were recording this song, but I made everybody take a day off. [Producer] John Parish and his wife Michelle were kind enough to allow me to take over their kitchen to cook the meal for everyone. Dylan [Hadley, drums] and I were the only Americans, so there was a bit of explaining to do. So it was the band, the studio staff and the Parish family, and it was an absolutely lovely day. I was in awe of the kindness and mercy, and that’s what the song is about; being in awe of humans. When I got back to my room I was on such a high so I started writing and this song is what was on the page the next morning, when we recorded it. ///////// “The video is directed by a brilliant young director Tiff Pritchett, and she had this idea to sort of do a silent film tribute,” Savage adds of the video. “The scene from Renoir’s film Rules of the Game where Danse Macabre is played was referenced, as was Klaus Nomi.”" A. Savage - Thanksgiving Prayer (Official Video)  *   0:44:14 (Pop-up)
Our Lips Are Sealed (Monitor Mix)  Fun Boy Three   Favoriting The Complete Fun Boy Three  Chrysalis Records Limited  2023  This advanced preview released on: 2023-07-13 // Producer: David Byrne Band: Neville Staples // Band: Lynval Golding // Composer: Terry Hall // Composer: Jane Wiedlin --- To come out as: [2023-08-04] The Fun Boy Three "The Complete Fun Boy Three" 5CD/1DVD box set (Chrysalis UK) "Fun Boy Three formed in the summer of 1981 when Terry Hall, Lynval Golding and Neville Staples broke away from The Specials. The band quickly hit the UK top 40 charts with their debut single, 'The Lunatics (Have Taken Over The Asylum). This was followed in early '82 by two UK Top 10 singles with Bananarama, 'T'Aint What You Do (It's The Way That You Do It)' and 'Really Saying Something'. A further 7 singles ('Summertime', 'The Tunnel of Love', 'Our Lips Are Sealed', etc.) and two albums, The Fun Boy Three (1982) and Waiting (1983), the later produced by Talking Heads front man, David Byrne, were released before calling it a day in the Summer of 1983. ///// The Complete Fun Boy Three includes 69 audio tracks which brings together all the official recordings (albums/singles/B-sides/remixes/live and previously unreleased outtakes). The 27 track DVD includes all their promo videos, Top of The Pops performances and a live concert from 1983. ///// This is packaged in a DVD sized hardback book, with newly written sleeve notes by John Earls (Classic Pop/Record Collector) with contributions from the band and photographs."  *   0:49:05 (Pop-up)
Deadletter  Degenerate Inanimate   Favoriting Degenerate Inanimate (Digital Single)  So Recordings  2023  Released yesterday (Jul 12) "Fresh off the back of their incendiary sets at this year’s Glastonbury and The Great Escape Festivals, DEADLETTER have just released their latest track, ‘Degenerate Inanimate‘ – a self-coined term referring to someone who is not who they say they are. Their slanted brand of jazzy post-punk, rich with wit and satire, has been thrilling audiences across the live circuit. Hailing from Yorkshire, the London-based band channel the droll fury of Gang of Four and the lopsided rhythms of Talking Heads into a strain of vehement post-punk, exploring the darker side of existence through a lens of narrative-driven levity. ‘Degenerate Inanimate‘ just premiered on Steve Lemacq‘s 6 Music show after their last track ‘The Snitching Hour’ was added to BBC6 Music’s A-List. ////// The new release sees the six-piece reach new heights, further cementing their reputation as one of the hottest acts around. Bound together by a recognition of frenetic energy and rhythm, leaving any wider ideological goal open to interpretation by the listener. ////// On the single, frontman Zac Lawrence says “Degenerate Inanimate alludes to the feeling of betrayal felt when someone close to you is revealed as dishonest to the bone. There’s a unique form of unease which arises from having your basic intelligence mocked, as they reveal their complete lack of decency.” ///// Constantly on the road, DEADLETTER will tour across Europe and the UK throughout the year and will see them play to some of their biggest audiences to date. Their October headline tour is on-sale now, with the Manchester show already sold-out and a second one added."  *   0:53:21 (Pop-up)
Interpol, Water From Your Eyes  Something Changed (Water From Your Eyes Interpolation)   Favoriting Something Changed (Water From Your Eyes Interpolation)  Interpol / Matador Records  2023  Released yesterday (Jul 12) "For the past few months, Interpol have teamed up with different artists to release interpolations of songs from their latest album The Other Side Of Make-Believe. Makaya McCraven, Jeff Parker, and Jesu have participated so far, and the latest contribution to the series comes from Interpol’s Matador labelmates Water From Your Eyes, who recently put a new album of their own, Everyone’s Crushed. They’ve taken on album single “Something Changed.” “The idea was to invert the tone of the song, like a photo negative,” the duo’s Nate Amos said in a statement. “Reframing change from something foreboding into something encouraging – as well as creating a conversation between Paul and Rachel in order to place the thoughts externally rather than internally.”"  *   0:56:20 (Pop-up)

King Krule  Pink Shell   Favoriting Space Heavy  Matador  2023  A King Krule song tends to sound woozy, even slick, until you get close enough to smell the rot. Blue notes curdle in grimy pools of reverb. Hooks wilt in the muck. Then he sets loose that monstrous voice and it hulks through the swamp, holding each delicate line aloft like a swaddled newborn. It is the voice that protects the poetry, neither viable without the other. Space Heavy is the fifth studio album by English singer-songwriter Archy Marshall, and his fourth album under the stage name King Krule. The album was written and recorded between 2020 and 2022, with Marshall working on the album during commutes between London and Liverpool, where he has residences. During the commutes, Marshall became "fascinated by the notion of 'the space between'", which became the album's theme, along with a "narrative of lost connection" and "losing people and situations to the guillotine of the universe".  *   1:15:33 (Pop-up)
Chupameeldedo  Mi Rehabilitacion   Favoriting Mi Rehabilitacion/No Seas Malo Single  Bongo Joe  2023  Chupame El Dedo is a new group formed by Eblis Álvarez (Meridian Brothers) and Pedro Ojeda (Romperayo, Los Pirañas, Ondatrópica). It was born out from a commission by Detlef Diederichsen, director of the 'House of World Cultures' in Berlin for a Festival called "Evil Music" or "Böse musik" in October 2013. The idea was to recreate a death metal group with influences of tropical music. Recorded live at the Isaac Newton Studios in Bogota, the album explores grindcore, speed and black metal cliches whilst marrying a tropical rhythm section made of salsa, cumbia, currulao & reggaeton. The result is pure tropical madness, stylistic dislocation and very very fast drums. Head banging mojitos! Chupame El Dedo = (suck my finger)  *   1:17:35 (Pop-up)
La Sécurité  Serpentine   Favoriting Stay Safe!  La Securite  2023  La Sécurité is a quintet bringing together singer-songwriters Laurence-Anne and Éliane Viens-Synnott, Félix Bélisle, member of Choses Sauvages , as well as Melissa Di Menna of Meta Gruau and Kenny Smith. The term “supergroup” has been used to qualify the members of La Sécurité . In an interview granted to Radio-Canada , Félix Bélisle stated that he was not very keen on the idea of ​​using this name to describe the band: "A supergroup doesn't exist here, in my opinion, because it's so small, Quebec is a microcosm”. From the first auditions, veteran music lovers will identify the glaring influences of the band: B-52's, Devo, Gang of Four , to name a few. However, where the group becomes particularly interesting is when it highlights the ascendants who made the golden age of Quebec new wave in the middle of the 1980s: Rational Youth, Trans-X and Men Without Hats...MAGNIFIQUE!  *   1:21:31 (Pop-up)
Little Simz feat. Obongjayar  Point And Kill   Favoriting Sometimes I Might Be Introvert  AGE 101  2021  Sometimes I Might Be Introvert is the fourth studio album by British/Nigerian rapper Little Simz. Little Simz commented: "I'm just very to myself and I didn't know how to really navigate that, especially coming in this industry where you're expected to have this extroverted persona all the time. I wanted to just let people know like, yo, I'm actually this way inclined […] When it comes to business and my work, I'm not shy at all, I don't hold back with that. I'm very serious and direct, but other stuff sometimes."    1:26:59 (Pop-up)
