It’s very fitting that the cover of Pillar Point’s sophomore effort, Marble Mouth, is quite colorful, bursting with sweet red, tangy orange, vibrant yellow, groovy green and electric blue. Plus, a little black thrown in for good measure, perhaps to represent the dark side within all of us. It’s one of those instances where you…

Well, folks, today we have news from Kanye West… He has tweeted the tracklist for his new album, SWISH, about which he tweeted “so happy to be finished with the best album of all time.” But what the list reads isn’t entirely clear. We see “Waves,” “High Lights,” “80 Hours,” “No More Parties in LA,” “Fade,”…

by Michael McCarthy If you like pop music that’s as addictive as chocolate but also has an air of sophistication about it, you’re in for a real treat with the music of 19 year old Kita Alexander, a rising pop star who’s been getting airplay from the likes of such influential stations as Beats 1, Radio 1 and…

Now, here’s Bitter’s Kiss with “No One Will,” a song you could look at many different ways. She could be singing these things about how “no one will ever kiss me” and such because she’s self-loathing, like she doesn’t think she’s worthy of being kissed. It could also be that she’s just fiercely independent and…

So, it turns out that Iggy Pop’s album with Josh Homme, Dean Fertita, and Matt Helders is simply being released as an Iggy Pop album called Post Pop Depression, though all four are pictured on the album cover, assuming that is what we’re seeing in the player above. Is this the most immediately infectious song…

POP ETC recently released a very addictive album called Souvenir. Every song on it is irresistible, each one a shiny, golden pop nugget.

It’s been a couple of years since we’ve heard new music from Elisa, one of Italy’s most celebrated singer/songwriters (who mostly sings in English), but I can certainly say that her new single “No Hero” was well worth the wait. I’m truly blown away by this one, which starts off sounding like her Rainbow era…

by Michael McCarthy As some of you may recall, I published a heavy metal zine back in the ’90s before I started writing for actual magazines like LiveWire and Lollipop (rest in peace x2). It was called ANT, The Only Cool Magazine That Bites. (Weird title, but, hey, people remembered it.) I’m bringing this up…

Everyone knows I’m a sucker for a good ballad, but today’s #songoftheday is much, much better than good. It’s touching with its perfect arrangement, not to mention his beautiful voice and the haunting lyrics… I doubt I’ll hear many ballads this precious all year. It’s that moving.

Love is Pop is extra excited to have the full line-up for May 2016’s Boston Calling, especially since it’s their most amazing line-up yet. We love all three of the headliners this time: Sia, Disclosure and Robyn. We’re also psyched about Haim, Miike Snow, City & Colour, Christine and the Queens, BØRNS and The Vaccines. Here’s…

If you’re a metalhead who appreciates classical music, look no further than Exmortus and their fantastic new album Ride Forth, their second for the Prosthetic label. The Whittier, California-based band blends elaborate, classical-influenced guitar solos with double bass thrash drums, often proggy bass guitar and death metal vocals for a sound that is unique and…

Emmy The Great once again lives up to her name! “Algorithm” finds Emmy’s voice at the forefront, as she gently sings things like “pumping through my brain, it’s an algorithm,” her voice pretty as a peach. “Talk to me like you’re walking me home / Tell me something nobody knows,” goes one of the verses.…

There are so many DJs and producers out there making their own music these days… And, let’s face it, most of them suck. They lay down some punchy EDM beats, find a woman with a pretty voice to sing over them, and that’s it. You’re lucky if there are a few layers of other assorted…
