OK, so I already praised this gem of a song (“Pressure Off”) in my review of Duran Duran’s new album, Paper Gods, but it’s one of the best tunes I’ve heard all year, and they’ve just released this nifty 360 lyric video, so I’m writing about it again… Not that there’s really anything I can…

PHASES, one of the best bands we’ve encountered since we started Love is Pop, is now streaming their new album, For Life, on Entertainment Weekly. Normally, we don’t make posts about things on other sites, but PHASES’ album is just too good for us not to share it with you. Who are PHASES? Longtime friends Z…

Duran Duran’s last album was 2010’s Mark Ronson-produced…

I first heard Halsey when I saw her live at Boston Calling music festival back in May. She was a replacement for someone who canceled at the last minute and by the end of her seductive set, I wanted to call up and thank whoever canceled for freeing up the slot for her. I’m pretty…

We have saved CHE-VAL’s luscious new single, “Love Still Waiting,” for the last day of the week so we could declare it not only #songoftheday but #songoftheweek as well, being that it’s the most addictive and well-crafted tune we’ve heard this week.

A year and a half ago, Painted Palms released their wonderful debut, Forever, which was an album full of diverse songs, which seemed to draw inspiration from such artists as Passion Pit, Best Coast, The Beach Boys and Of Montreal. On their new album, Horizons, it’s not so easy to discern their influences, as their…

Some songs can become too huge for their own good. Take Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe,” for example. For a few years there, it seemed like it would be her only mega-hit single.
