The delicious and highly potent “Moonshine” is the third track to be released from Lamb’s The Secret Of Letting Go, which will be out on April 26th, and it’s certainly something new from the duo.

Today Chlöe Howl, one of our favorite UK pop singers, releases her new single, “Millionaire.” It’s a song that’s full of hard, punchy beats, flourishes of guitar and an air of trap music with its occasional hi-hats stuttering along.

“Kiev” is the second single from Vanessa Paradis’ 7th studio album, Les Sources. It’s my favorite song from the album, which is a bit of a departure for Paradis as it’s her first album that really has more to do with telling stories and l’amour than it does with being catchy.

Robbie Williams seems to be juggling three careers these days. There’s the mega pop star who last released the album Heavy Entertainment Show in 2016. There’s the swing and jazz star who last released Swings Both Ways in 2013. And there’s the “b-sides” star who’ll be releasing the third volume in his Under the Radar…

Buckcherry’s new album Warpaint isn’t out until March 8th, but they’ve already blessed us with the first single, a kick-ass rendition of Nine Inch Nails’ “Head Like A Hole,” which happens to be my all-time favorite Nine Inch Nails song.

Lick Neon has been gathering quite the following from playing basements and bars around their home city (and Love is Pop’s nearest big city) of Boston, but since their adorable folk-pop song “Slip” went live on Spotify about a month ago, they’ve already racked up over 30,000 streams. Considering what a touching song it is,…

“CES MOTS SIMPLES,” the beautiful new single by Vanessa Paradis, translates as “these simple words.” The video of Vanessa swinging with water below her, which she dips her tip-toes in, is rather simple, too.

If you love “the Bristol sound” made popular by Tricky, Massive Attack and Portishead, among others, then you’re going to be tickled pink in a good way by “Bones,” the debut single by FFS, otherwise known as For Fucks Sake, the new project by James of Arth and Arth fame, who I interviewed back in July.

“Is This A Thing” is a thing. A big thing. A slice of pop heaven that does several different things right. First of all, the song starts off in the electro-pop vein, which always scores lots of points with me. Secondly, the bass guitar during the chorus (and other parts of the song) is killer.

interview by Michael McCarthy Sydney Banta has been known as L.A. Girlfriend for as long as most critics and bloggers can remember. And they do remember her. Most of them raved about her when she put out her first EP roughly 10 years ago and they haven’t stopped talking about her since. Right now, she’s…
