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…

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.…

When David Bowie suddenly rushed back onto the scene with his surprise album The Next Day in 2013, I was elated. He’s long been one of my favorite artists — ever since his 1997 album Earthling — and I could not have been more pleased with the album. It was dark, edgy and experimental, an…

Diplo doesn’t need help from anyone else to create a mammoth EDM banger, but he’s collaborated with Sleepy Tom here anyway and you can thank your lucky stars that he did because the result is a truly invigorating beast of a song. It also features gorgeous vocals, an interpolation of Jade’s classic “Don’t Walk Away,”…

Are you among the 60 million people who’ve seen the zany video for Psy’s big comeback song “Daddy” yet? If not, click play above already! Do it! Suffice to say that Psy is back with his crazy dance moves, amusing sight gags, and lots of general weirdness. The song isn’t bad either. Actually, the song’s great.…

You’re probably thinking that Snow Patrol’s “Chasing Cars” is one of those magical songs that should never, ever be covered by anyone. That’s what I thought, too. Then we were approached about premiering the video for 14 year old Jack Rose’s version. We often pass on these things because we’re not going to premiere something…

Sometimes I really can’t tell what songs are about. This happens often when I listen to Tame Impala. But the lyrics here match up with the video, so if you watch it you’ll know. Or maybe it was written about something else and then they came up with this video and just made it fit.…

Adele’s last album, 21, has sold over 30 million copies worldwide. If you didn’t buy it, you’re probably only a two degrees away from someone who did. Some people even bought it twice, having to own it on CD and vinyl. (I just went with the vinyl.) Billboard dubbed it the “Greatest Album of All…

Just when you think you’ve already heard the best pop songs of 2015, along comes “Where Light Shines Brighter,” an addictive dance pop gem by Devon Seven, a half Danish, half Malaysian singer/songwriter hailing from Denmark. Although she’d experimented with various producers over the years, she finally decided that she wanted to do everything herself…

Kita Alexander is a rising 19 year old pop artist hailing from the Australian outback where she started playing guitar to kill time while working on her mother’s fruit stand; her family had their own avocado farm. She made her debut earlier this year with “My Own Way,” a killer track she wrote with Nicky…

“Nothing to regret / Nothing to prove,” goes CHVRCHES new single “Empty Threat,” a song which anyone who has bought their sophomore album Every Open Eye can tell you is brilliant. The verses are catchier than the choruses of most pop songs. And the chorus is, well, out of this world. Crazy good. If ever…

In 2010 Mylène Farmer, the most popular French artist in the world, surprised fans when she released her first album without longtime collaborator Laurent Boutonnat, Bleu Noir. Her formula with Boutonnat was simple: Laurent wrote the music and she wrote the lyrics. At least that’s how the credits read. I should think there were times…
