Attenzione! Second Dinner is served. The new single, and accompanying visual, from Donny Benét is out now. It’s a hooky, groove-driven, and unashamed ode to the dopamine inducing late night meal.

After releasing his fourth album The Don in March 2018,…

Lina Tullgren shares a new video ‘Saiddone,’ the third and final single from their forthcoming album Free Cell, out 23 August via Captured Tracks. Directed by Jack Gobillot, the ‘Saiddone‘ video stars Lina and ends in an alien encounter.

The song speaks indirectly to how we all try to reconcile emotions with rationality, and how that can be a self-alienating process….

Melbourne’s jade imagine release their debut LP Basic Love. Featuring singles ‘The News,’ ‘Remote Control’ and ‘Big Old House,’ the album is out now on Milk! Records.

Sleater-Kinney have shared the fourth single off The Center Won’t Hold, their new album out 16 August. Watch the lyric video below. ‘Can I Go On’ pulls the listener in with its upbeat, hooky guitar riffs and catchy chorus, but delivers a contrastingly pained message of existential despair; “Sell our rage, buy and trade, but we still cry for free every day…… maybe I’m not sure I wanna go on at all.”…
