Receiving particular acclaim following the release of 2021's album Ignorance, The Weather Station has spent the intervening years refining a particular blend of indie, folk, and jazz, through to their newly released record Humanhood. "Mirror," the album's third track and most recent single, epitomizes that style, just as its accompanying video realizes it into a wider spectrum of the senses.
An oil portrait of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
While one hopes in light of it's rediscovery that somewhere, somehow there might still be more great music waiting to be found, buried in the annals of time. That said, should this indeed be the last word of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to time immemorial, then its a fitting, if quiet, one - no great Requiem Mass or seminal Opera Buffa, just one last little treat from one of the most effortlessly luminous musical imaginations in recorded history.

Propelled forward by a steady, demure drum groove and rounded out by silky-smooth bass licks and vibrant keys, the various elements of "Set Your Spirit Free" weave a light-as-air, jazz-style tapestry in which every individual thread feels like lead line unto itself, while remaining inherently laced to the others in service of the greater whole.

"Hymn to Virgil" mines elements from almost as many musical idioms as its source material did characters from classical myth. It evokes a cavernous yet dense atmosphere thick as an arboreal mist and heavy as six feet of soil, and from that fertile sonic ground springs something that sounds like indie folk gone dark pop gone movie score.

While the original "Love Insurrection" was in and of itself a trippy, funky feather in Primal Scream's cap, Black Science Orchestra's take is a welcome, nostalgic trip back to the sounds that brought both artists to the fore. More than that, it's also proof that regardless of disparities in time or genre, there's something irresistible at the core of Primal Scream's sound that is immediately and distinctly theirs from iteration to iteration.

Joey Wit’s ROSE GOLD arrives like a shot in the arm for the indie/alt rock rock scene, blending introspection with the kind of kinetic energy that’s destined to leave a mark. If you are a fan of Silversun Pickups, The Stone Roses, or Oasis, this album is for you.

From "Yellow" to "Viva La Vida" through to more recent chart toppers like "My Universe," Coldplay singles have been a near constant presence in the records of popular music. It's difficult, then, to imagine that chain finally breaking - and deliberately, at that. Nevertheless, lead singer Chris Martin alleges that the band's latest release, "ALL MY LOVE," is not only to be the final single to accompany their recent Moon Music LP, but also the last proper single of Coldplay's career.
The cover of the single "Alone" by the Cure
Though frontman Robert Smith might protest easy categorization, The Cure are without a doubt one of the seminal gothic rock bands of all time. Pop-twinged and radio friendly hits like "Friday I'm in Love" or "Just Like Heaven" exist alongside the kind of haunting, angst-filled odes like "One Hundred Years" or "Lullaby" that helped define the goth rock phenomenon. "Alone," the legendary band's first new release in well over a decade and the lead single from their upcoming album Songs of a Lost World, sees the band return to that latter sort of peak brooding form after a considerable hiatus.
Up-and-coming indie quartet Nicotine Dolls take their name from an epithet the band's members coined to describe a particular breed of anti-social partygoer who would rather retreat to outdoor solitude for a quick drag than endure a crowd, so it's a bit ironic that the band is perhaps best known in the public eye for similarly shunning the limelight.

Earlier this week, Vancouver-based Indie darlings Peach Pit dropped their new track "Magpie" in advance of its eagerly anticipated, similarly titled parent album. Magpie's October 25th release will be the band's most recent since 2022's From 2 to 3, with this titular single being their first musical offering since that album's "Vicky." "Magpie" sees Peach Pit - who have previously characterized their music as "chewed bubblegum pop" - coloring their trademark aesthetics with layers of rich harmonic fuzz. No pun intended.
