Reverb-heavy weirdo pop is one of our most favorite genres out (we hope it’s one of yours too), a new entrant to the genre is Yellow Days and the stream for “So Terrified of Your Own Mind” from the Surrey UK artist’s s/t debut EP. Get into it.
Sydney AU duo Noire debut on B3SCI with the cooled out and spacious dream pop of “Real Cool”.
Ten Fe were one of the top live bands at The Great Escape 2017 and are on the verge of their first US shows including Bonnaroo, NY, LA, SF, and Philadelphia. Hear them talk about their music, their UK busking to raise funds, their thoughts on the US, and more.

Philadelphia four-piece Palm will release new “Shadow Expert” EP via the venerable Carpark Records on June 16th. “Shadow Expert”‘s first stream is “Walkie Talkie”, a broadside of guitar stabs and time signature swerves that sounds nothing like any other buzz band out right now (all that without losing any listenable-ness or potential for accessibility, too). Look out.
UK artist Sam Fender steps into Foals-esque power and accessibility on ostensibly debut track online, the menancing mid-tempo-er “Play God”.
Surrey UK singer Annabel Allum impresses with punchy but subtly hooky latest “Eat Greens”.
