Soulwax have shared a new single, “New Earth Time”, off their upcoming album “All Systems Are Lying” out October 17th via DEEWEE / Because Music.
A press release for the album states this: “‘All Systems Are Lying’ was built entirely from modular synths, live drums, tape machines and processed vocals. It’s a fractured mirror held up to modern society on the brink – where truth is distorted by filters, algorithms and noise.”

Deaf Club have shared the second single, “All Hot Dogs Are In-Bread”, off their upcoming album “We Demand A Permanent State Of Happiness” to be released September 19th via Southern Lord and Three One G.
Justin Pearson shared this about the song: “I’m honestly not even sure where to start with this. The entire album, and seemingly everything I do has a negative slant to it. Without sounding like a chump or a dweeb, this is clearly a mean motherfucker world. I’m exhausted, and all the time. Even with certain privileges, and basic things like clean water, or a roof over my head, I am exhausted by how humans are constantly acting a fool. I see you. We are shitting the bed, and certainly shitting on each other. So this one’s for you, humanity, or I guess lack of it, which is the narcissist equivalent void of something trivial that represents a two-for-one $.99 hot dog at a convenience store that we’ll gladly suck down.”
Geese have shared the third single, “100 Horses” off their upcoming album “Getting Killed” out September 26th via Partisan Records.
The label’s press release said this about the song: “The band’s new single is the rambling, groovy rock tune that welcomes global collapse with open arms, propelled forward by a steadily chugging rhythm section and muddied guitars that soundtrack Cameron’s absurdist apocalyptic dance party.”
Daniel Avery has shared the second single, “Greasy Off The Racing Line” featuring Alison Mosshart, off his upcoming album “Tremors” out October 31st via Domino.
The video for the song was directed by Zak Watson.
Daniel Avery shared this about the song: “In many ways ‘Greasy off the Racing Line’ is the oil-soaked central cog of the album. A late-night drive through the darkened roads of the record. I’ve dreamt of working with Alison Mosshart for years – the first Kills music hit at the perfect time in my life, just as I was starting to make my own way out into the nighttime, Alison’s voice literally soundtracking some of my most formative footsteps into the most exciting of worlds. I love everything she has done, she’s as real as they come and it’s an honour to have her be a part of this Tremor collective.”
Kneecap have shared a new single, “Sayonara”, the song is available now via Heavenly / PIAS.
The video for the song was directed by Finn Keenan, and he shared this about it: “The intensity and ominous tone of ‘Sayõnara’ reminded me of both the best nights out and the brutal days that followed. That’s what sparked the idea. But I wanted to turn a typical dance video on its head and focus on the aftermath and how the chemicals in your body change as the week progresses. I wanted to capture the visceral intensity of paranoia and intrusive thoughts. Somehow, that “never again” anxiety of Monday slowly shifts by Friday into a “Weekend is here. Monday will never happen again! ” optimism.”
The video stars Jamie Lee O’Donnell and she shared this about it: “I had the best time filming the ‘Sayōnara’ music video. Not only is it a massive banger of a track but the intense yet euphoric video is sure to be remembered. The creativity and vision of director, Finn, created a fantastic environment for us all to create something really special. I was delighted to have been asked to be involved in this project especially as I am already a huge fan of Kneecap’s music and an admirer of their work overall.”
Tim Heidecker And The Very Good Band played the Casbah on August 22nd.
Spoon have shared 2 (two) new songs today, “Chateau Blues” & “Guess I’m Fallin In Love”, off what will be their upcoming, still untitled, new album.
Britt Daniel shared this about the songs: “We started work on an album this year and the way that normally goes, we write, we rehearse, we record, we mix, we get it all wrapped up tightly and then start putting songs out into the world. But as we finished up the first two songs for the LP, it crossed somebody’s mind and eventually all of ours that these two really should come out now. Let’s get them out there. And so here they are today, “Chateau Blues” and “Guess I’m Fallin In Love.” Two new tunes with distinct personalities that were summoned into the world the past few months in Austin TX and Providence RI. It’s a big day all around: we will be on a tour run with the Pixies — let’s face it, one of theee great bands of all TIMES. A band that some may know has long been near and dear to me. It’s a real pleasure and we’re real happy to be getting back into gig world for a sec. See you down front.”
The Sophes have shared a new single, “For The First Time” a cover from Mac Demarco, just ahead of their tour.
