29 New Songs Out Today

So many artists, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we'd call "indie," and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. We update a playlist weekly of some of our current favorite tracks.

It’s super off the cuff lyrically, almost ad-libbed, and you can hear me starting to figure out some album themes..." About "Hold No Grudge," she says the song "is a sort of composite portrait of when relationships turn sour, being trapped in the ice but remembering the warmth."
