Throughout the week, we update our Best New Songs playlist with the new releases that caught our attention the most, be it a single leading up to the release of an album or a newly unveiled deep cut. And each Monday, we round up the best new songs released over the past week (the eligibility period begins on Monday and ends Sunday night) in this segment.
On this week’s list, we have ‘More’, the latest in a string of magnificent and haunting singles from Low’s upcoming album; Circuit des Yeux’s hypnotic ‘Dogma’, the lead single off Haley Fohr’s newly announced album -io; Ducks Ltd.’s deceptively upbeat, The Beths-featuring ‘How Lonely Are You?’, the second preview of their forthcoming debut; Bedouine’s wistfully gorgeous ‘The Wave’, which leads Azniv Korkejian’s latest LP; and Remi Wolf’s infectiously funky, “full on psycho” ‘Quiet on Set’.
