Album review
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 best new music segment.
On this week’s list, we have the dazzling, propulsive ‘Carbon Dioxide’, the lead single from Fever Ray’s first album in five years; Hatchie’s fiery and exhilarating new track ‘Nosedive’; Pile’s dizzyingly intense new single ‘Loops’, which leads their new album All Fiction; ‘Old Soul’, a beguiling highlight from Breanna Barbara’s sophomore LP; ‘When I Die’, a sweeping track off the deluxe edition of Sharon Van Etten’s latest album; and Heather Trost’s haunting Desert Flowers ballad ‘Black Is the Night’.
