This Week’s Best New Songs: Wild Pink, Japandroids, Chat Pile, and More

    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 Alan Sparhawk’s riveting, trap-inflected ‘Can U Hear’, the first preview of the Low singer and guitarist’s upcoming solo album; ‘The Fences of Stonehenge’, the fuzzy, shimmering lead single off Wild Pink’s new album; Militarie Gun’s slowly churning ‘Thought You Were Waving’; Japandroids’ soaring and earnest ‘Chicago’, which leads the band’s fourth and final LP; ‘I Am Dog Now’, the gnarly, pummeling first taste of Chat Pile’s sophomore album; Great Grandpa’s first new song in five years, the dreamy, sweeping ‘Kid’; oso oso’s shimmering new song ‘that’s what time does’; and ‘Skin on Skin’, the inviting, boygenius-produced new single from jasmine.4.t, the first UK artist to sign to Phoebe Bridgers’ Saddest Factory Records.
