11 New Songs Out Today to Listen To: Bruce Springsteen, Mechatok, and More

There’s so much music coming out all the time that it’s hard to keep track. On those days when the influx of new tracks is particularly overwhelming, we sift through the noise to bring you a curated list of the most interesting new releases (the best of which will be added to our Best New Songs playlist). Below, check out our track roundup for Tuesday, June 10, 2025.


Bruce Springsteen – ‘Sunday Love’

Bruce Springsteen has unveiled ‘Sunday Love’, a tender, jazzy song from his lost album Twilight Hours that’s quite unlike anything he’s released before. “At one time it was either a double record [with Western Stars] or they were part of the same record,” Springsteen said. “I love Burt Bacharach, and I love those kinds of songs and those kinds of songwriters. I took a swing at it because the chordal structures and everything are much more complicated, which was fun for me to pull off. All this stuff could have come right off of those ’60s albums.” It’s the latest preview of his upcoming box set Tracks II: The Lost Albums.

Mechatok – ‘Expression on Your Face’ [feat. Ecco2k & Bladee]

Mechatok – aka Munich-born, Berlin-based artist Emir Timur Tokdemir – has announced his debut album, Wide Awake, arriving August 8 via Young. Today’s announcement comes with the release of the buzzing new single ‘Expression on Your Face’, which features vocals from Bladee and Ecco2k.

Double Wish – ‘Tattooed Heart’ 

Just months after releasing their latest EP, Double Wish have announced their self-titled debut album with the glimmering ‘Tattooed Heart’. “In a lot of ways,” the band explained, “‘Tattooed Heart’ exists in a liminal space. It is vivid and hazy, intimate and universal—where beauty and decay are inseparable. The lyrics are both a response to what is happening musically, and the result of mining the conscious and subconscious mind. ‘Tattooed Heart’ captures the sort of strange duality of feeling grounded one moment and completely disoriented the next. It’s a reflection on waning and longing.”

Matt Jencik & Midwife – ‘Rickety Ride’

Matt Jencik and Midwife have shared a new single from their upcoming collaborative LP Never Die, the vaporous, mesmerizing ‘Rickety Ride’. According to Jencic, it’s about “a random unplanned evening I had with someone many years ago.” He added: “Leaving work one night I bumped into a barista from the coffee shop across the street. She had also just finished working and was sitting alone at a table on the sidewalk drinking a bottle of wine. We started talking and she invited me over to her place to hang out. The next thing we knew we were at a neighborhood carnival then proceeded to haunt the streets of Pittsburgh for hours like proper nighthawks. It seemed like maybe the beginning of something but then it wasn’t. Over the following years I realized it was one of the best, most pure nights of my life. Total freedom without needing to tell anyone where I was or what I was doing. No mobile phone to track my every move. Freedom like that is so rare now unless you just go off the grid.”

Debby Friday – ‘Lipsync’

The latest preview of Debby Friday’s new album is a fiery slice of electro-rap. It comes paired with a video co-directed with frequent collaborator Kevan Funk.

Tyler Childers – ‘Nose on the Grindstone’

Country singer-songwriter Tyler Childers has announced a new album, Snipe Hunter, which he recorded with producer Rick Rubin and features additional production from Sylvan Esso’s Nick Sanbor. It comes out July 25, and the raw, eerie new single ‘Nose on the Grindstone’ is out now.

Buscabulla – ‘Miraverahí’

Ahead of the release of their new album Se Amaba Así, Puerto Rican indie duo Buscabulla have shared a slinky disco single called ‘Miraverahí’. “It’s a thumpy disco track about perceptions changing in a romantic relationship,” co-founder Raquel Berrios commented. “I wanted to play with the concept of vision, reflection, and disappearing to express the angst of trying to regain the loving feeling between two people.”

Robin Kester – ‘An Hour Per Day’

Robin Kester has unveiled a beautiful new track called ‘An Hour Per Day’, lifted from the forthcoming LP Dark Sky Reserve. “I was stuck in my head and struggling to write. So, I followed some simple advice: spend one hour a day doing something you love,” Kester explained. “For me, that became working on this song. What started as a guitar-based demo and a piano noodle grew into a layered, mostly instrumental track shaped by intuitive improvisation, tension, and happy accidents.”

Yttling Jazz – ‘Illegal Hit’

Yttling Jazz – the project spearheaded by Björn Yttling of Peter Björn and John – have announced their first new album in 20 years, Illegal Hit – out September 26 – and released the title track. “The main riff is sort of floating around in space like some debris that you sometimes can see and sometimes not,” Yttling explained. “Starts with a cool delay drenched drumbeat and then an even cooler bass solo by Dan Berglund. An illegal hit is still a hit, whether it’s in hockey, tennis or music.”

Hard Chiller – ‘Soft Trip’

Hard Chiller have dropped ‘Soft Trip’, the grungy second single from their debut LP BABY!.  “It reminds me of the stuff on the radio around 2002, when really heavy songs could dominate if the hooks were real,” the band’s Joe Vannuncchi said. “I love that it’s relentlessly heavy and combines some of the stuff from that era but it also tricks the listener into forgetting that it has two key shifts. Some of my favorite pop songs of all time manage to be very tricky without the listener noticing, which is a triumph.”

Dancer – ‘Just Say Yes’

Glasgow indie rock outfit Dancer have announced a new album to follow up last year’s 10 Songs I Hate About You. Their sophomore LP, More or Less, arrives September 12, and it’s led by the anxious new single ‘Just Say Yes’.
