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, February 10, 2026.
MUNA – ‘Dancing on the Wall’
MUNA have announced their fourth album, Dancing on the Wall. The follow-up to their 2020 self-titled LP arrives May 8 via Saddest Factory/Secretly. The band’s Naomi McPherson produced the record, which is led by the ebullient title track. “We think it’s all the best parts of MUNA – it’s coming from a really emotional and lonely place, but the song itself makes us feel powerful and euphoric,” they said. “It’s written in the moment that the clock strikes midnight at the ball, and you have to give up the fantasy. In this case, it’s the fantasy of loving someone or something that can’t love you back.”
Lip Critic – ‘Legs on a Snare’
NYC-based electro-punk band Lip Critic have announced a new LP, Theft World, which is due May 1 via Partisan Records. The off-kilter, ominous lead single ‘Legs on Snare’ arrives alongside a music video from director Colter Fellows. “Theft World is an ode to the power and pervasiveness of stealing,” the band explained. “It’s about taking something ugly and using it to make something cute. It’s about eating an absurd world and falling in love with it as you digest.”
The New Pornographers – ‘Pure Sticker Shock’
The New Pornographers have previewed their upcoming album The Former Site Of with an introspective synthpop tune called ‘Pure Sticker Shock’. “This song is not about a specific event, but it has felt very ‘applicable’ to me and this year of my life,” frontperson A.C. Newman explained. “It basically asks the question ‘What has worth? Who is deciding?’ Your market value is not always your value.”
Robber Robber – ‘Watch For Infection’
Robber Robber have shared a new single, ‘Watch for Infection’, from their forthcoming LP Two Wheels Move the Soul. “Real emotions and moments inspired the feelings of ‘Watch for Infection,’ but the story is made up,” the band’s Nina Cates said of the spiky, ironically infectious track. “Internal dialogue, ‘Watch for Infection’ as a reminder to take care of your shit and don’t let it bring you down in perpetuity. Don’t get bitter.”
Bonnie “Prince” Billy – ‘Hey Little’
‘Hey Little’, the latest single from Bonnie “Prince” Billy’s new album We Are Together Again, warmed my heart before I got to read about its backstory. As Will Oldham tells it, the song “was written years ago for someone else to sing. Now I am a father; the lyrics are realigned and rearranged. Catherine Irwin sings with great soul. I asked Ryder McNair to listen to Madonna’s ‘Dear Jessie’ for inspiration on the string arrangements. Brent Stewart and his daughter Maya brought a creative partnership to the video-making process. The shoot was seamless and joyful. Brent spoke of wanting to incorporate double-exposure (they shot on film) and I mentioned the Burt Lancaster film The Swimmer. Both Maya and Brent jumped on that idea with gusto, and friends here in Louisville let us film in their indoor pool in the dead of winter. Notable of course is Thomas Deakin’s beautiful clarinet solo. And the real live goats. ”
deathcrash – ‘NYC’
The upcoming deathcrash LP, Somersaults, spans various geographical locations. Its latest and arguably most emotional single, ‘NYC’, is out today. “We used to joke that our third album would be called ‘California Tonight’,” vocalist and guitarist Tiernan Banks recalled. “I spent weeks failing to convince the others that this really was a beautiful image that encapsulated everything we wanted to say with our music. I wrote the song to prove that point, though California Tonight became more about New York in the end.”
Fcukers – ‘Beatback’
NY-based duo Fcukers have served up an infectious new single, ‘Beatback’, from their forthcoming debut album Ö. It comes paired with a video directed by the band’s own Shanny Wis.
Anjiimle – ‘Waits for Me’
“When I was a little girl, I wanted to be free,” Anjimile sings on his new single ‘Waits for Me’, later strikingly adding: “When I was a little boy, I wanted to be real.” The tenderly shimmering track is taken from the North Carolina singer-songwriter’s upcoming album You’re Free to Go.
GUM – ‘Celluloid’
Jay Watson, known for his band POND and as a touring member of Tame Impala, has announced a new album under the moniker GUM. Blue Gum Way arrives March 6, and its sinewy, propulsive new single ‘Celluloid’ is out today. “Everything feels worse in the middle of the night, it’s where peak worry and catastrophizing happens,” Watson commented. “Exacerbated by a slow death from blue screen light and brain rot.”
Gregory Uhlmann – ‘Burnt Toast’
Gregory Uhlmann has unveiled ‘Burnt Toast’, the second single from his forthcoming album Extra Stars. The curious, buoyant composition comes with a performance video filmed by Mark Pallman at International Anthem Studios in Chicago.
White Fence – ‘Your Eyes’
White Fance are back with a new album, Orange, which was recorded with producer Ty Segall at his Harmonizer II studio. “Love/loss, addiction/rehabilitation, and a good long look in the mirror (by way of a shop window reflection in San Francisco),” Tim Presley reflected. “But also the absurdity of life….. I wanted to sing my little heart out. Sing life.”
waterbaby – ‘Clay’ [feat. ttoh]
weaterbaby has teamed up with rapper ttoh for a wistful ballad called ‘Clay’, the latest preview of waterbaby’s forthcoming Memory Be a Blade. ttoh also appeared on the previous single ‘Beck N Call’.
Lizzie Reid – ‘Sweet Relief’ [feat. Hamish Hawk]
Lizzie Reid has announced a new EP, Undoing, out April 19, with the dark, jagged single ‘Sweet Relief’. The track features Hamish Hawk on guest vocals. “‘Sweet Relief’ speaks of my experience dealing with the full throws of obsession, rumination, depression, and panic,” Reid expounded. “The way I desperately attempted to comfort myself only brought momentary relief from the storm. The cycle is brutal, exhausting and incredibly sneaky. The more I searched for solutions, the murkier the waters became, making it near impossible for light to come into the frame. The temptation and urgency to ‘fix myself’ is a voice that appears to want to help, but in fact was keeping me in the cycle of darkness to relief to darkness again.”
more eaze – ‘healing attempt’
‘healing attempt’, the final single from more eaze’s upcoming full-length sentence structure in the country, features Wendy Eisenberg on backing vocals. On X, the experimental artist called it “probably the most prog more eaze song,” and it walks a fine line between gentle and unnerving.
Katzin – ‘Cowboy’
Katzin has shared ‘Cowboy’, the latest single from the New York singer-songwriter’s debut album Buckaroo ahead of its release this Friday. “We had about six or seven tunes for the album already, and we wanted a standout, shiny, loud song,” Katzin said. “So we sat down and wrote ‘Cowboy’ together. It felt like we were really in lockstep. It just came out so seamlessly. The kick drum on that song is actually the sound of my boots banging on the wooden deck in his backyard.”
