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 Julien Baker and Torres’ twangy, intimate duet, ‘Sugar in the Tank’; Masma Dream World’s ‘Please Come to Me’, which is both ethereal and nightmarish; Leeds duo lots of hands’ hushed, affecting new single ‘masquerade’; ‘Sea of Men’, the lead single from Baths’ next LP, a disarming foray into carnal desire; and Horsegirl’s latest single ‘Julie’, which is slightly more wistful than previous offerings, but just as lovely.
