Keeley Forsyth Shares Video for New Song ‘I Stand Alone’

Keeley Forsyth has previewed her upcoming album Limbs with a new single called ‘I Stand Alone’. Following the previously released song ‘Bring Me Water’, the new track arrives today alongside a music video produced in collaboration with Ross Downes and Neil Cain. Check it out below.

“The song uses words as murmurs in a moment of realisation,” Forsyth explained in a press statement. “Strengthening autonomy and protecting human dignity, even at its most dark and surreal. It’s a survival song in essence.”

She added: “We shot the video over two bitterly cold countryside days. We took influence from the cinematic traditions of folkloric horror and British rural gothic, as well as respectfully referencing Carl Dreyer’s classic The Passion Of Joan Of Arc, where the concentration and focus is on the main protagonist’s face and expressions, shot in intimate close-ups. We were keen to capture the absurdist aspect of the character ignoring her predicament, and staying committed to her own ‘truth’, in spite of what society may throw at her.”

Limbs is slated for release on February 25 via The Leaf Label.

Methyl Ethel Announces New Album, Collaborates With Stella Donnelly on New Song

Methyl Ethel has announced a new album, Are You Haunted?, which is set for release on February 18 via Future Classic. Along with the announcement, the Australian artist – real name Jake Webb – has shared a new collaboration with Stella Donnelly called ‘Proof’. The track comes with an accompanying video directed by Webb. Check it out below.

“Stella is one of the most truth-telling artists I’ve ever heard,” Webb commented in a statement. Donnelly added, “It made for a perfect match. Working on ‘Proof’ with Jake felt like being invited to the set of your favourite movie, such an insightful and wonderful experience.”

To make his fourth album, Webb returned to the studio where he recorded and wrote his first material as Methyl Ethel. “A dear friend of mine recently passed away, the studio is his,” he explained. “I spent many years of experimentation with him, learning so much looking over his shoulder. It feels special to continue to share the space with his ghost, I’m still learning from him.”

Methyl Ethel’s last album, Triage, came out in 2019. That same year, Donnelly released her debut full-length, Beware of the Dogs.

Arab Strap Release New Single ‘Aphelion’

Arab Strap have released a new single, ‘Aphelion’, which is available digitally today. A limited edition 7″ will arrive on March 4 via Rock Action Records, featuring the previously unreleased track ‘Flutter’. Listen to ‘Aphelion’ below.

“These two songs were written, recorded and mixed during the sessions for As Days Get Dark but as much as we loved them, we couldn’t find a place for them on the final album,” Aidan Moffat explained in a press release.  “Maybe it’s because they seem to have their own distinct identities, but sometimes a song just sounds better on its own, when it’s not part of a crowd and vying for attention. So, to celebrate the anniversary of the album’s release, we present As Days Get Dark‘s two runaway loners; a couple of black sheep who might not click with the rest of the family but, even though they aren’t very happy, are still worth a cuddle.”

Last year, Arab Strap returned with their first album since 2006, As Days Get Dark.

Violet Skies Releases New Single ‘The Internet’

Having co-written hits for Diana Ross, LÉON, Mabel and Tiësto, and more, Chepstow artist Violet Skies has released a new single called ‘The Internet’. Check it out below.

“’The Internet’ was written after I stayed up one night looking up an ex on the internet,” the singer-songwriter explained in a statement. “I didn’t feel compelled to call them, or speak to them, or even want to see them – but I wanted to know how they were doing. It’s a complicated mix of curiosity, caring and a little comparison too.”

She added: “We all check on our exes (you’re lying if you don’t my darlings!!), and I wanted to write about this in a way that explained that heady combination of all these feelings + internet weirdness.”

Lees Unveils New Single ‘Night Wars’

Lees has unveiled a new single called ‘Night Wars’. The song was created remotely over lockdown with writers Liam Howe (Lana Del Rey, Nilufer Yanya) and Eg White (Adele, Paloma Faith). Check it out below.

“I wrote ‘Night Wars’ at the end of a relationship when I was still hoping that things would work out,” Lees explained in a statement. “The damage was deep but there was still a love between us, I kept holding onto this romanticised idea that a grand gesture could make it all better – that he’d suddenly come through and be the person I needed him to be.”

‘Night Wars’ is set to appear on Lees’ upcoming debut EP, which will include the early singles ‘Honeymoon Suite’ and ‘California’. It’s due for release on February 23.

Ed Schrader’s Music Beat Announce New Album, Release New Songs

The Baltimore-based duo Ed Schrader’s Music Beat have announced a new album. The follow-up to 2018’s Riddles is called Nightclub Daydreaming, and it’s out on March 25 via Carpark. They’ve also shared two new songs along with the announcement, ‘This Thirst’ and ‘Berliner’. Take a listen below.

Ed Schrader and Devlin Rice started working on their fourth LP in 2019. The idea was to make a record that was “fun, danceable,” and they road tested songs the songs ‘This Thirst’, ‘Echo Base’, and ‘Black Pearl’ in early 2020 with drummer Kevin O’Meara, whose death in October 2020 weighed heavily on the duo as they worked on the album. As a result, Schrader described the aesthetic that permeates Nightclub Daydreaming as “mad euphoria in the face of doom.”

“The fun thing about this record is that it’s all at once informed by our more recent lush productions with Dan Deacon, yet spartan and boiled-down, exuding a coldness wrapped in ecstasy, following our time honored trend of never giving people what they expect, but hopefully what they want,” Schrader added in a press release.

3. Eutaw Strut
4. European Moons
5. Hamburg

9. Berliner

Lou Roy Announces Debut Album ‘Pure Chaos’, Shares New Song ‘Uppercut’

Lou Roy has announced her debut album: Pure Chaos arrives on April 29 via Balloon Machine. The LP was co-produced by Sarah Tudzin of illuminati hotties and includes the previously released single ‘Valkyrie’, which landed on our Best New Songs segment. To accompany the announcement, Roy has today shared a new track called ‘Uppercut’. Give it a listen below.

The inspiration for ‘Uppercut’ came from Roy’s admiration for Las Vegas. Talking about it on MUNA’s Gayotic podcast, she explained: “Las Vegas is the funniest, sweetest thing we could have done as humans. I acknowledge that it’s fucked up but it started with us being in the middle of the desert and asking, ‘What do we like? Games, nudity, lights and money’ and making a playground out of that. It’s hedonism at it’s finest and while it may have failed spectacularly, the initial endeavour was fucking awesome.”
