Tomato Flower Unveil New Single ‘Destroyer’

Tomato Flower have released a new single called ‘Destroyer’. It follows the Baltimore quartet’s 2022 EPs Gold Arc and Construction. Check it out below, alongside an accompanying video directed by the band’s Austyn Wohlers.

“‘Destroyer’ came out all at once in a period of sleeplessness and turmoil and then was sharpened through collaboration,” singer/guitarist Jamison Murphy explained in a statement. “It’s about seeing shadow people, but there’s a reversal, and the speaker becomes possessed, becomes the destroyer.”

Shirley Collins Announces New Album ‘Archangel Hill’, Releases New Song

Shirley Collins has announced a new album, Archangel Hill, which is due for release on May 26 via Domino. The first single to be lifted from the record is ‘High and Away’, which features lyrics by collaborator Pip Barnes. Listen to it below.

Talking about the origins of the song, Barnes explained in a statement: “There is a passage in Shirley’s book ‘America Over The Water’ where she relays a conversation with the Arkansas singer Almeda Riddle in 1959. It begins: ‘She told of the tricks a tornado can play’ and goes on to give four or five examples. Whenever I heard Shirley read this, I would note that alliterative and rhythmic first line of the passage, and the vividness of the images of a tornado’s doings, and say to myself, ‘There’s a song here, it’s almost written itself.’ I wrote the words, but with no strong idea of a tune for it, other than that it seemed to suggest itself into ¾ time. Shirley obliged with a tune of her own devising, and Ian with its arrangement.”

Collins’ last album, Heart’s Ease, came out in 2020.

This Is the Kit Announce New Album, Share Video for New Single ‘Inside Outside’

This Is the Kit have announced a new album titled Careful of Your Keepers. Produced by Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals, the follow-up to 2020’s Off Off On will arrive June 9 via Rough Trade. On the lead single ‘Inside Outside’, out today, singer-songwriter Kate Stables is joined by her band of Rozi Plain (on bass and vocals), guitarist Neil Smith, and drummer Jamie Whitby-Coles, with a horn quartet arrangement by Jesse Vernon. Check out its Hannah Owen-directed video below, and scroll down for the album cover and tracklist.

Discussing the song’s lyrics, Stables reflected in a press release:

What makes things happen? How much choice do we have? Electricity and chemistry that is out of our control? Chewing. Choosing. Internal forces or external ones? Do we just behave the way people expect us to behave?

Or do they pre-empt what’s happening? Before it’s happened? Because they can see it in us before we know it ourselves? Big change that has been brewing for longer than we realise. Were we just ignoring it? Was it so deeply buried? Or did we see it all along but chose to ignore it? How much does anything change? Or is it just the way we see it that changes?

Of the new LP, she added: “The album was nearly called Goodbye Bite. And in a way it still is. I went for Careful of Your Keepers in the end. It’s one of my favourite songs on the album, a song that for me holds the general feeling of the album as a whole. The fragility of things. Of situations. Of relationships. Of humans. What we do to look after each other and ourselves. The passing of time and what that does to us, and how we live our lives going forward.”

Asher White Announces New Album ‘New Excellent Woman’, Unveils New Single

Asher White has announced a new LP, New Excellent Woman, which comes out May 26 via Ba Da Bing. The 22-year-old Rhode Island artist has today shared the first preview of the record, ‘Skate Park Anthem’. Check it out along with the cover artwork and tracklist below.

Speaking about the new track, White explained in a statement:

It’s a slapstick take on some very specific dynamics that take place between the locals of Providence, RI and the often exploitative and naive college students. The East Side of Providence has a pretty intense “town vs. gown” dynamic wherein the locals are constantly negotiating with this hoard of elite ivy-league students. Brown and RISD are two enormously wealthy institutions with a pretty extractive and irresponsible history with the city. This song honors a group of Providence skater boys I knew who resented the rich RISD kids but would also go to RISD parties to hang out and get laid and stuff. It was this kind of romeo-juliet lustful hatefucking (hence the everclear reference) that I saw as mutual exploitation: it gave the RISD kids clout to hang with locals, but we were ultimately very naive tourists to people who actually belong there. I plopped in the random virtuosic jazz guitar solos by my friend Maya Polsky to drive this home and charge the track with a manic pulse.

SBTRKT Enlists Toro y Moi for New Single ‘Days Go By’

SBTRKT has teamed up with Toro y Moi for the new single ‘Days Go By’. It’s the latest offering from his upcoming album The Rat Road, following ‘Waiting’ and ‘Forward’. Check it out below.

“A lot of my prior press coverage was as a masked, elusive character,” SBTRKT’s Aaron Jerome remarked in a statement. “My storyline became attached to the mask. A lot has been projected onto or written for me, diluting what I actually created and then, that being attributed to others around me.”

“There were many aspects to the music business which sat opposed to this and I realised it was time to re-evaluate who I worked with or what I was wanting to achieve or create,” he continued. “The point was that I was resetting. I’ve never felt comfortable having to chase the herd. I have always followed my own instinct and independence in what I’m creating and how and where to release music.”

The Rat Road, SBTRKT’s first new LP in seven years, is out on May 5.

Heather Woods Broderick Unveils Video for New Single ‘Wherever I Go’

Ahead of the release of her new album Labyrinth this Friday (April 7), Heather Woods Broderick has offered one more preview. It’s called ‘Wherever I Go’, and it follows previous cuts ‘Blood Run Through Me’, ‘Crashing Against the Sun’, and ‘Admiration’. The track arrives with an accompanying Jeremy Johnstone-directed video, which you can check out below.

“The video for ‘Wherever I Go’ is about the juxtaposition of having some fun, and letting go against the repetitive nature of daily life,” Broderick explained in a statement. “The song has both a lot of irony and energy in it, and we wanted to reflect this visually. The duality in the lyrics is paralleled inside the day that takes place in the video. The repetitions in daily life are playfully represented in the suburban scenes decorated by glitchy/GIF companions, and the wide open landscape shots reflect the free, pure joy that exists inside each day if you go find it. The video was conceptualized and directed by Jeremy Johnstone. Movement direction by Kacie Boblitt. It features Juliet Johnstone, Erick Eiser, Elke Shari Van den Broeck, Daniel Sparks, and Corrina Repp.”

Cheekface Share New Single ‘Popular 2’

Cheekface have dropped a new song called ‘Popular 2’. It’s the Los Angeles band’s second single of 2023, following January’s ‘The Fringe’. Check out a lyric video for it below.

“Even though I’m worried about the surveillance state that the government has set up, and many of us rightly think it’s a tool of state oppression, we still spy on our own friends and neighbors and total strangers through our own means that we’ve set up ourselves,” singer/guitarist Greg Katz said of the track in a statement. “And just like the government, we develop our own paranoiac theories about what those people are doing, but we’re really maybe just reflecting our own loneliness. Me and [bassist] Mandy Tannen wrote this little power pop tune about that little contradiction. Also, the guitar line in the verse is a little inspired by the verse guitar part in Van Halen’s ‘Panama.’ RIP Eddie.”
