14 New Songs Out Today

So many artists, so many songs, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we’d call “indie,” and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. We update a playlist weekly of some of our current favorite tracks. Here’s a daily roundup with a bunch of interesting, newly released songs in one place.

ADRIAN SHERWOOD – “THE COLLAPSE OF EVERYTHING”

Producer, On-U Sound founder and dub maestro Adrian Sherwood will release The Collapse Of Everything, his first solo album in 13 years, on August 22 via On-U Sound. He says: ““Recently I lost two great friends, Mark Stewart & Keith LeBlanc, and started working with the idea of doing another solo record, because it’s been a long time since Survival & Resistance. Mark had written a song, and part of a lyric was hidden in the song about ‘The Collapse Of Everything’. It seemed a very appropriate title, both summing up my feelings about losing Mark and Keith, and on another level, what’s going on in the world now both politically and environmentally.” Check out the title track.

GANSER – “DISCOUNT DIAMONDS”

Chicago’s Ganser will release new album Animal Hospital on August 29 via Felte and they’ve just shared another single from it. “Discount Diamonds” has an inviting post-punk/disco groove. “There’s always someone up top saying what the kids are doing wrong, always a voice telling you the party’s over,” says the band’s Alicia Gaines. “I liked the idea of making a dance track that’s constantly questioning whether dancing’s still allowed. It’s got that suspicious energy, like too much coffee and not enough sleep.”
