21 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.

COURTNEY MARIE ANDREWS – “KEEPER”

Courtney Marie Andrews announced a new album, Valentine, due out January 16 via Thirty Tigers, and gave us a preview with “Keeper.” “One night over dinner I asked my friend Kate if I was a keeper,” she says. “This question prompted a heartbreaking conversation followed by writing an entire song over a bowl of pasta. Our ultimate landing was that everyone is a keeper if they’re truly in love.”

PATTERSON HOOD – “SCOTT’S SISTER”

Ahead of his shows with Craig Finn, Drive-By Truckers’ Patterson Hood has shared a new single. “‘Scott’s Sister’ was the first song I wrote for what became my Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams album,” he says. “My mom and her brother have had an often contentious relationship through the years. I consider it a sweet song, actually one of the sweetest I’ve ever written. I recorded the basic track for it by myself at The Panthera in Portland, Oregon. We later added Nate Query (The Decemberists) on upright bass, which he knocked out of the park in a single take. Then the wonderful Kyleen King added viola, violin and backing vocals. It’s one of my favorite tracks from the sessions that produced the album. I’m thrilled to have it finally see the light of day.”

JASMINE.4.T – “FIND UR PPL” FT. JACOB ALON

The latest single from All Things Go’s 10 Years compilation, which benefits The Ally Coalition, is jasmine.4.t’s “Find Ur Ppl,” which features Jacob Alon. “Find Ur Ppl is a song I wrote a few years ago, early in my transition,” jasmine says. “This was when I first moved to Manchester and met my community, including my best friend Yulia Trot aka YBT, who put me up on her sofa and supported me in presenting as a woman for the first time. Yulia is sadly currently being held in prison without trial as a political prisoner. She is one of the Filton 24, who are alleged to have broken into an Israeli weapons factory in the UK and destroyed £1 million worth of weapons. We recorded Find Ur Ppl originally for You Are The Morning (YBT Deluxe), an extended version of my debut record which is dedicated to Yulia. It means the world to me to release this new version of the song which features my friend (and recent Mercury Prize nominee!) Jacob Alon, who is a member of the queer community and very much one of the people I was hoping to find when I wrote this song. Their voice and their writing is so beautiful and I have been lucky enough to catch them live several times this year. Their voice brings so much to this song, and collaborating with them was really a dream come true.”

An awakening. An unravelling.”

DEPECHE MODE – “IN THE END”

Depeche Mode‘s upcoming live album, Memento Mori: Mexico City, includes four previously unreleased songs from the Memento Mori sessions as bonus tracks. A rumination of mortality, “In the End” is a pretty terrific Depeche Mode song, all midtempo mood as they sing “We’re weightless / Floating endlessly / We’ll be dust again / In the end” over layers and layers of very cool-sounding synths. How did this not make the album?
