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.
AVALON EMERSON & THE CHARM – “EDEN”
Avalon Emerson has shared her first new music from her & the Charm pop-oriented project since her self-titled 2023 album under the moniker, the bubbly “Eden.” “‘Eden’ is the voyage along the endless river carved between mountains of joy and loss, of experience and exhaustion,” she says. “We glide over a teeming riverbed of relationships and love, revealing the path itself is the point. ‘Eden’ came from the first studio session I had with Bullion after the last ‘& the Charm’ live tour in late 2023. That day in London made me realize that making this kind of music is not just a detour from DJing and dance music, but the entrance to a deep cave, full of passages to wander.”

WENDY EISENBERG – “WILL YOU DARE”
Wendy Eisenberg says her new single is “a simple little song about true love and the passage of time. ‘Will you dare”’is the real question – do you dive into the impossibility of true love, be shameless, even though if you’re doing it right it’ll rip you to shreds?”

PURE BATHING CULTURE – “I SAID WHAT I SAID (THE SOFTIES COVER)”
The fourth installment of Father/Daughters’ 15th anniversary cover series is Pure Bathing Culture’s rendition of The Softies’ “I Said What I Said.” “It feels like a missive on the complexities of relationships and the need for truth but also how hard it is to get to that point sometimes,” they say. “While we were making this we were listening to the Elis Regina & Antonio Carlos Jobim record Elis & Tom a lot as well as 16 Lovers Lane by The go Betweens so it’s possible some of those textures were influencing us here.”
