♫ He's making his end-of-year lists. He’s checking them twice. He’s gonna find out who’s naughty or nice. ♫ As usual, I'm planning on rounding up my favourite tracks, but we’ll get the ‘naughty list’ out of the way first. Here are my picks for the worst songs of 2021. Which songs did I miss?
I’ve been very busy recently, so sorry again for missing last week's roundup. Below are my favourite finds from the last two weeks. Artists featured include Earl Sweatshirt, Boris, Disorientations, Shego, Maxwell Varey, Roni Bar Hadas and Chew Magna.
Post-punk provocateurs Idles get less political and more personal on their fourth album.
There weren’t too many huge tracks released this week, which is great because I could focus my attention on catching up with all the submissions in my inbox. Artists featured this week include Ovlov, Basement Revolver, Flynt, Kemetstry, Onipa and Code Orange.
NO WORST TRACKS THIS WEEK. There were far too many good tracks to choose from that I didn't have any space for bad tracks. Here are some of my favourites from the last week.
Despite the uninspired name (he blatantly took it from a rapper name generator), Lil Nas X has fast become one of the most exciting and unique artists in modern mainstream hip hop. But is it all just gimmicks?
Idles deliver a new vicious track, Hiatus Kaiyote embrace Halloween, Big Sean covers himself in bees for his latest banger, plus new killer tracks from underground artists Darkroom Data and Oog Bogo.
