Little Dragon Share Another New Single, “Let Go,” Off New Album
Little Dragon have already shared two singles off Nabuma Rubberband, the follow-up to 2011’s: Ritual Union — “Klapp Klapp” and “Paris.” They’ve now shared a third track in the lead-up to the album with “Let Go.” Though conveniently close to sharing its name with a recent smash hit song, there aren’t many similarities beside urging one to […]
Danny Boyle and Leonardo DiCaprio Circling Steve Jobs Biopic
After negotiations with David Fincher fell through last week, Sony Pictures is moving quickly to find a director for their Steve Jobs movie and THR reports the studio has already begun speaking with Danny Boyle about taking over the gig.

Listen: Jamie xx – “Girl”
James Blake‘s monthly BBC Radio 1 residency has always been fodder for fun music things – new music premieres, slick remixes, that charming fake Burial interview. Last month, Blake had fun with listeners again when he debuted a chill new track called “Bloke” from a gent dubbed “Simon Tallywhacker,” which didn’t sound fishy at all from the very moment […]

There’s a certain esteem held towards those who’ve helmed Dance Gavin Dance – it’s a coveted slot that’s rotated between a trio of powerful vocalists who demand your attention. Jonny Craig, Kurt Travis, and Tilian Pearson all offered unique perspective to the tenured and troubled post-hardcore act, differentiating themselves further with their individual pursuits. It’s […]
UTG PREMIERE: Tilian – “Future Friends”
You might associate Tilian Pearson with any number of bands from the last few years, but the singer’s solo project may have the most potential. With 2013’s Material Me, the vocalist leapt headfirst into electronic-infused pop, exploring all sorts of soundscapes far outside his previous material but immediately natural to his range. While Dance Gavin […]
WATCH: The Menzingers – “I Don’t Wanna Be An Asshole Anymore”
What happens when a masked, chainsaw-slinging murderer sees the error of his ways and tries to win over the girl of his dreams? You’ll find the answer to that question in the new music video for “I Don’t Wanna Be An Asshole Anymore,” the latest single from Pennsylvania punk act The Menzingers. The clip is […]
The Dan Auerbach Mix Of Lana Del Rey’s “West Coast” May Be Better Than The Original
If you’re anything like me then you have only recently managed to catch the breath that was stolen from you during the lush and entrancing debut of Lana Del Rey‘s new single (“West Coast“) last week. It had all the hazy vibes of pseudo-reality you have come to expect from the soulful vocalist, with a […]
Machine Gun Kelly Celebrates His Birthday, Shares New Track
Cleveland native Machine Gun Kelly has spent the better part of the last year on the road, but somewhere between crossing state lines and hopping flights he has found time to lay the groundwork for what will eventually lead to his sophomore album. He’s kept quiet as to when fans can expect new tracks, but […]
Help Preserve Portugal. The Man’s “Endangered Song”
Many bands are vocal advocates of environmental sustainability and the preservation of endangered species, but very few have addressed the issues by literally putting their music at risk of extinction. That is exactly what Portugal. The Man have done with “Endangered Song.” The Alaskan rock band’s new seven-inch is designed to degrade after a certain […]
