Interviews
Ahead of the release of his third album Cabin Fever, Tom Aspaul invited us into the surreal, emotional, and often psychedelic journey that inspired it. While rooted in that heady experience, the album still shimmers with direct, glistening summer pop. What began as a Midsommar getaway spiraled into an unfiltered confrontation with grief, identity, and […]
Loverboy sat down with electronic artist and producer Brian Suarez to reflect on everything from his early days in New York’s DIY music scene and scoring an Electroclash hit with “Taboo” to his current songwriting and DJ successes as Allies for Everyone. From live performances featuring surprise stripteases to handmade party flyers and AI mishaps, […]
And so it begins. With a fuck off rave siren no less. That gets only gets louder and louder before being joined by a twisted & tortured vocal and an obnoxious Hard House/Techno beat. Sextile‘s new album, yes, please. is a fucking riot and it’s out now via Sacred Bones. The LA duo comprising Melissa Scaduto […]
Jazz. Grunge. P Funk. Brit Rock. Just some of many different genres to be discovered in Weirdo, the AOTY-contender, dropped today by multi-instrumentalist Emma-Jean Thackray. But our adjective of choice for this album is vocal. Across the eighteen tracks, Thackray utilizes all the different colours of her voice to give you layers on layers of harmonies, […]
M(h)aol’s latest single ‘I Miss My Dog‘ might be a tender ode to a beloved butch lesbian pup named Kim, but it’s also so much more. Much like their new album it’s raw, aching, and laced with that signature M(h)aol bite. With album Something Soft dropping 16th May via Merge Records, the intersectional queer feminist […]
Lawrence Chaney has officially traded in her shortbread for slot machines, swapping the gloomy skies of Glasgow for the glittering chaos of Las Vegas—and they’re not looking back. Nearly two years after sashaying onto the Strip, the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Season 2 is on our screens once more in the second season […]
When Bria Salmena tells Loverboy, ‘I just love singing’, she’s not lying. She’s prolific. From fronting Canadian indie rock band Frigs, to touring in Orville Peck’s live band, releasing her own Cuntry Covers EPs and then finding time for her electronic alias God’s Mom, Bria brings that vocal versatility to every project she’s part of. […]
After six years in a self-confessed ‘musical wilderness’, singer/songwriter/producer Shura is preparing for the release of her third album, I Got Too Sad For My Friends, out 30th May. The swooping first single was ‘Realise‘, with its epic 80s drums and the message of self-comfort ‘with a coffee and a good book’. Next single, ‘Richardson‘, […]
How awkward. It would seem someone has forgotten to tell Australia’s Mallrat that the second album is supposed to be difficult…the sophomore struggle! Instead her new album, Light Hit My Face Like A Straight Right, is like really good and it’s out today. Experimenting further within the realms of electronica, the singer/songwriter/producer plays with UK […]
