As the days keep getting longer and we edge ever-closer to the summer solstice, it’s paramount to remember that…ah, screw it. There’s a bunch of great new music this week and we made a playlist out of it. That’s the tradition, after all. This week, we’ve got everything from frothy synth-pop (Charlie XCX) to ’90s-fetishizing rappers (Joey Bada$$) to hardcore (Fucked Up) to punk legends (Bob Mould, ladies and gentlemen!). Schizophrenic? Maybe a bit. But that’s music for you!

As usual, we’ve added the tracks to our ongoing Spotify playlist of great new music, and created a standalone YouTube playlist for this week. Keep the recommendations coming.


The tracks:

Jenny Lewis, “Just One Of The Guys”

Hamilton Leithauser, “I Retired”

Lana Del Rey, “Ultraviolence”

Sia, “Chandelier”

Charlie XCX, “Boom Clap”

Shamir, “If It Wasn’t True”

Statik Selektah f/ Joey Bada$$ & Freddie Gibbs, “Carry On”

Drake, “0-100″

Fucked Up, “Sun Glass”

Bob Mould, “Mr. Grey”
