Throughout the week, we Best New Songs Playlist We’ll be showcasing the hottest new releases, including leading-up album singles and newly-announced deep cuts, and every Monday we’ll round up the best new songs released over the past week in our Best New Music segment (coverage period begins Monday and ends Sunday night).
This week’s list includes Black Midi frontman Geordie Griep’s jazzy, plaintively salacious debut solo single “Holy, Holy,” Chat Pyle’s bleak and gloomy new single “Masc” and the flimsy, alluring “Lucky Number,” taken from New York band Closeby’s new album. Make your own hammerYaeji’s addictive club track “Boo Boo,” Christian Lee Hutson’s lovely new song “Beauty School” featuring Katie Kirby, and Laura Marling’s delicate new single “No One’s Gonna Love You Like I Can” from her upcoming LP. Repeating patterns; Caroline Says’ tender and poignant new track “Faded and Golden,” Tanukichan and Wisp’s enchanting collaboration “It Gets Easier” and the devastatingly intimate new track “Martingale” from C-Lows.
