Florence + The Machine – ‘Everybody Scream’
Marking the band’s first release in over two years, the title track from Florence + The Machine’s long-awaited sixth album has been unveiled. Complete with Viking-style chanting, primal wails, and choral harmonies, the track is as quintessentially Florence as it gets. Lyrically, the song explores the crushing pressure Florence Welch faces to live up to audience expectations both on and off stage – intertwined, of course, with characteristic imagery of witchcraft and nature.
Luvcat – ‘Blushing’
‘Blushing’ is the latest single to be teased from Luvcat’s upcoming debut album ‘Vicious Delicious’. Luvcat, real name Sophie Morgan Howarth, has quickly garnered a loyal following and it’s easy to see why. Her luscious, soulful vocals create an idyllic, romantic landscape, backed by jangly guitar. Playful wordplay embedded in the lyrics makes for a relatable, down-to-earth vibe.
Lois – ‘April Showers’
Lois has a knack for making music that feels simultaneously raw and polished. Released on her brand new EP ‘SEVEN’, ‘April Showers’ is a melodic, acoustic-led love song with a melancholic undertone. Lois perfectly encapsulates the brooding feeling that comes from a lack of closure, with a soft opening leading into a theatrical crescendo. Her light, soft vocals are reminiscent of beabadoobee.
Anna von Hausswolff ft. Iggy Pop – ‘The Whole Woman’
Clashing genres and generations come together in Swedish composer Anna von Hausswolff’s collaboration with godfather of punk Iggy Pop. The two artists’ vastly differing vocals meet in harmony over distorted violins. Usually better known for his outrageous on-stage antics, Pop proves himself a capable baritone. Von Hausswolff’s skill for layering together components that shouldn’t work, but do, has never been more apparent.
Flo Milli ft. coop – ‘Perfect Person’
This fresh collaboration between rappers Flo Milli and coop is built around an interpolation of Hoobastank’s pop-rock classic ‘The Reason.’ Like many of Milli’s tracks, ‘Perfect Person’ is just two minutes in length, but packs in an elaborate narrative without feeling rushed, exploring regrets, jealousy, and self-worth. Coop complements the track with her unique hip-hop inflections, while Milli’s talents shine in both rap and R&B-style vocals. Together, they transform a well-known melodic hook into something club‑ready, yet emotionally resonant.
