Annie // Pop Art

"The way I am, I’m always living with a melody in my mind -- no matter if it’s a great melody or a shit melody. I always have this melody in my head."

Incapable of releasing an album without life throwing up a minor Greek tragedy along the way, Annie is finally ready to drop Don’t Stop, her masterpiece of a second album.

The Sound of Arrows // Endless Nostalgia

“Everyone has always said we’re like the Pet Shop Boys, but they only say so because we look gay and are two guys making synthpop.”

They’re contestable, curious, bombastic, brilliant and plenty more—but they’re certainly not ironic.

Wild Beasts // The Genital Band with the High Voice

The best and weirdest guitar pop band to appear in the last five years: on trying to parse the enigma of Wild Beasts’ sound.

Jahdan Blakkamoore // Writes

“I don’t limit my expression for anyone—if I feel like exploring, I will explore.”

Music’s newest Genre-bender, straight outta WillyB, explains his own world.
