L.A.-based Lucy Arnell has shared the video for her song “Shadow’s Coming Over to Watch a DVD,” which will be part of a split cassette release with post-punk-pop provocateur Holiday Sidewinder. The film—co-directed and shot by Arnell’s good friend Tess Wachter—is an oddity specific to Arnell’s own vision. A grunge-rock rambler soundtracks the film, which […]

In anticipation of their newest album being slated for release next month, Temples have shared yet another single from the record this time in the form of the sublimely sizzling “You’re Either On Something.” Offered in the band’s signature blend of neo-psychedelia rock, lead singer James Bagshaw’s piercing croons are as ethereal as ever as […]
