So many artists, so many songs, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we’d call “indie,” and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. We update a playlist weekly of some of our current favorite tracks. Here’s a daily roundup with a bunch of interesting, newly released songs in one place.

COMMON HOLLY – “DYSON”
Common Holly says her new single “Dyson” was influenced by Jonathan Richman. “I wrote it in about 5 minutes, sitting by the window, waiting for my Dyson,” she says. “I was thinking about Beckett and God and the dust in my house, about places where we wait— Montrealers will know all about the SAAQ, our finest purgatory!”

HOLLY HUMBERSTONE – “TO LOVE SOMEBODY”
Alt-pop artist Holly Humberstone announced her sophomore LP, Cruel World, due out April 10 via Interscope. The lead single is “To Love Somebody,” which she says she wrote “after watching someone close to me go through a brutal heartbreak. It’s better to have loved and lost, even when it sucks, because feeling everything is part of the human experience. Loving hard is a painful thing and there are two sides to love and they exist in the same space to me. They are all real, brutal and vulnerable experiences. This blue and green ball just keeps spinning and you learn to ride things out.”

HARRY STYLES – “APERTURE”
Harry Styles’ new single “Aperture” is here, and after hearing it, it makes a lot of sense why he’s touring with dancey artists like Robyn, Jamie xx, and Fcukers. It’s a subdued, atmospheric, electronic indie pop song, and Harry actually said his new direction was inspired by seeing LCD Soundsystem live. “When you’re kind of watching them be so like immersed in it, I was, I think the inspiration from them came of like, ‘oh, that’s how I want to feel when I’m on stage,’” he said. “And then that kind of led to the kind of music I was making.”
