There\u2019s so much music coming out all the time that it\u2019s hard to keep track. On those days when the influx of new tracks is particularly overwhelmin<\/em>g, we sift through the noise to bring you a curated list of the most interesting new releases (the best of which will be added to our\u00a0Best New Songs playlist<\/a>). Below, check out our track roundup for September 4, 2025.<\/em><\/p>\n Sword II \u2014 the Atlanta trio Mari Gonz\u00e1lez, Certain Zuko, and Travis Arnold \u2014 have announced a new album, Electric Hour<\/em>, arriving November 14 via section1. It\u2019s led by the nightmarish, electrifying new single \u2018Even If It\u2019s Just A Dream\u2019. \u201cThe title was inspired by the idea that we are in the era of surveillance technology, but also we imagined \u2018electric hour\u2019 as something powerful, a time for creativity, potency and revolution \u2013 \u2018the time is now\u2019 type situation,\u201d the group said of the LP. \u201cWe imagined the \u2018hour\u2019 as the time a band gets to be on stage \u2013 one hour to make your point to the audience, to make sense of the situation facing humanity. One hour to bring into the physical world the music that resonates with people facing repression, increasing alienation, and violence. Basically, one shot to make the revolution. It\u2019s very daunting because you only get one life, one hour. But our limitation is what shows us what is important, what is worthy of our time in this life.\u201d<\/p>\nSword II \u2013 \u2018Even If It\u2019s Just A Dream\u2019<\/h3>\n
