Get in. Let\u2019s talk about it. \u201cTrinidad\u201d by Geese. This is that Freakazoid, new American, post-Roots music. You might know the Geese frontman Cameron Winter, or as I call him, Neil Younger. \u201cNaked\u201d by 41, featuring A Boogie Wit da Hoodie. A dour, pop drill, R&amp;B love song about that horrible feeling of emptiness after you leave someone. \u201cBadman Gangsta\u201d by Asake &amp; Tiakola. Incredibly soothing and calming, tough talk anthem from Nigerian star Asake, who made my number one album of 2023 and Tiakola, an excellent French singer and rapper. \u201cMy Car Is Singing Like a Locust\u201d by They Are Gutting a Body of Water. This is a really, really good Philadelphia band, pumped up shoegaze with all these buried chants in it. \u201cSplitsville\u201d by Zach Top. We are in the early stages of what feels like a big \u201890s revival in mainstream country. Zach Top is at the forefront of that. \u201cSplitsville\u201d feels like a lonely anthem from 1992 about that space that you share with everybody around you who\u2019s just going through heartbreak.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<header class=\"css-p8f291\">\n<div class=\"css-1gn3fip\">\n<div class=\"css-vabf4\">\n<div class=\"css-1gp9s7r\"><nyt-betamax class=\"css-wkvudm\"><template shadowrootmode=\"open\" slotassignment=\"named\"><link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/static01.nyt.com\/video-static\/betamax\/player-0.1.77-BFNcGY1P.css\" crossorigin=\"\"\/><\/template><nyt-betamax-cover><template shadowrootmode=\"open\" slotassignment=\"named\"><link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/static01.nyt.com\/video-static\/betamax\/cover-0.1.77-eTrf0IGY.css\" crossorigin=\"\"\/><\/template><nyt-betamax-poster><template shadowrootmode=\"open\" slotassignment=\"named\"><link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/static01.nyt.com\/video-static\/betamax\/poster-0.1.77-ZXgRxfP_.css\" crossorigin=\"\"\/><\/template><\/nyt-betamax-poster><\/nyt-betamax-cover><nyt-betamax-overlay-controls><template shadowrootmode=\"open\" slotassignment=\"named\"><link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/static01.nyt.com\/video-static\/betamax\/overlay-controls-0.1.77-jUswb0zt.css\" crossorigin=\"\"\/><link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/static01.nyt.com\/video-static\/betamax\/scrubber-0.1.77-CkKd7enq.css\" crossorigin=\"\"\/><\/template><\/nyt-betamax-overlay-controls><nyt-betamax-ads><template shadowrootmode=\"open\" slotassignment=\"named\"><link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/static01.nyt.com\/video-static\/betamax\/ads-0.1.77-Cs2XynqP.css\" crossorigin=\"\"\/><\/template><\/nyt-betamax-ads><\/nyt-betamax><\/div>\n<div class=\"css-1djxavg\"><span class=\"css-hple31\">The music critic Jon Caramanica recommends some recent tracks from his driver\u2019s seat, in a lightning-round edition of his weekly song reviews.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>By Jon Caramanica, Joe Coscarelli and Arjun Srivatsa<\/p>\n<p>October 21, 2025<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.nytimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>new video loaded: 5 Songs Our Critic Loves Right Now transcript Back transcript 5 Songs Our Critic Loves Right Now The music critic Jon Caramanica recommends some recent tracks from his driver\u2019s seat, in a lightning-round edition of his weekly song reviews.
