\n\tMUNA<\/a>\u2018s new album Dancing on the Wall<\/em> tops this week\u2019s best new music poll<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tListeners voted in a poll published Friday (May 8) on Billboard<\/em><\/a>, choosing the LA indie-pop trio\u2019s new record as their favorite music release of the week.<\/p>\n

\n\tDancing on the Wall<\/em> rose to the top in a week that also featured Charli xcx<\/a>\u2018s hotly anticipated genre-pivot single \u201cRock Music,\u201d new full-lengths from J Balvin and Ryan Castro, Lykke Li, Little Simz and The Chainsmokers, plus new singles from The Last Dinner Party, PJ Morton, Ashley McBryde and more.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe win marks a significant moment for MUNA, the trio of Katie Gavin, Naomi McPherson and Josette Maskin, who return with their third studio album on Saddest Factory Records \u2014 their first release since their breakout 2022 self-titled record. That album broke through to mainstream audiences on the strength of the Phoebe Bridgers collaboration \u201cSilk Chiffon\u201d and earned widespread critical acclaim. Dancing on the Wall<\/em> finds the band continuing to evolve their signature brand of euphoric, emotionally direct indie pop, with the title track arriving as one of the year\u2019s most immediate and danceable releases so far.<\/p>\n

\n\tMeanwhile, the second-place finisher Charli xcx\u2019s \u201cRock Music\u201d marked a deliberate departure from the Brat<\/em>-era sound that defined her 2024 commercial breakthrough. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIf I\u2019d made another album that felt more dance-leaning, it would have felt really hard, really sad,\u201d she told\u00a0British Vogue\u00a0<\/em><\/a><\/em>in April. ahead of the single\u2019s release. \u201cWhat\u2019s interesting for me is to bend the possibilities of what my perspective on that could be.\u201d The single arrives ahead of a still-unannounced new album.<\/p>\n
