U2<\/strong> seem to be in their EP era, as they\u2019ve dropped their second surprise one of 2026. <\/p>\nI don\u2019t think Weezer<\/strong> could have predicted their 2014 song \u201cGo Away\u201d going viral in 2026, but it\u2019s once again put the 90\u2019s mainstays in the spotlight, and gave them the perfect boost as they spent last week announcing their tour with a pop-up show and trivia night, and this week shared the first new single from their next album. This band will never \u201cgo away\u201d, and I\u2019m fine with that. Another band that has shown incredible staying power is Shinedown<\/strong>, who have their latest single out today from their anticipated new album. New Jersey\u2019s new favorite song Bleachers<\/strong> pays tribute to \u201cvans\u201d, while Sparta<\/strong>\u2018s new single hits so hard, it\u2019s bound to make a \u2018crater\u2019. <\/p>\nJack White<\/strong> gives us a double-dose of new songs this week ahead of his SNL appearance, and two major composers, Hans Zimmer<\/strong> & A.R. Rahman<\/strong>, have teamed up for a piece from an epic new Bollywood film. There\u2019s an electric new soul jam from Brother Wallace<\/strong>, and Low Cut Connie<\/strong>\u2018s newest track embodies the spirit of classic rock. Another alternative band on the rise, In Color,<\/strong> have shared another new track destined to help them gain new fans, while classic punk band Dillinger Four<\/strong> are back with their first new song in almost two decades. A classic emo band, Time Spent Driving<\/strong>, have released a previously unfinished track for the first time, and one of the most classic alternative artists, Peter Gabriel<\/strong>, has another new track out this week.<\/p>\nYou also might recognize from past NMFs Atta Boy<\/strong>, mehro, Diva Smith<\/strong>, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers<\/strong>, Basement,<\/strong> Ray Bull<\/strong>, Super Cassette<\/strong>, She\u2019s Green<\/strong>, Sincere Engineer<\/strong>, Resilia, Nathan Evans Fox,<\/strong> Super Sometimes<\/strong>, Dirt Road Souls, Arrows of Athena<\/strong>, 37 Houses, India Ramey, Fai Laci,<\/strong> The Zangwills, The Young Martyrs, Dermot Kennedy, Good Kid, Temper Trap, Kasabian, Ecca Vandal, Grade 2, lovelytheband, Codefendants <\/strong>and Vincent Lima<\/strong>. <\/p>\nAnd making their first appearances this week are talented artists like Phillip Phillips<\/strong>, Clover Stieve<\/strong>, SeeTrees<\/strong>, Pickle Juice,<\/strong> The Dambuilders<\/strong>, Victory Kid<\/strong>, Elizabeth & the Catapult<\/strong>, Joan as Police Woman<\/strong>, MASKS, Kid Sistr<\/strong>, Mad Tab, Post Sex Nachos, FEA<\/strong>, Aly Navarro<\/strong>, \u00d8UTLINE<\/strong>, FILM<\/strong>, Paul Solger<\/strong>, Weird Nightmare<\/strong>, Henry Morris<\/strong>, Dylan Espeseth, Russell Jamie Johnson<\/strong> and Surf Trash.<\/strong> <\/p>\nStart your weekend off right with a stream of our New Music Friday Playlist<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source theindyreview.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I hope you avoided getting fooled this last week.
