Last fall, alt-pop singer d4vd made lots of headlines when a dead body later identified as 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found in his Tesla. It wasn’t until last month that he was arrested and charged with murder, but at the time the story took the internet by storm as users were connecting the dots between 20-year-old David Anthony Burke and Hernandez. Now, NBC reports that a Google software engineer has been charged with insider trading after using confidential company information to make over $1.2 million on Polymarket, wagering that d4vd would be Google’s most-searched person of 2025.

Today the Swede born Kristian Matsson resumes that pursuit with the release of “Colors,” his first new song in three years. This song is really working for me. “I need…

Jesus Is The Path To Heaven is a musical trio led by singer-songwriter Jordan Hoban alongside bandmates Thommy Underhill and Zach Jordan. A band name like that one leads me to expect music loaded with spiritual and emotional tension, and on their new single out today, the band delivers on the implied promise. I don’t…

For the past two years, Lauren Morgan, formerly of the TikTok-viral indie band SALES, has been releasing excellent indie-pop under the name Lorg. Maybe you caught “Brandy” or the Nightlands collab “Crossroads,” and maybe your entrypoint is “Marathonia.” Out today, the song flows with an irresistible momentum, matching languid chillwavey guitar strums with a lo-fi…

Lindsay Minton and Mercy Harper are members of the Houston emo band Football, etc., and they’re also in Hew, a relatively new band that’s set to release their debut album Your Version this summer.

This summer the proud nation known as the United States Of America will officially celebrate its 250th birthday. Donald Trump is doing his very best to turn this into a celebration of his own magnificence, and the proceedings will include a UFC event on the White House lawn and a grand prix race in Washington, DC, a city not exactly built for automotive speed. The Freedom 250 people have also put together the Great American State Fair, a series of concerts on the National Mall that will attempt to make America 1990 again.

Clutter are a young indie band from Stockholm. All four members are about 21 years old, and they released their debut EP Loves You last year. In January, the band landed on our radar with the fun single “C.L.U.T.T.E.R.” Today, they follow that song with a bleary post-hardcore headrush called “GirlVsHeart.” It’s fast and sloppy,…
