Any time you hear Rico Nasty trill the word “Kennyyyyyyy” on a song’s intro, you know you’re about to hear some shit. Rico and producer Kenneth Blume have both made a whole lot of music with a whole lot of people, but one might argue that the two of them made their best music together,…

Brigitte Naggar returned this year with Anything glass, her first Common Holly album since 2019. Today the self-professed “sincere-core” artist has delivered a stripped-down cover of “Amour, Amour,” a Michel Legrand song from the 1970 film Peau d’Âne. This song has been in my head since I first encountered it during a film screening in…

It’s not easy bein’ Brat green. Early this year, as Brat Summer was seemingly simmering down at last, Charli XCX announced she was working on a movie for A24 called The Moment, starring herself and based on her own idea.

A couple of years ago, Tomb Mold guitarist Derrick Vella’s ambitiously progged-out side project Dream Unending released Starpath, a split LP with the gothy, over-the-top Miami black metal band Worm. Before that record, I must confess that I was unfamiliar with Worm’s game. But I liked what I saw in them — dramatic keyboards, splintered…
