In 2024, I included November Girl’s awesome track “Yesterday” on my impeccable list of my favorite songs from that year. That came from her incredible Heart Prayer EP, and now the severely underrated shoegaze artist is back with a compelling, ’90s-indebted anthem called “Earthly Form.”

Dublin noisemakers Gilla Band haven’t been making a lot of noise lately. The band’s most recent album Most Normal came out four years ago. Since then, Gilla Band’s members have been pursuing other things, like guitarist Alan Duggan Borges’ experimental electronic project the Null Club. Back in May, Gilla Band finally returned with the explosive, twisty single “Giraffe.” That’s the kind of song that you release when you’re getting ready to announce an album, and that album has now been announced.

We last checked in on Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese last Halloween, shortly after he sparked some bad-faith outrage by wearing a Joy Division T-shirt. Now he’s back in the news thanks to a more genuinely scandalous intersection with the music world.

Fiona Apple is coming back into the fold. Her music is being used to soundtrack the new miniseries Lucky, starring Anya Taylor-Joy and based on the 2021 novel by Marissa Stapley. It premieres on Apple TV+ on July 15. It’s unclear if the music is something new from Fiona, but here’s hoping! Either way, it’s selling me a bit on this show that I’ve never heard of before today.

Taylor Swift once penned “It’s a love story, baby just say ‘Yes.'” And now, her art has become reality. The massive pop star got married on July 3 to NFL player Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden. Unsurprisingly, it seems like every celebrity and their grandmother and their dog was there. The New York Times published over 30 articles about the event. While details have been mostly under wraps, a new report reveals that Swift’s pal Paul McCartney performed “I Want To Hold Your Hand.”
