The Irish alt-pop artist last week delivered a celestial new cosmic folk single in “We Came From Stars,” a minimalist twirl of expansive intimacy where her luminous vocals act as physical expression, drawing us in as the main instrument to convey reflection and rediscovery. “I’ve taken a step back from electronic world-building for now,” the artist born Aoife McCann […]

]]> Wet Leg cause a ruckus with punchy new single ‘catch these fists’ https://vanyaland.com/2025/04/01/wet-leg-cause-a-ruckus-with-punchy-new-single-catch-these-fists/ Tue, 01 Apr 2025 20:26:19 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10041092 Wet Leg doesn’t want your love — they just wanna fight. The whipsmart English band is back with a new single, on April Fool’s Day no less, and it’s a noisy number dubbed “catch these fists” that’s sure to cause a ruckus. The punchy track is the first taste of Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers’ sophomore album moisturizer, set for July 11 release via Domino, and it sets a provocative tone as the band fend off unwanted advances from a belligerent bloke […]

]]> Ruby Rose Fox opens up a new art-pop world with ‘Franklin, Do…’ https://vanyaland.com/2023/06/12/ruby-rose-fox-opens-up-a-new-art-pop-world-with-franklin-do/ Mon, 12 Jun 2023 19:15:32 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10035132 Around these parts, Ruby Rose Fox and her music need no introduction. But the ones who do are folx like Sheila and Franklin, two fictional characters that are part of a larger narrative and world-building across the once-Boston, now Nashville-based singer-songwriter’s forthcoming third album, Carpetbaggers. We get the introduction of the aforementioned pair in “Franklin, Do…”, the cinematic first art-pop single from the album that has a glossy gravitational pull that demands repeated listens. A post-disco, synth-spun twirl across a […]

]]> Queen Kwong goes with the flow on ‘Without You, Whatever’ https://vanyaland.com/2022/06/09/queen-kwong-goes-with-the-flow-without-you-whatever/ Thu, 09 Jun 2022 15:58:38 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10030913 There’s something purely magical about Queen Kwong’s new single “Without You, Whatever,” an enchanting dose of lush dream-pop that sees light of day today (June 9) via its Mimi Supernova-directed video. And there are two pretty interesting anecdotes lurking just under its intoxicating surface: One, it’s possibly the first “pop”-leaning song written by Los Angeles artist and songwriter Carré Kwong Callaway; and two, it was never intended to appear on Queen Kwong’s forthcoming third album, Couples Only, due out July […]

]]> Cate Le Bon finds style through a warped lens on ‘Remembering Me’ https://vanyaland.com/2022/01/12/cate-le-bon-finds-style-through-a-warped-lens-on-remembering-me/ Wed, 12 Jan 2022 20:17:51 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10029014 We’re not sure what has us more enraptured: Cate Le Bon’s hypnotic new single “Remembering Me,” or its colorful art-house video, directed by Giraffe Studios (Juliana and Nicola Giraffe) and outfitted by Monica Adriana Rowlands. It’s all got a Bowie-meets-St. Vincent vibe to it, and the beautifully warped tune will be featured on Le Bon’s forthcoming album Pompeii, which hits February 4 via Mexican Summer. “‘Remembering Me’ is a neurotic diary entry that questions notions of legacy and warped sentimentalism in […]

]]> Home Counties embrace summer by showing off their ‘Dad Bod’ https://vanyaland.com/2020/07/01/home-counties-embrace-summer-by-showing-off-their-dad-bod/ Wed, 01 Jul 2020 10:55:43 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10021696 It was way back in late-ish-March when Home Counties hit us with a gentrification-themed romper called “Redevelopment”, a hyperactive track that recalled our favorite parts of bands like Late of the Pier, Blur, and Futureheads. The whole pandemic thing was just starting to tighten its grip, and it took our minds off to some far away places. Now, as we approach the summer that won’t be, the Bristol quintet have popped out a bouncy new art-rock single in “Dad Bod.” […]
