The Australian duo Jagwar Ma’s gleeful debut Howlin’ evokes Madchester in its heady swirl of baggy beats, unabashed Beach Boys melodies, and charmingly silly lyrics. It's a backwards looking record about loving the present moment.

The White Stripes were an American rock duo formed in 1997 in Detroit, Michigan. The group consisted of Jack White and Meg White. I think this song is so sweet...gentlemanly. It is, about trying to impress a lover's mother. It's apparent in a lot of WS songs that Jack is very traditional; it shows in this song.

Ninth track off 2018's 'Freedom' Dracula, the song feels like a rolling mushroom trip, punctuated by staccato guitar and bass pluckings, ambiguous lyrics where the word ‘dad’ sounds like ‘dead’ and lead McMahon to eventually sing in tongues. It’s one of the shortest on the record but also one of the sweetest.

MIEN’s seeds were planted as far back as 2004 when The Black Angels vocalist Alex Maas and Elephant Stone sitarist Rishi Dhir shared a bill at SXSW. Enduringly addictive and devoid of arty pretentiousness, ‘MIEN’ is evidently an album made by true connoisseurs of psychedelic music both old and new. Like-minded audiophiles will find plenty to cheer about across these ten tracks.

Psychedelic rock perfectionist, Kevin Parker, never seems to disappoint as he continues the quest of creating sounds by layering them with various effect pedals in his solo project, Tame Impala. The Australian native likes to craft his songs alone and hopes they bring an empowering and rich feeling to listeners through sound. The first song on this EP, “List of People (To Try and Forget About),” displays an upbeat melody that allows Kevin Parker’s soothing voice to smoothly ride overtop it as he sings about trying to forget about a person he was once close to.

"The Mother We Share" is the debut single by Scottish synth-pop band Chvrches, Chvrches are in spirit, if not in sound indier than most indie bands. They recorded this debut album themselves, in Iain Cook’s front room, keeping A&R men at arm’s length until they’d made the record they wanted to make.

The Louder I Call, the Faster It Runs revels in keeping you off balance; it impresses, inspires and occasionally overwhelms, but it never outstays its welcome. A fantastic statement from an endlessly evolving band shouting louder than ever.

If the mesmerizing motorik hum of the War on Drugs' earlier records gave leader Adam Granduciel an outlet to escape his problems, Lost in the Dream is where he pulls a U to survey the emotional wreckage.

The Internet returned last month with "Roll (Burbank Funk)," their first new material since 2015 album Ego Death. The funk-laden original now has an official remix courtesy of Kaytranada.

Nicolas Jaar has never been the type of artist to impose constraints on himself. Across the last decade, he’s made meticulous, collage-like compositions under his own name and through the longform psychedelia of Darkside. Sometimes he ends up with thrilling, dystopian techno-punk. Other times he ends up with a literal aluminum cube filled with music.

Spirited band with a fondness for noise moves from delectably trashy drum-machine punk tunes to Casio experiments that reverberate in slow, strange ways. The French band's debut veers between delectably trashy drum-machine punk to Casio experiments that reverberate in slow, strange ways, hinting at graphic drug use and casual violence.

Bundick’s attempts to distance himself from the hazy, nostalgic atmospherics associated with the genre pushed his second record, Underneath the Pines, into richer territory.
