Future Islands – From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth
Twenty years deep and still hitting like a late-night epiphany, Future Islands return with From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth — a 20-track dive into rarities, alternate takes, and fan-loved deep cuts. Less a greatest hits, more a greatest feels, this one stitches together the band’s emotional DNA with two new tracks already in the wild. Arriving May 22, it’s not here to look back politely — it’s here to pull you right back in.
SEB – Backpack
SEB drops Backpack, a 12-track reset that trades polish for momentum. New rules, new creative playground — and a tight-knit crew shaping the sound from the inside out. Consider this the first brick in a much bigger build.
Ratboys – Singin’ to an Empty Chair
Ratboys return with Singin’ to an Empty Chair, their most emotionally incisive and musically expansive album yet — twangy, effervescent, and brimming with clarity.
Retro Kid – Think I Know
A warm, 90s-leaning hip-hop/soul groove with wobbling synths, flute flourishes and quiet confidence. Think I Know sees Retro Kid delivering nostalgia with precision and restraint.
Arlo Parks – Ambiguous Desire
Arlo Parks returns with two striking new tracks, “Heaven” and “2SIDED,” pairing gentle introspection with emotional bite. A delicate yet revealing double release that showcases her gift for turning inner conflict into beautifully understated soul-pop.
Kamal. – How The Fuck Does Everybody Else Manage?
Kamal taps into the quiet chaos of modern coping on “How The Fuck Does Everybody Else Manage?” — a stripped-back, brutally honest track that turns late-night doubt into something strangely comforting.
FAUZIA – The Way
FAUZIA returns with a subtle, shape-shifting double single on Local Action — her first solo release in four years, blending downtempo pop, compositional finesse and quiet emotional weight.
Introducing : supermodel*
There’s a special kind of confidence in not trying to be cool, and Beanie — the 24-year-old brain behind supermodel* — has turned that philosophy into a surprisingly addictive debut statement. Inspired by early Talking Heads doing absolutely nothing until it somehow became iconic, supermodel* operates in a blissful state of anti-intent. No grand lore, no mood boards, no “this record explores…” press-release nonsense. Just instinct, taste, and a healthy disregard for expectations.
Hutch – Never Like The First Time
A raw, intimate debut from UK singer-songwriter Hutch. Never Like The First Time captures addiction, surrender, and rebirth with jazz-tinged restraint and emotional honesty. A track that lets the dark and shiny moments coexist, proving vulnerability is where real connection — and survival — begin.
Armand Hammer & The Alchemist – Mercy
Armand Hammer & The Alchemist’s Mercy drags you through beauty, ruin, and razor-edged poetry. A world of cracked beats, whispered warnings, and brilliant guests, it’s their most magnetic chaos yet — unsettling, addictive, and impossible to shake.
