It’s easy to talk about love when everything is going right. Tarric ’s new single “Lying With You” is about what happens when it all quietly falls apart—and you stay anyway. Built on glimmering synth textures and hollowed-out percussion, the track is emotionally raw but musically composed, like a breakup conversation in a perfectly curated gallery space. Tarric doesn’t scream through the pain—he whispers it with precision. “You make me say things I would not do / Cause I’ve been lying with you,” he sings, peeling back the layers of emotional self-distortion that creep into relationships like mold under...

The great success of Lankum, and their producer John “Spud” Murphy’s ubiquity across the sonically radicalised new Irish trad scene, can make it seem as if Ye Vagabonds, ØXN, John Francis Flynn and co comprise an essentially single entity, passing through Murphy’s studios for ocean-deep overdubs as centuries of lyrical heritage are challenged and channelled through doomy, bestial drones.

From The Rolling Stones to Robert Palmer, love as a medical emergency is a perennial theme for songwriters. Well, sound the alarm and send out the paramedics once again, because Wet Leg are in love. It’s all over their second album, but explicitly ringing out as a klaxon call on current single “CPR”. “Hello 999, what’s your emergency?” asks Rhian Teasdale with call handler calm before making her orgasmic self-diagnosis: “I…I…I…I…I…I’m in love.” And when Teasdale sings she’s in love, you’d best believe she’s in love, however you want to spell it.

On the last one left, he’s written “River Guard”...
