I feel kind of like a fool that I didn’t realize Declan McKenna’s new album came out this past weekend! Based off two strong singles, I was really excited to hear the rest of What Happened to the Beach?! And to my delight, it was just as good as I’d hoped!

New Music – Singles Edition!
I’ll admit that I haven’t been keeping my ears open for much new music recently, but to be fair, I think it’s also been slow going for the last several months. I don’t know that 2024 will be as lucrative as 2023 in terms of new albums, but I’m hopeful. Anyway, here are a few new tracks that caught my eye recently.

I suppose it has been almost exactly two whole years since the release of Bad Suns’ last full length record, Apocalypse Whenever, but to me it’s felt like no time at all!

I wasn’t expecting there to be this much new music so soon! I know Blink 182 fans all around the world were probably screaming with anticipation when they found out there was not one, but two new singles. It was a good mix this time around.

Well, it’s been two weeks now since 30 Seconds to Mars’ new album dropped since 2018, but because of my lackluster response to most of the singles dropped, I really wasn’t looking forward to this new full-length, It’s the End of the World but It’s a Beautiful Day.

You see, I put Foxy Shazam up there because that’s really who I was most amped to see. Middle school and high school me only ever knew “Graduation Day” from Head Automatica, so they weren’t the main draw for me. With that being said, they both put on an excellent show!
