So many artists, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we'd call "indie," and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. In these concertless times, that includes daily livestreams and live concert videos we love. We publish a monthly playlist of some of our favorite tracks. Here's a daily roundup with a bunch of interesting, newly released songs in one place.

ILSA – "SHIBBOLETH"

DC sludge greats Ilsa have unleashed another rager off their upcoming album Preyer (due 11/20 via Relapse), and this finds them speeding up and going into full-on punk territory. The band tell Decibel that the song is an "explicit denunciation of the true forces of evil at work to undermine civil rights, labor and reproductive justice all around the world!"

PA SALIEU – "BLOCK BOY"

Coventry, UK-born, Gambia-based rapper Pa Salieu will release his debut project Send Them To Coventry on November 13 via Atlantic/Warner UK. Along with the announcement comes this new single, which is another great example of Salieu's ability to blur genres, with hints of UK rap, Afrobeats, dancehall, and more.

SHAME – "BIL"

Having recently returned with new single "Alphabet," UK group Shame share another new one, "BiL," in the form of this live performance shot recently at an empty Brixton Electric in London. There may not be an audience but the band are still bouncing off the walls with this song that adds some electronics to their sound.

STEVEN WILSON (PORCUPINE TREE) – "KING GHOST"

Just in time for Halloween, Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree/No-man) shares this spooky animated video for "King Ghost" which is off his upcoming album The Future Bites. "'King Ghost' is one of my favorite tracks from the album and I think one of the most beautiful songs I've ever come up with, powerful in its apparent simplicity," says Wilson. "Apart from the percussion overdubs (played by Jason Cooper from The Cure, and Michael Spearman from Everything Everything) the music is entirely electronic, mostly using analogue keyboards to create luminous and organic patterns and tones. Much like the song, the video Jess has created focuses more on rich colors and expressing thoughts and feelings though more abstract images, something that takes our collaboration into new territory. It's stunning and I'm incredibly proud of the combination of the song and the video."

YOUR OLD DROOG – "UKRAINE"

"My last project was about unapologetically claiming my heritage as a Jew," said Your Old Droog, referring to 2019's Jewelry. "This song is about embracing my Ukrainian and Eastern European roots." As you'd expect from Droog, it's hard-hitting, throwback-yet-refreshing New York rap.

JORGE ELBRECHT – "PERISH" FT GENEVA JACUZZI

"Somewhere in time…" the opening titles read for Jorge Elbrecht's new video and that somewhere in time seems to be 1981, a dystopian sci-fi fantasy that owes equal parts to Zardoz and The Apple. The song, which features Geneva Jacuzzi, is a jam.

—

DANIEL LANOIS – "(UNDER THE) HEAVY SUN"

Musician and producer Daniel Lanois will release new album Heavy Sun on April 21.

—

THE MARIAS – "WE'RE THE LUCKY ONES"

Here's another very early holiday song, this time courtesy The Marias. “Even though it’s my favorite holiday and immediately gives me a sense of warmth and nostalgia for happier times, it also makes me grieve for the ones who lost their lives and didn’t make it to Christmas," says Maria. "I feel like one of the lucky ones. We are all lucky to be alive.”

—

ILE – "DONDE NADIE MÁS RESPIRA"

Puerto Rican composer and vocalist iLe has dropped this politically charged single, whose title translates to 'Where No One Else Breathes," just a few days before the U.S. election. “With this song, I hope to encourage people to get involved,” iLe says. “Take action to confront those in power and face the issues so that we can make real progress. It’s time to overthrow these twisted systems.” "Donde Nadie Más Respira" is moody with gorgeous, swelling strings.

DANNY ELFMAN – "HAPPY"

"It was written to be an absurd anti-pop song, designed to begin as a very simple pop tune that degrades into something more subversive," Danny says of his first solo "pop" material in 36 years. "The cynical nature of the lyrics echo how I feel about living in a semi-dystopian world turned upside down."
