Marietta EP
by Medium Construct
Medium Construct has at all times made music for the emotionally unguarded — songs that ache and shimmer with unresolved longing, full of the uncooked humanity of somebody attempting to make sense of their previous and current in actual time. His fifth studio album (and main label debut), Nation, noticed singer/songwriter Nick Carpenter digging into himself — each figuratively and actually — to make one thing candy, uncooked, and direct. “I wished this album to have my goddamn DNA on it,” he candidly informed me final yr — and it did.
With the five-track Marietta EP, Carpenter continues this intimate journey, peeling again one more layer as he traces his roots, his relationships, and his sense of self all the best way again to the city that raised him. If Nation was his thesis on id, lineage, and inherited weight, Marietta seems like its echo: A self-contained postscript that softens, sharpens, and stitches collectively what got here earlier than. It’s a five-track snapshot of unresolved reminiscences and ongoing processing that didn’t fairly belong to the document that got here earlier than it, however nonetheless brings us nearer and nearer to understanding Nick Carpenter in tandem together with his personal self-discovery.
He affectionately calls them his “remedy trauma tunes,” and for good cause: From the primary guitar strums of “Triple Marathon” to the ultimate echoes of “Light Blue,” Carpenter unpacks his upbringing and childhood, his dad and mom, his (former) faith, and the whole lot in between. Every of Marietta‘s 5 gorgeous songs affords a unique lens by which to view the previous — some jagged, some tender, all deeply human. Whether or not he’s reckoning with non secular trauma on “Yoke” or channeling his interior unhealthy boy on “Dad’s 4Runner,” Carpenter threads vulnerability by each second, blurring the road between private reminiscence and shared emotional reality.
Atwood Journal beforehand praised the EP’s superbly gut-wrenching opener “Triple Marathon,” a track born from pure desperation a few “relationship-situationship-friendship factor” (his phrases), as a “breathtaking, brutally sincere upheaval from Carpenter’s most intimate and susceptible depths.”
“John & Lydia” is one other immediate standout – an intensely emotional, achingly intimate, and deeply private anthem, the EP’s second observe sees Carpenter singing to, for, and about his dad and mom, John and Lydia. “Did I develop up into somebody that you just like? I do know that the folks you heard from informed you it was all black and white,” he roars, happening to create a cinematic, soul-stirring mantra out of an inescapable, inevitable reality: “The issues that have been shaping you, the issues which might be shaping me, and we each know you’ll be able to’t run from household. Would we’ve got been pals if we have been born on the similar time? Perhaps in one other life…”
Whether or not it’s an anthem of therapeutic, a uncooked launch, or an empathetic mirror, every observe on Marietta holds house for reflection — each Carpenter’s and ours. The EP’s resonance lies in its specificity, in addition to its timelessness: The extra Medium Construct opens up about his personal experiences, his personal humanity, the extra listeners can see themselves in his songs. Having simply seen Medium Construct play for the primary time final week, I felt it lastly time to provide Marietta its due, and acknowledge its songs for his or her weight, their heat, and their price.

Aperture
by The Head and the Coronary heart
Open your ears, open your eyes, open your coronary heart, and take all of it in: The nice, the unhealthy, the enjoyment, the ache, the love – the whole lot this unbelievable life has to supply. I’ll have many extra phrases to say about The Head and the Coronary heart’s sixth studio album over time, however what I’ll say for now’s this: Fifteen years into their storied profession, the band’s folk-laced music continues to be as contemporary and enjoyable as it’s free-spirited and philosophically profound. Launched on Could ninth by way of Verve Forecast, Aperture is “an invite to get up within the current second recognizing that it’s all we’ve got, in all its contradictions of magnificence and ache, pleasure and despair, unfathomable vastness and impermanence,” per band member Matty Gervais. In observe, that interprets to wealthy, heat harmonies, radiant melodies, thought-provoking lyrics, invigorating instrumentals, and immediately memorable singalongs – all delivered with the fervour and seasoned power of execs who, regardless of their years of doing this, proceed to search out inspiration in themselves and of their on a regular basis.
What’s maybe most hanging about Aperture is its vary: Whereas songs like “After the Setting Solar,” “Time With My Sins,” and “Arrow” unpack intimate reflections on id, objective, and life’s better that means by a well-known, sun-kissed sound, The Head and the Coronary heart spend quite a lot of this document attempting on new garments – each musical and topical. The pressing and emotionally charged “Cop Automotive” is an apparent standout: Jonathan Russell’s voice is at its rawest as he sings from the again of a police cruiser, indignant and scared, uncertain of his current and fearful for his future: “I’m driving in a cop automotive tonight, wanting outdoors because the blinks go by, questioning how we gonna die.” Not solely do The Head and the Coronary heart deliver a flicker of humanity and empathy to these whom society so usually turns a blind eye, however they achieve this with grace, tact, allure, angst, and an exquisite center finger to the boys in blue.
However that’s removed from Aperture‘s solely vivid spot: From the plush, hypnotic, and heartrending “Pool Break” and the euphoric, life-affirming “Jubilee” to the feel-good reverie “Hearth Escape” (a really basic THATH tune) and the hopeful “Beg, Steal, Borrow,” The Head and the Coronary heart’s sixth studio album proves to be a significant, memorable, altogether shifting ray of sunshine in 2025’s musical panorama.
In reality, it’s songs like “Pool Break” and “Jubilee” which have been my private highlights to this point – two particular songs that discover The Head and the Coronary heart increasing the sonic world we’ve come to know and love by daring vocal harmonies and emotionally potent matters that hit exhausting and depart an enduring impression.
“For me, Aperture represents the selection all of us should make between resigning ourselves to darkness, or letting the sunshine in and recognizing our personal company to take action,” Matty Gervais shares. “It feels related to the occasions, in that we’re actually selecting between authoritarianism vs. democracy. Ignorance vs. enlightenment on a macro scale, and complacency/cynicism vs. hope, empathy and perseverance on the micro scale. To me, it sums up numerous what every of those songs is grappling with in some type and what we’ve collectively gone by as a band. It’s about selecting hope repeatedly, regardless of what number of occasions it might really feel that you’ve misplaced it.”
True to their title as soon as once more, The Head and the Coronary heart have used each their heads and their hearts to create considered one of this yr’s greatest albums – an electrifying, exhilarating people rock journey into our shared humanity that meets the current second with ardour, tenacity, vulnerability, and above all else, hope.
“Unsuitable”
by Hudson Thames
To share your innermost self with the world is an act of quiet bravery. It means stripping again each layer, letting go of pretense, and permitting others to see the elements of you which might be nonetheless therapeutic, nonetheless questioning, nonetheless uncooked. Hudson Thames does simply that in “Unsuitable,” an achingly intimate piano ballad that reads like a journal entry cracked huge open. Weak, impassioned, confessional, and soul-baring, it feels much less like a efficiency and extra like an open wound. Each line pulses with unfiltered emotion as Thames lays naked his fears of affection, connection, and dedication – not as a result of he doesn’t care, however as a result of he cares so deeply it terrifies him.
I’m afraid of your love
Afraid that it’s actual
Of sharing my time
Or sharing a meal
Afraid of the best way
You make me really feel
I’m afraid that it’s proper
Afraid that it’s good
That possibly you recognize me
Like no person may
Afraid issues work out
The way in which they need to
With solely a piano beneath him, Thames lets his voice bear the total emotional weight of his phrases: “I’m afraid of your love / Afraid that it’s actual.” His singing is wealthy and filled with quiet desperation, carrying the burden of somebody torn between wanting love and being too scared to let it in. The track’s sparse association – simply piano and voice – underscores the intimacy and depth of the second. You’re feeling such as you’re sitting subsequent to him on the keys, listening in on a personal confession he by no means meant to say out loud. He’s not hiding behind metaphor or abstraction – he’s naming his worry, line by line, verse by verse. The result’s devastating in its simplicity. The extra he opens up, the extra we really feel the ache of somebody caught within the crossfire between longing and self-protection, between love and the deep-rooted worry of what love calls for.
‘Trigger if I wished love
I’d have it now
I’d cool down
Then I’d cool down
However I… I can’t resolve
And if I wished pals
They’d be right here now
They’d have my again
In a violent crowd
However I… obtained an excessive amount of pleasure
However possibly that’s all incorrect
Unsuitable incorrect
Perhaps that’s all incorrect
Unsuitable incorrect
“I believe, or a minimum of I hope, that ‘Unsuitable’ touches on a topic that each one artists have skilled to some extent; How a lot of a ‘regular’ life do I get to have?” Thames shares. “Seemingly, artwork and performing have at all times been at odds with any relationship that I’ve been in. The connection I share with my music is sort of demanding in its personal ceremony. And when it requires all of me, it feels troublesome to create space for the rest. This track is me, in a brand new chapter of my life, attempting to make some sense of that. I nonetheless don’t have the reply. However that’s the level of the whole lot that I make; to open up the dialog in hopes of discovering one.”
It’s this stress – between artwork and intimacy, presence and efficiency – that kinds the emotional spine of “Unsuitable.” It’s a dilemma acquainted to many artists – methods to reconcile the depth of inventive life with the intimacy of human connection – and “Unsuitable” finds Thames within the thick of that stress. He’s afraid of what love may price, of who he may turn into if he let it in, and of what he may lose if he doesn’t. But the track isn’t with out hope. The chorus “I hope that I’m all incorrect” lands like a want whispered in the dead of night: tender, unsure, and quietly defiant.
I’m afraid of your dad
Afraid of his eyes
Afraid when he tells me
That I’m a superb man
Afraid of the best way
I make him smile
I’m afraid of a son
That isn’t alive
Afraid he’ll be excellent
And develop up simply advantageous
Afraid of the actual fact
That he’d be mine
There’s a quiet bravery in how Thames confronts himself: His worry of being liked, his uncertainty about settling down, and the haunting thought that possibly he’s constructed a life too singular for companionship. And nonetheless, he surrenders – letting somebody in.
With its basic pop sensibility and uncooked emotional core, “Unsuitable” is a standout not only for its lyricism and efficiency, however for its honesty. In laying himself naked, Hudson Thames captures one thing common: The way in which worry and love usually stroll hand-in-hand, and the braveness it takes to face them each. Taken from Hudson Thames’ just lately launched debut album Bambino, “Unsuitable” is timeless and gutting – a diary entry, a plea, a prayer. It’s additionally one of the vital compelling showcases of his power as a vocalist and songwriter to this point. Vulnerability this sincere isn’t simple to seize, however when it lands, it hits like reality.
And if I wished you
You’ll know by now
I’d have informed the reality
I’d have caught round
However I… I’m afraid it’s proper
And if I f* this up
That’s simply how it’s
If the longer term lies
Then what lies in it
Oh I… I have to admit
I hope that I’m all incorrect
Unsuitable incorrect
I hope that I’m all incorrect
Unsuitable incorrect
I’m afraid of your love
Afraid that it’s actual
Of sharing my time
Or sharing a meal
Afraid of the best way
You make me really feel
“One Factor”
by Lola Younger
Lola Younger doesn’t simply flirt with vulnerability – she dives headfirst into it, with no filter and completely no apologies. “One Factor,” her first launch of the yr and official return following the breakout success of This Wasn’t Meant for You Anyway, is a daring, brazen, and deeply seductive declaration of need. Simmering with soul and teeming with sweaty warmth and uncooked sexuality, it’s the form of track that makes your pores and skin tingle and your chest tighten – a late-night, love-soaked reverie laced with longing, lust, and energy.
Oh, hello
I wanna take you on just a little journey
I wanna make you are feeling so good
I wanna make you are feeling appreciated
if you’re deep up in me
If you’re deep up inside
I wanna present you simply what I like
I wanna kiss you gradual, wanna f* you tough
I wanna eat you up,
I wanna cook dinner you lunch,
I wanna love you, babe
Anchored by a dubby, head-bobbing groove and fluttering guitars, “One Factor” finds Younger in full command – not simply of her voice, however of the second. Her hot-on-the-mic supply is equal elements silky and sharp, shifting seamlessly from sultry coo to breathless plea to commanding presence. The lyrics are intimate, carnal, and strikingly self-aware: “Everyone desires to know ya / However me, I solely need one factor.” And but, there’s depth behind the smoldering seduction. That is way over a steamy hookup observe – it’s an exploration of the emotional and psychological weight that usually comes with intercourse, particularly for girls.
“It’s a track that on first pay attention appears like I’m speaking about one factor. Intercourse. Which I’m, in fact. Nonetheless intercourse in itself isn’t about one factor,” Younger explains. “I wished to make a track and music video that’s thought-provoking and highlights intercourse being each a enjoyable and lightweight factor, not at all times significant, in addition to exhibiting how gender roles could be reversed.”
Because the verse offers method to the pre-chorus, Younger’s voice rises with urgency and anticipation – breathy, sizzling, and hungry. The stress builds as she leans into the physicality of the second, her vocals dancing over the beat with a rising sense of need. It’s within the refrain that the whole lot snaps into place: a launch, a reckoning, and a revelation suddenly. “Break your mattress after which the couch / I wanna pull you nearer” she sings, proudly owning her desires with conviction. The manufacturing swells beneath her – sultry but playful – as she declares that her intentions are clear, singular, and completely on her phrases. The result’s hypnotic and empowering, turning lust into liberation.
You recognize the place I wanna be, I need you proper beneath me
Are you able to simply stay just a little, let your hair down?
I’m screaming for you, I can’t breathe,
flip the sunshine off, I’ma moist the sheets
There’s lots sufficient for me to go ’spherical
Break your mattress after which the couch
I wanna pull you nearer
Everyone desires to know ya
However me, I solely need one factor
I don’t even need your quantity
Don’t care should you obtained one other
‘Trigger tonight, I’m your solely lover
And I’ma provide you with that one factor
I’ma provide you with that one factor (Uh)
In that spirit, the Dave Meyers–directed visible captures Younger’s irreverent allure and intelligent provocations, reframing intimacy by playful situations: A boxing match along with her exes, an all-girls classroom, a date turned energy play, and even a tantalizing make-out with herself. It’s cheeky, sure – but in addition subversive, good, and self-possessed.
That is the magic of musical maverick Lola Younger. She writes songs that hit like a punch and linger like a kiss – unfiltered, magnetic, and endlessly assured. With “One Factor,” she continues to carve out an area that’s totally her personal: One the place intercourse and company, pleasure and complexity, don’t should be mutually unique. It’s a triumphant, teasing, and totally intoxicating return – and a reminder that few artists can command a mic, or a second, fairly like Lola Younger.
You look so cute with no garments on
It feels so proper once I’m appearing so incorrect
No small discuss, that shit’s too lengthy
And also you’re breakin’ my again, you’re so, so robust
And I need you so unhealthy, like “OMG”
Turnin’ off my cellphone to DND
And a pair little hours is all I would like
Panties nonetheless on, you’ll be able to go in between me, and
You know the way I wanna be,
I need you proper beneath me
Are you able to simply stay just a little and let your hair down?
No one will ever know, we will placed on our personal little present
Save that big-dick power for my mouth, yeah
Break your mattress after which the couch
I wanna pull you nearer
Everyone desires to know ya
However me, I solely need one factor
I don’t even need your quantity
Don’t care should you obtained one other
‘Trigger tonight, I’m your solely lover
And I’ma provide you with that one factor (Yeah)
I’ma provide you with that one factor, that one factor,
that one factor, that one factor, ah
I’ma provide you with that one factor (All night time)
DE’WAYNE is strutting into a brand new period, and he’s doing it with fashion, swagger, and soul. “june” is a flame-lit anthem – electrifying, seductive, and sonically untamed. Equal elements funk and punk, pop and rock, it’s a genre-defying sizzler that grooves with the fearless charisma of Prince, the eccentricity of Bowie, and the rhythmic pulse of Speaking Heads, all whereas being unmistakably and unapologetically DE’WAYNE. The title observe off his upcoming third album (june, out July 30 by way of Fearless Data) doesn’t simply mark a return – it’s a reintroduction, a metamorphosis, and a full-bodied celebration of affection, need, and divine femininity.
Me and June go to the town
round 9 a.m. and get actually drunk
We roll up into the 7-Eleven
like we have been dropped from Heaven
and ripped a pair mini photographs
We obtained hit by cameras, we’re no instance
But everyone nonetheless wanna watch
And I kissed her hand although we have been simply pals
I’m enamored by the best way that she loves me

It’s heavy. It’s enjoyable as hell. And it’s dripping in that DE’WAYNE magic – the sort that makes you wish to dance, scream, kiss, and soar out of your pores and skin suddenly.
Her title is Junе,

Plus, she obtained me going (Ah),

“I wrote ‘June’ as a result of I needed to – it poured out of me,” DE’WAYNE shares. “I used to be closely impressed by Speaking Heads and Prince, however I wished this to achieve everyone; younger or outdated, no matter your background, everyone knows what it’s wish to fall for somebody who flips your world the other way up. For the followers, I hope this exhibits that I’ve really discovered my voice. I need them to really feel my coronary heart on this one – and possibly see just a little of themselves in it too.”
“‘June’ got here from an actual transformation in my life,” he continues. “It’s about assembly somebody – or one thing – that shifts your whole world. For me, that was this divine female power I name June. A fantastic guiding drive in my life and music. The track captures that first second of connection. Sonically, I wished it to really feel like falling in love and waking up on the similar time – uncooked guitars, actual drums, however with heat and soul.”
Me and June go good like burgundy lipstick

Each time we get round one another
makes me wanna dance the night time away
We obtained hit by cameras, we’re no instance
But everyone nonetheless wanna watch (I let ’em watch)
And I kissed her hand although we have been simply pals

“June” is a lot greater than a reputation – it’s a drive. A personality. A muse. A guiding gentle. “These songs are me expressing my love, admiration, and craving for her,” DE’WAYNE explains. “The title observe is an anthem to strut to. It’s daring, highly effective, and undeniably for ‘june,’ because it celebrates the female energy and divine drive she represents to me.” That admiration radiates by each line – from the playful lyrics and cheeky callouts to the groove-heavy association that virtually glides throughout the ground. It is a love track, sure – however it’s additionally a liberation.
“That is my epic rock love album. I gave the whole lot – blood, sweat, tears, love, intercourse, spirituality, and reality,” DE’WAYNE displays. “Each track was a give up, and ‘june’ is the sunshine guiding all of it. I wished to reframe vulnerability as a superpower, not a weak point, and use this document to point out my evolution – not simply as an artist, however as a human being. I consider this can stand as one of the vital highly effective rock albums of the yr.”

“Catherine Wheel”
by Jack Garratt
Jack Garratt doesn’t simply make a comeback – he erupts again into body with a finessed firestorm of feeling. “Catherine Wheel,” the explosive lead single off his upcoming third album Pillars (out August 15th by way of Cooking Vinyl), is a radiant rush of emotion and electrical energy – a blazing, beat-driven outpouring of longing, lust, heartache, and warmth. It’s messy. It’s huge. It’s the whole lot we’ve come to like about Garratt, distilled into one searing, hovering, sky-scraping anthem.
“Hit my head, scratch my again, depart me on learn, get me on observe,” he sings within the track’s opening breath, harmonized and sizzling on the mic. His voice is shut, intimate, and uncooked – trembling with ardour one second, thundering with frustration the subsequent. He’s in-your-face, and bigger than life, all on the similar time. “Pull on the lever, do no matter you are feeling, set me on hearth like a catherine wheel.” It’s a line that lingers lengthy after the track ends, not solely due to its evocative depth, however due to its layered that means. The Catherine wheel is each a childhood firework – a round pinwheel of sparks – and a brutal medieval torture system. There’s one thing poignant in that duality: The gorgeous and the painful, whirring violently in the identical breath. Love, in Garratt’s palms, has at all times been a push and pull – and right here, it burns.
Hit my head
Scratch my again
Depart me on learn
Get me on observe
Pull on the lever, do no matter you are feeling
Set me on hearth like a catherine wheel
I do know just a little about numerous issues
And I can educate you methods to hold me,
if that’s what you need
It’s as simple as setting hearth to grease within the ocean
What the water burn
I do know I went away and it was getting late
However the night time was coming oh so nearer to the top of the sunshine
And two shadows within the distance met me on my return
Theres considered one of you, and considered one of another person
It’s been over a decade since I first fell beneath Jack Garratt’s spell – for the reason that singular, seductive “Fear” first taught me that electro-pop may very well be bizarre, warped, and nonetheless totally heartfelt. In 2020, I wrote that his sophomore album Love, Demise & Dancing discovered Garratt “embracing a extra liberated, fluid model of himself,” creating music that was “deeply private and painfully self-aware.” That journey continues on Pillars, however the place Love, Demise & Dancing’s songs discovered Garratt wrestling with isolation and id, “Catherine Wheel” bursts ahead with objective and keenness. This isn’t the sound of an artist doubting himself – that is the sound of Jack Garratt totally lit up from the within.
There’s another person
(Pull on the lever, do no matter you are feeling)
(Set me on hearth like a catherine wheel)
“The track is about this situationship that I had with a lady two years in the past,” Garratt explains. “That feeling of being left on learn is heartbreaking if you find yourself somebody like me, who is completely emotionally anxious – and I’m engaged on that!” That ache seeps into each lyric, from the oil-slick metaphors to the unshakable chorus: “I don’t wanna see you with another person.” He’s spinning in circles, combusting, looking for stillness within the storm of heartbreak and obsession.
Written throughout a second of near-abandonment – “I used to be totally able to stop music,” Garratt admits – “Catherine Wheel” grew to become his spark. “It reignited my love for creating and set the tone for the complete album.” That tone is considered one of catharsis: letting each beat, each synth stab, each layered concord say the issues he couldn’t converse aloud. It’s daring, messy, euphoric – the sonic equal of being consumed by one thing you’ll be able to’t fairly title.
Say one thing that feels sticky in my ears
‘Trigger the phrases are pouring
out of you identical to oil on water
I see you floating on the floor,
you look so fairly
However there’s bother beneath
And you recognize that should you wished
you can come again
And I’d take you my arms
and spin you to the top of the sunshine
Oh in my embrace you match so good
However there’s one thing else
There’s another person
Oh oh
There’s another person
Oh oh
There’s another person
And but, inside all of the chaos is readability. “Catherine Wheel” seems like Garratt moving into the sunshine – not simply as a producer or performer, however as an individual who’s lived, damage, burned, and are available out the opposite facet. It’s a reckoning. A renewal. And a reminder of simply how thrilling it’s to witness Jack Garratt in full flame: A limitlessly gifted one-man band – a multi-hyphenate singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist who doesn’t simply make music, however embodies it. Ever since he gained the coveted Brits’ Critics’ Selection Award and the BBC Sound Of ballot in 2016, Garratt has been a singular drive of nature, each out and in of the highlight. I’ve seen him command a complete stage by himself, weaving drums, bass, synths, guitar, and vocals into an awe-inspiring, genre-blurring symphony. There’s really nobody else like him.
Hit my head
Scratch my again
Depart me on learn
Get me on observe
Pull on the lever, do no matter you are feeling
Set me on hearth like a catherine wheel
Oh my god I simply can’t get going
By myself with out ever figuring out
If I’m gonna see you in a summer time costume
I don’t wanna see you with another person
Hit my head
Scratch my again
Depart me on learn
Get me on observe
Pull on the lever, do no matter you are feeling
And set me on hearth like a catherine wheel
