“Black Dog Rabbit Hole” by Devon Gilfillian is one of those songs that feels almost like it has been around forever. The sound is so similar to classic rock songs that we love, but he still has managed to add his own modern twist on that sound along with his lyrics that capture the internal battles that we go through every day.
Earlier this year, one of New England’s favorite sons, Noah Kahan, released his fourth studio album, The Great Divide. In what feels like a letter from an old friend, Kahan, through The Great Divide explores feelings of isolation and resentment with friends and lovers. Nowhere across the album is this more prevalent than on “Downfall.”
When it comes to music that has completely changed the landscape of rock, few bands have had as great of an influence on the scene as Fontaines DC. Following their 2024 album, Romance, The Irish band is back with “Marianne,” the first single off their upcoming album, Dopamine Chamber
Earlier this summer, legendary vocalist and guitarist Jack White released his most recent album, Frozen Charlotte, in July. Along with its 12 other songs is “Neighbors Blues,” a song infused with classic Blues rock throughout its entire runtime. “Neighbors Blues” is one of those songs that feels timeless and sounds like it has been around forever, not since July.
– Lindsay Gould, Music Coordinator When I first got into beabadoobee, it was through some of her softer songs like “Soren” and “Tired.” I love that…
Surprisingly, for me, one of my favorite songs that I have heard this summer has been “Yip Yip Yow” by Caroline Rose. It has everything you could ever want, with a slamming guitar riff, whooping drums and a kind of upbeat energy that you always associate with summer!
This week for our Pick of the Week, we have an amazingly powerful and raw song by Arlo Parks, “Beams.” On “Beams,” Parks becomes more vulnerable than perhaps she has ever been on one of her songs, as she takes us through years of her navigating her own mental health and the people around her.
Jack Antonoff and his band, Bleachers returned to us this year with their new album, Everyone for Ten Minutes. Out of all the standout songs on the album, “ we should talk,” checks all the right boxes for us. It is emotional, catchy, and you’re able to listen to it any time with ease, why wouldn’t you love it?
One of the most interesting things in folk music over the past couple of years has been the development of social media and musical sensation Jesse Welles. On “Won’t You Come Out Tonight,” Welles exchanges his traditional protest style of music to become more of a traditional love song with modern motifs embedded throughout.
Who would have thought that in the middle of 2026, seemingly out of nowhere Weezer would announce not only a new tour, but a new album as well. On “We Might As Well Be Strangers,” somehow Weezer, in their 20+ year career, breaks new ground and discovers a fresh, modern indie sound with Wednesday.
To release one album and it be great, to shifting completely and establishing yourself as no easy feat. With her most recent studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad For a Girl So In Love, megastar Olivia Rodrigo has continued to reach new heights in her music, through songs such as “the cure.”
“Dance The Pain Away” by Haute & Freddy is exactly as the title would suggest. The song is infectiously up beat, while also hiding the pain that lies within the lyrics. Teased originally in 2025, “Dance The Pain Away” is the perfect introduction to Haute & Freddy!
