We can count on Megan Thee Stallion to ruffle some feathers with each of her new releases, and she managed to do it again! Her new song “Hiss” is packed with countless disses that created a lot of commotion on social media and got us excited for her next studio album.

Justin Timberlake made a comeback this week, and gave us a taste of his new album with a brand-new single “Selfish”. Lil Nas X is also busy teasing the release of his sophomore album, and he surprised us with a new song “Where Do We Go Now?”, featured in his documentary Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero.

This week has been pretty epic for fans of alternative music, and many of the songs on our list hail from our favorite indie artists. From Tom Odell and Fletcher to Paris Paloma and Tierra Whack, all our faves graced us with amazing new tracks that we’re already listening to on repeat.

Thundercat (real name Stephen Lee Bruner) and Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker have split the writing credits on the song, and both served as producers. Hear “No More Lies” below.

“I’ve wanted to work with Kevin since the very first Tame Impala album,” said Thundercat in a press release. “I feel that I knew that us working together would be special. I’ve been excited about this song for a long time.”

“No More Lies” is the first new music from Thundercat since 2020 and his fourth solo album It Is What It Is. The record was met with widespread critical acclaim and won Grammy Award for Best Progressive R&B Album.

Unlike Thundercat, Kevin Parker and his project Tame Impala have kept themselves busy recently. Last year, they shared a collection of B-sides and remixes from their 2020’s album The Slow Rush while also dropping a number of singles and features. They kept the same pace in 2023, releasing “Wings of Time” as part of the soundtrack for fantasy flick Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.

This week’s list is defined by pop bops, and that’s not a shocker since Miley Cyrus just gave us a whole new album of them. It’s tough to single out just one best song from Endless Summer Vacation, but we decided to go with its second single “River”.

Pop bops on this week’s list come from every corner of the globe, from South Korea to the UK. Fans of K-pop will be happy to hear TWICE’s latest single “Set Me Free” while Eurovision fanatics have Mae Muller’s breakup anthem “I Wrote A Song” to look forward to.

If you prefer alternative sound, you won’t be disappointed by our list, because we have new releases by Depeche Mode, Tame Impala, and Róisín Murphy to look forward to this week… And don’t even get us started on Florence Welch’s amazing cover of No Doubt’s “Just a Girl”!

Depeche Mode – “My Cosmos Is Mine”

Miley Cyrus – “River”

Maluma – “La Reina”

Mae Muller – “I Wrote A Song”

Florence + The Machine – “Just A Girl”

Róisín Murphy – “CooCool”

TWICE – “Set Me Free”

Tame Impala – “Wings of Time”

Christine and the Queens – “To Be Honest”

Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding – “Miracle”

Compared to the original release, this new mix, titled The Slow Rush In An Imaginary Place, is more distorted and echoed. The overall feel of the sound could be described as if you were listening to the record from another room. 

Check it out for yourself below.

“I made something for all you isolators out there,” Parker wrote on Tame Impala’s official Instagram account. “I call it The Slow Rush In An Imaginary Place. Headphones required for a full immersive effect. See you in there.”

Tame Impala released Slow Rush back in February, with the record receiving great reviews from the critics. It was also a chart success, peaking at No.3 on the US Billboard 200.

Besides his work with Tame Impala, Kevin Parker also had a number of other projects in recent months, including a collab with The Weeknd — Parker contributed to his most recent album After Hours as a producer, and also provided back vocals for “Repeat After Me” (Interlude).

The iconic festival will take place at the Great Stage Park in Manchester, Tennessee over the course of a four-day weekend from June 11-14. Grand Ole Opry will hit the stage on opening day, with Lizzo, Tame Impala, and Tool serving as headliners on the following three nights.

The artists performing at Bonnaroo will occupy over 10 stages this June, and some of them are really worth seeing live. The list of performers includes Miley Cyrus, The 1975, Flume, Lana Del Rey, Vampire Weekend and countless other acts who’ll hit festival circle this year to promote their new material.

The first edition of Bonnaroo Music Festival took place in 2002, and it established itself as one of the best events of its kind in the years to come. Bonnaroo has repeatedly been praised for bringing a diverse array of musical styles to the stage, and this year’s lineup is no different – it includes everything from indie and classic rock to pop, hip-hop, and R&B.

Besides announcing the title of the album, which will serve as a follow up to 2015’s Currents, Tame Impala’s Instagram account shared the cover for their new studio effort.

The group also posted a short teaser for the album on YouTube and a new track, titled “It Might Be Time.” The track will be part of the the new album.

Kevin Parker, who is the founder and main creative force behind the psychedelic rock project that is Tame Impala, has been working on this new album for quite a while. Back in 2018, he shared that he hopes he will finish and release the record by the summer of 2019. Although this didn’t happen, the group released two singles, “Patience” and “Borderline.” It remains unclear whether these two songs will be part of The Slow Rush.

 The reason why Tame Impala took a bit longer to finish the new album is the group’s busy touring schedule. The band has spent most of the summer touring Europe and North America, where they headlined several prominent festivals including Coachella.

In an interview with the New York Times, frontman Kevin Parker explained why new music has not been released sooner. As it turns out, the reason is that he has put creating new music on hold is because he’s been feeling “on top of the world.” There just hasn’t been the urge there to make new music.

“Part of the thing about me starting an album is that I have to feel kind of worthless again to want to make music,” he told the New York Times.

“I started making music when I was a kid as a way of feeling better about myself, you know? The ironic thing is, if I’m feeling on top of the world or feeling confident or like everything’s good, I don’t have the urge to make music.”

So the good news is that new Tame Impala music is on its way, but the bad news is that Kevin Parker is feeling “kind of worthless.” And we don’t know what to make of that.

Here’s a reminder of the latest Tame Impala single in case you missed it:
