Lorde, “Team”: New Zealand pop singer Lorde has dropped a new single from her debut LP, Pure Heroine, out September 30th on Republic. The 16-year-old describes the song’s heroes and heroines as “less classic courtesans on their pedestals, but nonetheless brilliant.”
Phantogram, “Black Out Day”: The buzzing “Black Out Day” is possibly-maybe the first taste of indie synth-pop duo Phantogram’s sophomore long player, their first release since 2011’s Nightlife EP.
Glasser, “Details”: Glasser, a.k.a. Cameron Meisrow, has shared another new song from her upcoming Interiors album, the follow-up to 2010’s Ring, due October 8th. Check out the ’60s-meets-’80s music video below:
