Paul McCartney, “New”: Paul McCartney’s new single, “New,” doesn’t sound very new at all, but that’s probably the point. The bouncy, vintage-sounding track, produced by Mark Ronson, is from the singer-songwriter’s upcoming solo album of the same name, due October 15th.

Arctic Monkeys, “Stop the World I Wanna Get Off with You”: Arctic Monkeys have shared “Stop the World I Wanna Get Off with You,” a B-side from their new album, AM, out September 10th. The characteristically unwieldy song title isn’t so much an homage to Modern English’s ’80s—err, ’90s—hit “Melt with You” as it is an opportunity to make an admittedly cheeky pun.

Frankie Rose, “Street of Dreams”: Brooklyn’s Frankie Rose has revealed a second song off her forthcoming Fat Possum debut, Herein Wild, out September 24th. The track is a cover of British punk band the Damned’s “Street of Dreams” and also sports a subtle Billy Idol vibe.
