Seattle-based all-girl pop-rock band THEM is dishing out a new tune for your New Music Friday playlists.

The twin duo Softcult has unleashed their latest offering, “Shortest Fuse.” Kicking off the track with “Yeah your boss forgot the payroll again/He’s such a capitalist/Don’t even know what we spent it on/Now you’re selling your guitar to pay rent,” the new release is a critique of capitalism societies and the hardships we’ve surely all experienced within recent years.

The result is a crescendo of dreamy and guitar-laden instrumentation erupting through your speakers for… Read more »

Bombastic, brawling, brilliant… there are many adjectives that have been used to describe Oasis – and many of the most flattering ones have come directly from the group itself. As with anything the marble-mouthed Manchester lads put out, Don’t Believe the Truth, their first album since 2002’s Heathen Chemistry, is sure to earn them many more colorful descriptions. “Lyla,” the first single, will sate any hunger pangs for Oasis’ familiar guitar jangles.
