Ethel Cain has shared her new song, “Fuck Me Eyes” from her upcoming album Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You, out everywhere on August 8. Cain, aka Hayden Anhedönia, shares, “Continuing in the theme of high school anxieties, ‘Fuck Me Eyes’ (on top of being an homage to one of my favorite pop songs of all time, ‘Bette Davis Eyes‘) is meant to be an ode to the girls who are perfect and have everything, yet carry the reputation of town slut.

After making a searing return with her first solo release in years—“POPSICLE”—a venom-laced anthem that marks a powerful reassertion of identity, rage, and creative control, Lilith Czar has dropped the Edgar Allan Poe-inspired video. From its opening lines (“You two-faced son of a bitch / You fucking make me sick”), she wastes no time reclaiming her voice, launching straight into a snarling chorus that reads like a warning: “Easy rocking bomb pop / Gonna make your heart stop.” “‘The Portrait’ video for ‘POPSICLE’ was inspired by Poe’s The Oval Portrait – a story about obsession and how it drains the… Read more »

With the final season of Netflix’s You causing quite a stir on the internet since its launch last Thursday, April 26, we’re putting our own spin on bidding the series farewell. Record spin, that is. The main character, Joe Goldberg, played by Penn Badgley, is a man of too-many-to-keep-track-of contradictions. Bookish yet brutal, romantic yet ruthless. Across five seasons of You, each of Joe’s love interests reveals a different shade of his psyche and a different version of deeply disturbing obsession. But what if we soundtracked their stories? Below, we’ve paired each of his partners with the album that best… Read more »

The band shares across their social channels, “Sandbox is finally out and along side it, a music video that I can’t believe we got to make. Visionary music video legend Joseph Kahn has helmed a masterpiece that adds to the pantheon of our visual catalogue, taking us on a real horror-show of a ride that, after I saw the first cut I remember saying “holy shit, we’re back.”… Read more »
