Kandle, Honey Trap | Track Review 🎵

Alternative British Columbia singer/songwriter Kandle delivers an absolutely stellar, must hear single with “Honey Trap.”

Zuli Jr. delivers a must hear, surefire bop with “Blue Sky,” set to appear on his forthcoming album, Stop It God.

Alternative collective We Were Sharks shines on their first single of 2021, “Problems,” set to appear on their 2021 album, New Low.

Elle King and Miranda Lambert make sweet music together on the fun, energetic, and drunken gem, “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home).”

AJR remain polarizing to some degree, but “Way Less Sad” is well-produced, relative enjoyable, and ultimately, inoffensive.

Riverside, CA alternative-indie pop/rock band Arrlo shine on their relatable, well-rounded second career single, “WFTWTE.”

The Musical Hype provides some quick thoughts on the song “IDWK” by up-and-comer 347aidan and producer Kenny Beats.

Lana Del Rey shines on “Chemtrails Over the Country Club,” the second single from her 2021 album, Chemtrails Over the Country Club.

MOD SUN and Avril Lavigne make an unlikely collaboration work incredibly well on the short but sweet single, “Flames.”

The Musical Hype provides some quick thoughts on the song 🎵 “Bummerland,” by alternative pop brother collective, 🎙 AJR.

AJR fall short on “My Play,” taking the hipster-millennial aesthetic too far on the third single from their 2021 album, OK ORCHESTRA.

The Musical Hype provides some quick thoughts on the song “Liberty Bell,” by alternative duo, DARKSIDE (Nicolas Jaar and Dave Harrington).
