Arcade Fire, “The Lightning I” | Track Review 🎵

Arcade Fire makes a compelling comeback with “The Lightning I” and “The Lightning II,” lead singles from their 2022 album, WE.

Machine Gun Kelly better captures the pop-punk spirit on “maybe,” the third single from mainstream sellout featuring Bring Me the Horizon.

Florence + The Machine brings the heat (and the groove) on “My Love,” the third single from their fifth studio album, Dance Fever.

Machine Gun Kelly continues his melodic direction with “ay!” the second single from mainstream sellout featuring Lil Wayne.

Machine Gun Kelly & WILLOW join forces on “emo girl,” a pop-punk track with a dumb chorus and no shortage of predictable, emo clichés.

Ecology is on the minds of Red Hot Chili Peppers, who return with their first new single, “Black Summer,” in nearly six years.

“Funny Girl” is an utterly sublime way for singer/songwriter Father John Misty to kick off his Chloë and the Next 20th Century era.

Alternative collective Coldplay and K-Pop superstars BTS successfully collaborate on the entertaining, ‘universal’ single, “My Universe.”

Josh Katz and Badflower continue to impress on the explicitly titled “F*kboi,” the third advance single from This is How the World Ends.

L.A. alt-rock band Badflower don’t miss a beat on “Don’t Hate Me,” the second single from sophomore LP, This is How the World Ends.

Machine Gun Kelly brings ample energy and keeps it punk with respectable success on “papercuts,” but lacks innovative spirit.

L.A. alt-rock band Badflower return superbly on “Family,” the personal promo single from their sophomore LP, This is How the World Ends.
