So many artists, so many songs, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we’d call “indie,” and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. We update a playlist weekly of some of our current favorite tracks. Here’s a daily roundup with a bunch of interesting, newly released songs in one place.

DANESHEVSKAYA – “ROY G BIV”
Daneshevskaya’s new album and first for Winspear, Long Is the Tunnel, is out on November 10, and she’s shared the final pre-release single, “ROY G BIV.” “This song was definitely inspired by working with kids and seeing how their worlds hinge upon small discrepancies,” she says. “I always love when kids instinctually put things in order, and I could see a lot of the time how putting things in the right order calmed them. I think adults do that too in their own way.”

CHEEKFACE – “LARGEST MUSCLE”
“Despite the opening lyric, I’m pretty sure your heart is not actually your largest muscle,” says Cheekface’s Greg Katz of his band’s new single. “Then again, you shouldn’t necessarily look to Cheekface songs for medical information. Better to check WebMD.”

SARAH MARY CHADWICK – “IF I HAVE IT IN ME AT ALL”
Following the release of her new album Messages to God, Sarah Mary Chadwick has shared a new bonus track and performance video. “I write so many songs that there are always some casualties, some songs that I love that don’t end up making it onto a record for reasons other than my affection for them,” she says. “This is one of those songs. It’s a love song written when I felt worried that I didn’t have enough to give. And I guess that still remains to be seen.”
