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.
JIM LEGXACY – “AGGRESSIVE”
UK artist JIm Legxacy has signed to XL, and his first single for the label is the clubby rap&B track “Aggressive.”
