Given all of the bad things to happen in 2020, PeteHatesMusic emerging from its year-plus slumber is just another lump of coal in the 2020 stocking. Besides endless meetings consisting of “You’re on mute!”, “Can you see my screen?”, and...
Twitter: PeteHatesMusic “I can’t believe (this artist) is not in the top 5!” “What were you thinking putting (this artist) at #2 on your list!” These are some of the “compliments” passed along to those who compile year end lists....
Twitter: @PeteHatesMusic As the year winds to an end, we beat Santa to the gift giving and present you our Top Songs of 2015 list. Like all lists, it’s subjective as hell, but objectively we are awesome, so maybe that...
Grimes has been teasing a ‘surprise’ album release for sometime. We knew that the name of the new album would be Art Angels, and it will be out on November 6. What we didn’t know was that we’d be getting...
Does Grimes scrap more great songs than anyone else? Last year, we had the PHM Song of the Year, Go, which Grimes decided not to put on her new, yet to be released album. We now get another tune that...
Well, well, well. My calendar tells me that summer is all but over, but the sweat on my couch in my non-air conditioned house tells me otherwise. Due to my World Cup travels and constant summer laziness hangovers, I’ve decided...
Everyone’s favourite Canadian indie songstress, Grimes, is back with new music that I imagine has been eagerly awaited (via Pitchfork). The new song is called Go and is described as a “summer jam”. You get Grimes’ amazing voice over some...
We’ve been taunted and teased with new songs by Klaxons for months. We have less than a week to go, and we get a video for the upbeat dance track Show Me a Miracle. The video is sci-fi and fitting...
PHM favourite CHVRCHES (one of the top albums of 2013, we interviewed them, you know the drill) recently played the Billboard Women in Music 2013 evening. Led by singer Lauren Mayberry, the band played an excellent cover of the Janelle...
Unlike me, who ran naked across my school’s basketball court, Sam Smith first got some notice by appearing with Disclosure and their track Latch. The UK singer is now goin’ it alone, and is dropping an album in 2014. Ahead...
Some new stuff from California duo Best Coast. Two guesses which coast they think is the best? Following up recent release Fade Away is the video for a track off of Fade Away called I Don’t Know How, the opposite...
We have a dancey, dreamy song to wake you up today. The track is by Steffaloo (aka Steph Thompson) from Los Angeles. The track features Chrome Sparks, and is called Eyes for You, which is what some girl will have...
A couple of weeks ago, just after we did our interview with Daughter, we caught opening act Wilsen. One of the stand out tracks from the set was their spin on the Grimes track Oblivion. Wilsen have released the track...
