Twitter: @PeteHatesMusic You can’t have a Top Songs of 2018 list without a Top Albums of 2018 list, right? I copied that opening sentence from last year, so I’ll assume it turned out to be true. I’ve written a few...
Twitter: @PeteHatesMusic “New Year’s Resolution for 2018: Blog at least twice a month”. Mission unaccomplished! I started off well, and listened to a lot of music (60000+ minutes according to Spotify), but this didn’t translate to playlists that I published....
Now that it’s the middle of May, has everyone gotten their lame May puns out of their system? You know the ones – the N’Sync “It’s Gonna Be May”, as well as the Star Wars “May the 4th Be With...
April is over, so that means my tax return is late yet again. Nothing is certain but death and taxes, unless you never do a tax return, and are still alive. Take that, Benjamin Franklin! But enough about old idioms,...
We have an interesting new video from Lykke Li, who provided is with the top album of 2014, and her track Never Gonna Love Again. The song is a powerful yet sad breakup tune, blending her beautiful pop voice with...
Woodkid is known for his songs, sure, but he is more known (to me at least) for his mind blowing videos, such as Run Boy Run or I Love You. He has now roped in Lykke Li for a new...
How could this song not be a winner? It features Lykke Li (of PeteHatesMusic 2014 Album of the Year fame, and other stuff I’m sure) as well as Romy Madley Croft from The xx. The magician who pulled these stars...
Twitter: @PeteHatesMusic May has come and gone, which is good because June means the start of summer music festivals (and some thing I enjoy called the World Cup). Instead of making a playlist of terrible World Cup songs, I’ll give...
Lykke Li can do no wrong. After seamlessly dropping gorgeous track after gorgeous track for new album I Never Learn, she has another new track called No One Ever Loved. Okay – WE GET IT – you had your heartbroken....
Twitter: @PeteHatesMusic It’s May! It’s not warm in Toronto – people are still wearing those ridiculous Canada Goose jackets. Canadian Music Week is about to begin. So much goodness abound, but let me add to it for you. May I...
More beautiful stuff from Lykke Li, who only seems to release stuff of high quality these days. Following up I Never Learn, Love Me Like I’m Not Made Of Stone, and No Rest For The Wicked, is Gunshot. Gunshot has...
Twitter: @PeteHatesMusic March is just about over. To avoid having people think our playlist is an April Fools Day joke – Milli Vanilli, really? – we posted it a day early. That, and Mondays suck (just ask Garfield), so this...
Lykke Li is following up her excellent Wounded Rhymes with I Never Learn at the beginning of May. We have heard two really good in I Never Learn and Love Me Like I’m Not Made Of Stone. After the latest...
Last year at the Osheaga festival was a blast – check out our Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 reviews if you don’t believe me. I think the organizers have topped it this year. Check out the poster below...
More beautiful stuff from Lykke Li, following up that of I Never Learn. The track is called Love Me Like I’m Not Made of Stone, which is definitely something that I can do. The track is from upcoming album, I...
