\u201cOut Of My Head\u201d by Cara Delevingne<\/p>\n

As hyperbolic as it may sound, Cara Delevingne\u2019s<\/a> new music is unlike anything else you\u2019ll hear this year. At no point did I know where this song was going next; it\u2019s like 100 Gecs without the cringe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

It seems like all the girls collectively decided to start incorporating electric guitars in their songs this year, but we\u2019re not complaining. Quite the opposite, actually; anyone who has an issue with Ravyn Lenae\u2019s<\/a> new musical direction<\/a> has bad taste, end of discussion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cBrutalist\u201d by Kim Petras<\/p>\n

\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

A completely affecting song that stops you dead in your tracks. Not only is it a well written pop song laden with layers of metaphor, but the mere fact that Kim Petras<\/a> is giving us such an honest look into her past this deep into her career should be a reminder of her greatness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cStop\u201d by Bella Kay<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

The theme for this week is electric guitars, only this time, Bella Kay is taking the indie-rock sound and flipping it on its head with a flamenco-inspired groove. That, plus her calm, cool, and collected vocal performance makes for a really fun and unexpected listen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cDeep End\u201d by Julia Wolf<\/p>\n

\n
\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

This might just be the softest, most stripped down track we\u2019ve ever heard from Julia Wolf. The acoustic indie-rock sound suits her well, as it allows her striking voice and biting lyrics to cut straight through.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Leave it to Jae Stephens to train her man like the most obedient dog on the block. Knowing her, the positive reinforcement was minimal, and she probably had to pull out the shock collar a few times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There\u2019s a party at Violet Grohl\u2019s<\/a> grandma\u2019s house, and you\u2019re invited. Grohl has made her stance on the grunge resurgence very clear, but this song (and her debut album) proves that the Seattle alt-rock sound is encoded in her DNA.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Sexy, sultry, irresistible. Syd is back, baby.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Chxrry slides over this track so effortlessly that the subject matter may go over your head the first time \u2014 the true mark of a great song.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There\u2019s a full moon on May 31, and this would be a great song to listen to while basking in the warmth of its glow. Just saying.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
