Chanel Beads, Your Day Will Come

Shane Lavers captures the awe and unease of humanity’s impermanence on his debut album of dissociative dream pop.

Couch Slut, You Could Do It Tonight

Leaning into their lyrical strength of expressing life as we know it as a visceral horror story, the sludge-rockers’ fourth album is equally notable for its unexpected instrumental flourishes.

The Libertines, All Quiet on The Eastern Esplanade

Almost 30 years into their existence, the post-punk revivalists let listeners know that their youthful fire hasn’t dimmed on their fourth, most tightly wound album.

After winning us over with the announcement of its new Internet radio station Beats 1, Apple Music has sweetened the deal by giving the Run the Jewels duo Killer Mike and El-P their own radio show.

WRTJ—which airs every Friday at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT—will follow the pair on the remaining dates of their world tour behind RTJ2. Get a preview of the duo’s comedic antics below via Instagram, wherein they discuss their preferred fantasy pets.

Chances are we’ll probably be treated to some more snippets of Meow the Jewels material in the near future thanks to this new radio program.
