Music Monday: “I Still Have Faith in You” and “Don’t Shut Me Down” by ABBA
This is not a drill: ABBA is releasing a brand new album on November 5th titled Voyage and they’ve just released two new singles, “I Still Have Faith In You” and “Don’t Shut Me Down.” I’m absolutely, 100% writing through my tears while listening to “I Still Have Faith In You” on replay right now. The time for a breakdown to “Don’t Shut Me Down” is coming soon too. I

Music Monday: ‘Pressure Machine’ by The Killers
The Killers are back with their seventh studio album, Pressure Machine, proving to us that you can never be too busy during a pandemic. Released just under a year after their last album, Imploding the Mirage, the band’s latest record is a concept album exploring Brandon Flower’s childhood in Nephi, Utah. The album also sees the return of guitarist Dave Keuning and the absence of bassist Mark Stoermer, who opted

Music Monday: ‘Gunpowder Milkshake’ (Original Score) by Frank Ilfman
Gunpowder Milkshake is easily one of the most enjoyable films I watched this year, and its companion original score composed by Frank Ilfman is right alongside it as impeccable. Frank Ilfman’s original score for Gunpowder Milkshake is both action-packed and slowly-encompassing. A large part of it reminds me of one of my all-time favorites, The Man from U.N.C.L.E.’s by Daniel Pemberton. There is something so brilliantly whimsical about it even

Music Monday: ‘Loki’ Soundtrack: Vol 1 and 2 by Natalie Holt
Let it be known, that while I was at Walt Disney World, on my first vacation since the beginning of the pandemic, I woke up on July 2nd excited to finally get my hands virtually on the Loki soundtrack. I’m home now for the release of the second volume and, I’ve listened to the two volumes all day. The music Natalie Holt has created for Loki perfectly fits the crazy,

Ever since the first film Fast and The Furious released back in 2001, not only have these films have grown so much with action, thrill, and of course, racing, but they also have had so many soundtracks that compliment this amazing franchise. The latest film in the series, F9: The Fast Saga not only came through with a mind-blowing story, which includes the come back of some original crew members

Music Monday: “Permission to Dance” by BTS
In their follow-up to “Butter” (the official song of the summer–I don’t make the rules), BTS are as done as the rest of us with the worldwide events of the past 16 months, and they’re showing us in the best way possible: with a brand new song called “Permission to Dance.” Instead of describing it, just trust me on this–watch the video. It is a brilliant and fun addition to

Music Monday: ‘Luca’ (Original Score) by Dan Romer
Pixar’s Luca is Disney’s latest release, and with a new animated film comes an incredibly stunning original score composed by Dan Romer. The original score contains 30 new tracks and runs a little over an hour. Luca’s score feels so appropriate for the summer heat and unsurprisingly, touches on the Disney magic brilliantly. If you are anything like us and you play original scores, including park themes, all over the

Music Monday: ‘Long Lost’ by Lord Huron
Long Lost, Lord Huron’s latest album is here and it’s incredible. (But then again, I haven’t listened to a Lord Huron album I didn’t like.) Long Lost features 16 songs and most of them are glorious. Long Lost even features a 14:18 minute long instrumental titled: “Time’s Blur,” and if you know anything about me, you know that instrumentals are my jam. It’s what I currently have on replay while

Music Monday: ‘Our Flashback Wedding’ by Vitamin String Quartet
Vitamin String Quartet are back for our hearts, and we have 101 feelings about almost all the covers in the Our Flashback Wedding album. Oof. Imagine having this much talent. And the first cover we need to scream about is of Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game.” Since Vitamin String Quartet are featured in the official Bridgerton score, here is our official plea to have this cover featured in season two because

Music Monday: 0X1=LOVESONG (I Know I Love You) feat. Seori, from The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE – Tomorrow X Together (TXT)
After the poppy delight that was Blue Hour (along with their last mini album, minisode1: Blue Hour), the members of Tomorrow X Together (TXT) have released The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE—and believe me when I say the album is an entire jam with literally zero skips that gives the incredible talent of all five members ample room to shine both individually and as a unit. If you’re looking for an anthem

Music Monday: ‘Sour’ by Olivia Rodrigo
Since its debut, Olivia Rodrigo’s SOUR album has been the buzz online. We’re almost glad we didn’t write about “drivers license” when it first premiered as a single so we could finally talk about it now. SOUR by Olivia Rodrigo is stunning, vulnerable, and so raw as an album. Typically, here’s the tea about how I listen to music: I don’t like knowing things. Don’t tell me who the song

Music Monday: “Heat Waves” by Glass Animals
I’d like to start this off by formally apologizing to all my neighbors and my family because I’ve had three versions of this song circulating on replay for about three months now. Actually, never mind, I’m not sorry. You’re all welcome. You’d think I’d be sick of it by now, you’d think maybe after a week or two I’d think: “okay, that’s enough,” but nope, I’m still listening to it.

Music Monday: ‘Shadow and Bone’ (Original Score) by Joseph Trapanese and The Budapest Art Orchestra
Shadow and Bone’s original score is packed with a lot dig into. I wouldn’t know where to begin even if I was told where to begin. My one complaint, I wish parts of were split up and longer because I’ve got so many parts that are my favorite bits, I want to listen to those moments on a loop until the end of time. Shadow and Bone‘s original score is
