4 New Songs Out Today
So many artists, so many songs, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we’d call “indie,” and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. We update a playlist weekly of some of our current favorite tracks. Here’s a daily roundup with a bunch of interesting, newly released songs in one place.
BOLDY JAMES – “SINGLE FILE LINE”
Detroit rapper Boldy James continues to be insanely prolific. He already released one album this year with producer RichGains, Murder During Drug Traffic, and now he announced a second new album due later this month (January 24), Permanent Ink. Its first single is the chipmunk soul of “Single File Line.”

SPORTS TEAM – “BANG BANG BANG”
Sports Team’s new album Boys These Days is out in May, and they’ve shared another new track from it, which comments on gun culture and follows their experience getting robbed at gunpoint late in 2024. “We toured America a lot when we were working on the third album, and you would see the AR-15 logo used on coffee bags, hats, t-shirts, bumper stickers,” guitarist and lyricist Rob Knaggs says. “You’d stop for petrol, and alongside the snacks and neon drinks there’d be racks with tourist souvenirs; a Mickey Mouse hat, pet rocks, some postcard of a local landmark, then an AR-15 thermos cup. That’s where the seed of the lyrics came from. Seeing that silhouette used like it’s just any other American icon. Then across the time we spent in America I was fleshing the lyrics out. There was a story I saw about NRA robocalls after the Newtown shooting, and it’s horrific. The immediate PR damage control machine that clicks into action.” He adds, “I think what was most shocking was how resigned to it people seemed. You’re queuing for coffee. And then you’re trying to negotiate somebody waving a pistol around. The staff come and lock the doors, tell you to step away from the windows. You’re thinking about barricading yourself in the toilet and they’re still doing the squirty cream on the drinks.”
