MUSIC TO HEAR

Releases Including a band from our homeland, these are the best indie band songs of all time we think:

“Fluorescent Adolescent” Arctic Monkeys

“There Is A Light That Never Goes Out” The Smiths

“Hard to Explain” The Strokes

“Apocalypse Dream” Tame Impala

Here are a few tunes that truly make me cry:

MELANIE MARTINEZ

“You Belong To Me” Patsy Cline

“God Knows I Tried” Lana Del Rey

“Time Flies” Lykke Li

“Life in The Vivid Dream” Grimes

I don’t listen to music much when I’m sad, but here are songs that I think are sad but overall really good:

SLOW HOLLOWS Austin Feinstein (Vocals/Guitar)

“Pissing Against the Moon” Iceage

“Blue Bucket of Gold” Sufjan Stevens

“Old to Begin” Pavement

“The Mother Lode” Thom Yorke

Get ready to bite into TACOCAT’s third release as the Seattle-based surf punk quartet makes up for Lost Time this April Fool’s day—it ain’t a joke. Following up 2011’s NVM, the four best friends return to sing about hating on the weekend, the Internet, and plan A and plan B on their latest record.

After figuring out where the door led to last 2013, retro-soul revivalist MAYER HAWTHORNE goes back to his old ways to prove that he’s the Man About Town. With previously released tracks “Cosmic Love” and “Love Like That,” his latest album will take you back to the good ol’ days of R&B and soul.

Festival season ain’t over just yet! Set to make history on April 9 in Aseana City, gear up as Manila’s freshest talents play alongside headliners Austin Mahone, Rudimental, Afrojack, and Yeezy himself for the first ever Paradise International Music Festival.

Taking place on the third of April, make sure to tune into this year’s iHeart Music Awards as pop music’s finest acts pump themselves up for a memorable night with promised performances by Meghan Trainor, Fetty Wap, and Justin Bieber, among others.

They say that third time’s the charm, but things are bound to get bigger as Satchmi’s Vinyl Day returns for its fourth year this April 30. Finding a new home in UP Town Center at Katipunan, brace yourselves for whole day of good tunes and some crate diggin’ action.

THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS are making a huge comeback album—and it’s Everything You’ve Come to Expect. After several years of rumors and speculations, Miles Kane, Alex Turner, James Ford, and Zach Dawes reassemble to create a followup to their 2008 debut LP, The Age of Understatement.
