Throwback Thursday | 2080 - Yeasayer
Yeasayer’s debut album, All Hour Cymbals, came out 9 years ago in 2007. Listen to this rhythmic song off that first album and then be sure to check out their brand new album, Amen & Goodbye, which just came out last week!
Weekly Cover | Oh Wonder Cover Beyoncé’s “Crazy In Love”
Oh Wonder, who released their self-titled debut last year, stopped by the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge to cover Beyoncé’s “Crazy In Love” and perform their song “Without You.” Oh Wonder are currently touring and will play First Avenue in Minneapolis on June 3rd with support from LANY (who recently stopped by First Ave with Troye Sivan).
Listen to Beyoncé’s remix of “Crazy In Love” that arguably inspired Oh Wonder’s take more than the upbeat original.
Weekly Remix | Youth - Troye Sivan (Son Lux Remix)
Barrier Junkies favorite Son Lux remixed another favorite, Troye Sivan! Troye’s current single “Youth” has gotten a number of remixes lately including one from Gryffin and one from Shift K3y.

Listen to Broods’ new song, “Free!” The New Zealand brother sister duo released their debut album, Evergreen, in 2014. They spoke to FasterLouder about their new album and what it was like moving to LA to pursue the process. The new album is expected sometime later this year!

Rihanna’s ANTI is our favorite release for the year thus far. Check out the new music video for one of our favorite tracks off the album, “Kiss It Better.” Rihanna was intended to perform the song at The GRAMMYs, but cancelled last-minute citing health.
Weekly Cover | Tame Impala Cover Kylie Minogue’s “Confide In Me”
A couple months ago, Tame Impala stopped by Australia’s triple-J Radio and performed “The Less I Know The Better” off their 2015 album, Currents. They also performed this cover of Kylie Minogue’s dreamy “Confide In Me.” Listen to the original below!
Tame Impala are currently on their world tour stopping back in the states for a few festivals this summer, including Bonnaroo.
Gold | Kiiara
Watch the new music video for Kiiara’s jamming, viral hit, “Gold.” It hit SoundCloud nine months ago and has already earned her enough attention for a booking at her festival debut this summer, Lollapalooza Chicago, and it’s been used for an Apple Watch commercial.
Before Lollapalooza, Kiiara is hitting the road with Aluna George.

HAIM posted a short video to their Instagram and other social media accounts showing them playing new music in the studio, discussing their desire to break out and hit the road with “these new songs.” Most of the summer dates are festival appearances, so keep your eyes and ears peeled for a new album and a fall tour!

Listen to their show-closing power song, “Let Me Go,” from their 2013 debut album Days Are Gone below!
Cheap Thrills | Sia
Sia released a music video for her growing hit single “Cheap Thrills,” my favorite off her new album This Is Acting, which is a collection of rejected pop songs Sia wrote for other artists. Rather than her talent and hard work go to waste, she used the songs as a sort of commentary on the fact that there is in fact another side to songwriting that doesn’t get the recognition of the performances themselves. In this album, Sia is literally acting, singing songs that were not her own story, songs that were intended for another album. The album still works as a hole in style and sound, but does lack the emotional connection and impact of her huge breakout record from 2014, 1000 Forms Of Fear, the success of which makes this new album, and it’s message, possible.
The music video is a reenactment of their performance on Jimmy Fallon, American Idol, and other television appearances featuring Sia’s brand star and muse, Maddie Ziegler. The filming and lighting is spectacular.
Song Of The Week | LIKE I WOULD - ZAYN
Zayn Malik’s first solo album, Mind Of Mine, came out on Friday and he stopped by Jimmy Fallon’s show to perform one of his newest singles off the album, and one of our early favorites to jam to, “LIKE I WOULD.” Listen to the recorded version on Spotify here and purchase the entire album here!
Desire | Years & Years feat. Tove Lo
Watch the unapologetically sexually well-rounded and accepting new music video for Years & Years’ “Desire,” a new single version, featuring the Swedish pop star and fellow Barrier Junkies 2015 breakout artist, Tove Lo!
Years & Years join Ellie Goulding for part of her North American tour this spring/summer!

New Music Friday | February 26th, 2016
Centerfold - MOTHXR
This smooth-jazz, whispery, electronic-dance 90s-2000s throwback debut comes from the Brooklyn, New York based quartet of cool and creative dudes that aren’t afraid to make something a little different. It actually reminds me a lot of some of the Australian indie-alternative pop(?) that was being made in 2010-2012, like Electric Guest, and yet, it really is it’s own thing. You just have to listen and enjoy it. Don’t miss “She Can’t Tell,” but listen to “Easy” below!

I Like It When You Sleep For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware Of It - The 1975
Tackling the Sophomore Release Critics Challenge with a wide variety and a lot of new sounds, The 1975′s newest work will engage old fans, challenge some, while also reaching some new. Following a huge debut is one of the most thankless challenges of the music industry, you can either change or stay the same, and either way, you’ve upset someone. I think The 1975 have found a good balance, and for anyone that doesn’t like it, they made their “The Sound” music video just for you! Listen to “Somebody Else” below.

Keep It Together - Lily & Madeleine
A more pulsing and movement-orientated release for this Americana-Folk duo of sisters from Indianapolis, Keep It Together expands the horizons of the band by pushing their boundaries into new sounds and rhythms. Listen to “Midwest Kid” below, it was a song we could relate to, geographically.

Other Notable Releases:
99 Cents - Santigold
This Unruly Mess I’ve Made - Macklemore + Ryan Lewis
HXLT - HXLT
How | Daughter (Official Music Video)
Watch the beautifully shot, written, and acted music video for Daughter’s “How” from their new album, Not To Disappear, which released last month. The music video, to me, is about letting yourself go, freeing yourself, and the fear of doing so. The video stars Marama Corlett.
Add Not To Disappear to your collection physically here or iTunes and follow 4AD and Glassnote Records on Tumblr for updates on all their artists’ works.
