New Music Spotlight: Boygenius – Satanist

New Music Spotlight: Boygenius – Satanist

The debut record of the supergroup Boygenius has finally arrived, along with a fearless new track called “Satanist” that demands your attention.

Boygenius, which consists of members Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, all shine together in “The Record”, their first full length LP since starting the group back in 2018. They’ve released a few songs in the months leading up to the release, such as “Emily I’m Sorry”, “True Blue” and “$20”. However, “Satanist” stands out as being one of the more rock oriented songs on this album. With all members trading vocals, this track features raw and emotional lyrics that explore themes of darkness and self-destruction. There are elements of punk, grunge and even metal, all while the group still manages to keep their distinctive sound and harmonies within the song. Overall, “Satanist” is an impressive addition to the Boygenius discography and fans will certainly appreciate their unique sound.

New Music Spotlight: Lizzy McAlpine – Ceilings

New Music Spotlight: Lizzy McAlpine – Ceilings

Lizzy McAlpine has officially broken the “Ceilings” with her new viral song. The 23 year old singer-songwriter has gotten a lot of attention lately on TikTok after many different videos were made using the sped up version of “Ceilings”, which was originally released last year in April. Actress Victoria Justice even got in on the trend and made her own “Ceilings” TikTok of her running down the street with an umbrella as the sped up version plays.

According to a Billboard interview, McAlpine has had plenty of practice, beginning to write songs on piano at age 12 and picking up the guitar a year or two later. She attended Berklee College of Music for two years — “a huge growing period for me as an artist and also as a human,” she says — before dropping out to pursue her career.
