Katy Perry’s latest musical comeback has hit a snag as her new single “Woman’s World” bombed on the charts and with critics. The track, released on July 11 as the lead single from Perry’s upcoming seventh studio album 143, entered the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at number 63 and the U.K. Singles Chart at number 47. These positions fall short of expectations for the multi-platinum artist, known for her string of chart-topping hits.

Philly emo-punks Brackish will follow their 2022 self-titled album with a new EP, Rear View, on September 27 via self-release. The band made it at NJ’s Landmine Studios with drummer Zach Miller and Tim Fitzpatrick engineering and producing, and first single “Lay Down” finds the band dishing out a big, soaring emo-pop song that would fit nicely next to anything from The Early November (whose Ace Enders worked on their last album) to newer torch-carriers like Arm’s Length.

Yasmin Williams has announced that she’ll follow 2021’s excellent Urban Driftwood with a new album, Acadia, on October 4 via Nonesuch (pre-order). She says:. I’m so proud to finally present Acadia to y’all. It’s my most sonically expansive work to date and features an array of accomplished musicians and friends including Immanuel Wilkins on saxophone, Aoife O’Donovan and Darlingside on vocals, Marcus Gilmore on drums, Kaki King and William Tyler on guitar, Dom Flemons on bones, and more artists who played phenomenally. I played several instruments on the album, including, but not limited to, many kinds of guitars, calabash drum, kora, and banjo. The sonic world of the album ranges from classically minded folk music to full rock with jazz influences and everything in between.

Martin Phillipps, frontman for New Zealand indie legends The Chills, died unexpectedly over the weekend and tributes have been pouring in since. Flying Nun Records, who released all the classic Chills records of the ’80s and early-’90s, wrote: “Martin and his band, the Chills, were an integral part of the 1980s Dunedin scene and of the bigger Flying Nun Records family. Martin was a single-minded talent who took all components of a musical career seriously: song writing, performance and in the studio. Demanding of perfection in others and himself, songs such as ‘Rolling Moon’, ‘Pink Frost’, ‘I Love My Leather Jacket’ and ‘Heavenly Pop Hit’ were increasingly commercially successful and helped define the best of New Zealand music in the 1980s. This last song and its album, Submarine Bells, almost broke the band internationally. After a pause, he then pulled himself up to reinvigorate the Chills and his career in the mid 2010s. With a stable unchanging band line up Martin once again was producing fine new albums and undertaking extensive New Zealand and international tours. Gone too soon, he will be greatly missed.”

Former Girls singer/guitarist Christopher Owens is back with his first new music in seven years. Set against a shimmering mix of acoustic and electric guitars, “I Think About Heaven” is sunny and optimistic, with Owens singing “I think about heaven and I smile / Things don’t seem so bad.” He was born and raised into a devout Christian family and that has colored his songwriting from the beginning but is front and center here. It’s a very immediately likable song, all six minutes of it, and you can listen below.

Denver punks Public Opinion have announced that they’ll follow a string of great singles and EPs with their first full-length album, Painted On Smile, due September 6 via Convulse Records (pre-order). It was co-produced by past-collaborators Ian Shelton (of Militarie Gun) and Taylor Young (of Twitching Tongues and God’s Hate and producer for tons of bands, including Militarie Gun), and vocalist Kevin Hart says, “We really wanted to try and expand the sound of the band more. That early 2000s stuff like The Strokes, The Hives, and Bloc Party was really important to us when we were kids, and I think this time we let a lot more of that infiltrate into what we were doing, and we ended up stumbling on more of our own sound.”
