Charly Bliss' New Album is a Perfect Summer PlaylistBy Ryan Brunt Summer is in full swing, so that means we’re in the middle of frantically restocking our playlists with the perfect music for the season. But luckily for us, Charly Bliss has heard our prayers for fun summery pop, and blessed us with their sophomore full length, Young Enough. Coming two years after the band’s full-length debut, this album represents a significant break from their earlier sound; On Young Enough, Charly Bliss polishes their debut’s grungier edges into 11 songs worth of beach-ready pop.

Reflections on Black Mirror's Fifth Season
By Joanna Patzig
Netflix’s hit series Black Mirror has always been tricky for me to navigate as a fan. Each episode explores technology and modern life in a new way, some of them veering closer to horror than others. For that reason, I’ve always preferred to watch them off of other peoples recommendations. But when Black Mirror released its fifth season I found myself drawn in before getting to the reviews. This time, I can recommend all of them.

Killing Eve Keeps Killing It
By Ryan Brunt
Everybody’s favorite globe-trotting game of cat and mouse-turned romance is back, and I’m just going to cut to the chase- the second season of Killing Eve is really good. It’s the kind of show that makes everything else look bad. As good as the first season was, the second season feels that much sharper; leads Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer bring some fresh new angles to their respective characters, the writer’s room is clearly firing on all cylinders, and the locations are even more beautiful and engaging. Long story short: watch Killing Eve at your earliest convenience.

New Sounds from an Old Flame
By Ryan Brunt
I shouldn’t have to tell anyone that Madonna is no stranger to experimentation. From her earliest days as the 80s premier pop firebrand to her more recent endeavors, Madonna has never been one to rely on old sounds or approaches. Her most recent album, Madame X, is no exception. It’s a brash, ambitious project practically overflowing with ideas. And although some of these ideas work better than others, Madonna still deserves praise for refusing to rest on her numerous and well-deserved laurels.

THE LIL NAS X DEBATE IS NOW A DUCK: A MODEST PROPOSAL OF ADVERTISING AND CONTENT CREATION
By Christopher Sloce
INTRODUCKTION
Let’s ring the necessary bells before we get started talking about Lil Nas X, Wrangler, culture wars, and avian waterfowl. Because of the nature of this article is a curious one, we need to lay out a few things before it gets possibly confusing. Everything you need to know is Lil Nas X is a teen with a knack for social media who recorded an absurdist rap-country song that grew popular through TikTok and memes. Just as the song was about to break through into a country music moment, it was ruled to not be country enough for the charts by Billboard. That’s when Billy Ray Cyrus saw an opportunity for relevance, recorded the remix, and created the jam of the summer. So in order to begin, let’s start with the question, which is simpler than anybody has made it. Is “Old Town Road” a country song? The Breadcrumbs widget will appear here on the published site.
