Wolf Alice – Just Two Girls (Official Lyric Video)

Wolf Alice, the British alternative rock band that has secured a firm place in the modern rock scene—winning the 2018 Mercury Prize for their second album, “Visions of a Life”—are set to release their fourth album, “The Clearing,” in August 2025.

One of its central tracks seems to brim with a heartwarming charm that differs from their grunge-leaning side.

Vocalist Ellie Rowsell has said the song was inspired by a meal she shared with a friend, and its theme centers on the comforting feeling of sorting out one’s thoughts through intimate conversation.

Its breezy soft-rock sound, driven by piano and drums, carries a calm, gentle atmosphere—like a leisurely afternoon spent with a friend.

It’s a tender, affectionate sound that makes you appreciate the simple joys of everyday life.

A$AP Rocky – Both Eyes Closed (From “Highest 2 Lowest”) (Audio)

Let me introduce a track by A$AP Rocky, created as part of the soundtrack for director Spike Lee’s film “Highest 2 Lowest.” Rocky himself appears in the film as a member of a gang, and this introspective song vividly reflects the turmoil of his character.

The sound—a viscous, psychedelic rock-like guitar intertwined with chopped-up vocals—exudes Rocky’s signature dreamlike aesthetic, and I’m sure many will find themselves addicted to its distinctive atmosphere.

The lyrics, packed with sharp social commentary and human struggle, are a must-hear for fans.

It’s a deep, resonant track that heightens anticipation for his first new project since the 2018 masterpiece “Testing.”

Over an uptempo beat crafted by UK producer Kelvin Krash, Rocky delivers raps that embody the aggression of the villain he portrays.

The lyrics contain a scathing message seemingly aimed at a former ally, drawing you in with his signature sharp edge.

It’s a dope track where his actor and rapper personas fuse seamlessly—definitely worth a listen.
