The latest from Muse, Phoebe Bridgers, Valley, Pete Yorn, Brooke Annibale

The latest tracks added to our New Music bin:

• Muse - Nightshift Superstar - A disco-tinged track from The Wow! Signal, which The Irish Times approvingly describes as "a glam odyssey that fuses metal, techno, science fiction and prog rock into an overstuffed inferno of absurdity."
• Phoebe Bridgers - Lost Boys - The first single from Lost Weekend, Bridgers' first album in six years.
• Valley - Vending Machine - The Toronto alt-pop trio says it's latest single is "a song about transactional relationships."
• Pete York - Idyllwild - From the upcoming album All The Beauty, this song's lyrics suggest making happy memories with one's child.
• Brooke Annibale - Make You Mine - We previously featured a couple of early singles, and now add this track from the just-released album, Bolder Font.

New by Icarus Phoenix, Temples, Paul McCartney, Broken Social Scene, Kiwi Jr.

The latest tracks added to our New Music bin:

• Icarus Phoenix - Oh, The Joy Of Life! - This Baltimore outfit is headed by singer-songwriter Drew Danburry. Their new EP, Gallop, "explores boundless optimism and joy all through a DIY lens," writes New Noise Magazine.
• Temples - Jet Stream Heart - Critics are calling this the best track on the English band's fifth album, Bliss, which otherwise is getting mixed reviews.
• Paul McCartney - Mountain Top - Amid the sweet nostalgia of The Boys of Dungeon Lane is this echo of late-Beatles psychedelia. McCartney says he wrote it about summer music festivals, "people going off for the weekend to trip out and get stoned."

• Bleachers - We Should Talk - Jack Antonoff says he wrote this song from everyone for ten minutes "about three different people that I have challenging communication with for different reasons."
• Brian Fallon and the Painkillers - Better Before - A co-write with singer-songwriter Donovan Woods about a relationship that left a bad taste.
