Alex G, We’re All Going to the World’s Fair (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
One of the most anticipated projects of the year, Alex G's new album is a soundtrack for the upcoming horror film We're All Going To The World's Fair. The tracks we've heard so far, "Main Theme" and "End Song," have stayed firmly in the singer-songwriter's wheelhouse, which makes the collaboration even more intriguing. We can find out next week when the film itself hits theaters before streaming on HBO Max.

Jerry Paper, Free Time
Lucas Nathan's eighth solo studio project as Jerry Paper marks the return of their gently groovy, appealing louche indie-funk. "While Free Time is definitely NOT a concept album," Nathan says in a press release, "I did spend the whole period while making the record thinking about playfulness, curiosity, and their roles in the nature of creativity."
