Today, Hannah Jadagu is sharing a new official video for “Gimme Time,” a new pop ballad and standout from Describe, her forthcoming sophomore album out October 24th, 2025 worldwide through Sub Pop. The track was co-produced by Jadagu and Sora and mixed by Blue May in Los Angeles, and mastered by Heba Kadry in Brooklyn.
As for the ”Gimme Time” video, which was co-directed and edited by Jadagu and collaborator Sam Wilbert, it was filmed in and around the mountains around Estes Park, Colorado.

For these dates, she will open for The Japanese House in Woodstock, New York on September 28th, before heading out as direct support for Gigi Perez’s headlining US tour October 7th through 21st.

What People Have Said About Hannah Jadagu: “Like ‘My Love,’ Jadagu’s single from two months back, ‘Doing Now’ is phenomenal.” STEREOGUM
“New single ‘Doing Now’ is ace – potent and intentional, it finds Hannah wrapping her words around one of her best melodies to date.” CLASH
“A cozy, feel-good love song about wanting to be with the person you miss. Jadagu keeps it light and sweet here, with a bouncy beat and a soft undercurrent of longing.” [“My Love”] NYLON
“Hannah Jadagu’s “My Love” Is a Force of Nature” “Staff Pick,” EXCLAIM
“As an artist with a chameleon-like quality, shifting seamlessly from R&B to indie rock, Jadagu’s first preview of her new era is pure electro-pop. In “My Love,” she sings about a long-distance romance, craving to be with the person she’s enamored with and giving them all her time. It’s a song that you can imagine soundtracking a romantic moment in a teen TV show like Heartstopper, that captures the emotions of young love. “ “Best New Songs,” PASTE

Filmmaker, author, comedian, and cultural icon extraordinaire, John Waters, 79, returns with his second Christmas parody single (and third holiday single with Sub Pop), “John Waters covers ‘Little Cindy,’” produced again by his longtime friend and colleague, Grammy-winner, Ian Brennan (Tinariwen, Parchman Prison Project, The Good Ones [Rwanda], Ramblin’ Jack Elliott).
Waters says, “In the tradition of novelty records, which I’ve always loved, this year I pay tribute to one of my favorite hymns that was once included in my ‘John Waters Christmas’ album – sung by the ever-holy child vocalist Little Cindy. I have never been in drag professionally, but with this little sticks-and-stones gift record to bad children everywhere, I channel Little Cindy’s voice and aura, even stumbling over the exact words she did on the original 45rpm version. Little Cindy is beyond saintly in my opinion, a minor miracle, a human spiritual sacrament who brings her devoted sanctity to this psalm of southern sentimentality. For a few vinyl minutes, I hope listeners will agree: John Waters IS Little Cindy.
“Side B is beyond the valley of gimmicks, over the top of parody and underneath the mountain of linguistics, recorded in Pig Latin – a secret dialect my mother taught me in the ‘50s. I don’t take easily to learning a new language but this maddeningly ugly way of speaking is a tongue I eventually licked. I even used Pig Latin in ‘Pink Flamingos’ where Divine’s family skipped, happily chanting, ‘We Are The Filthiest People Alive.’ What better way to remind my public of this lunatic way of communication (even the Three Stooges spoke it in some of their 1930s movies) than to translate this beloved poem into a consonantly confused vernacular? ‘A Visit from St. Nick?’ As-tway E-thay Ight-nay Efore-bay Istmas-kray! See? I’m speaking in tongues! Want to clear your house of holiday party guests who have overstayed their welcome? Just play the flipside of this record, and they’ll run like they’ve just been teargassed! Ig-pay Atin-lay! Learn it, you little devils!” - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - On Friday, November 8th, Sub Pop will continue its expansion into the hot holiday single market with the release John Waters’ new Christmas parody single “John Waters Covers ‘Little Cindy’” b/w “A Pig Latin Visit From St. Nicholas,” available worldwide on 7” vinyl and on all streaming services. The single is available to preorder now.

“John Waters Covers ‘Little Cindy’” b/w “A Pig Latin Visit From St. Nicholas” is John Waters’ fourth single release overall for Sub Pop. It follows the 2024 release of “John Waters Covers ‘The Singing Dogs’ “Jingle Bells’” b/w “It’s a Punk Rock Christmas,” the 2022 release of “It’s In the Book” (which features Waters covering a stand-up routine recorded and made famous by midwestern-US comedian/actor/musician Johnny Standley in 1952), and his 2021 single, “Prayer to Pasolini” (his tribute to the legendarily controversial Italian film director Pier Paolo Pasolini). All of these wonderfully twisted releases are available from Sub Pop.

Today, Lael Neale is sharing the official video for the new song “Some Bright Morning,” which is available now on all streaming services worldwide from Sub Pop.
An outtake from this year’s critically acclaimed Altogether Stranger, “Some Bright Morning” is an uptempo burst of lo-fi rock n’ roll in the tradition of Loaded-era Velvet Underground (think “Train Comin’ Round the Bend”). The track is powered by a blown-out vintage drum machine and pairs Neale’s signature Omnichord with the driving rhythm guitar and explosive backwards soloing of her producer and accompanist, Guy Blakeslee. Neale’s radiant vocal shines throughout.
The song’s protagonist, like all of us, is searching for meaning and belonging in an increasingly polarized world, driving through civilization and filling up the gas tank yet again as world events take ever stranger turns. Neale’s poking fun at the “grass is always greener” mentality that results from the dominant gospel of salvation through consumerism, the marketplace of endless self-help products and techniques, a hamster wheel that’s always pulling us out of the present moment.
Describing the “Some Bright Morning” music video, in which she performs chores on her family’s farm, Neale says, “My dad is a farmer, and as I watch him working, day in and day out, I realize being an artist is very similar. Both are tending to work that is never done, in service of a broader life-long vision. There’s always more to do, new approaches to take, and leaps to make in the midst of mundane everyday tasks. You have to be motivated by a belief in what you are doing without attachment to the results. There’s a quiet satisfaction in the daily steps.”
Lael Neale’s fall tour in support of Altogether Stranger begins this Thursday, September 25th in Toronto at Wavelength at St. Anne’s and currently ends December 6th in London, UK at Ivy House. Please find a complete list of dates below.

What People Are Saying About Lael Neale’s Altogether Stranger: “With this album, Neale manages to translate existential torment into strange and beautiful sounds, yet again progressing with the chimerical vision of rock & roll that’s uniquely her own.” ★★★★ ½ All Music
“While oscillating between these conflicting states, Neale delivers her near-apocalyptic songs with eloquence and sangfroid. If Altogether Stranger is Neale bidding adieu to Los Angeles, then it is an unforgettable farewell.” 8/10, PopMatters
“…an artist who’s becoming something special” ★★★★MOJO

What People Are Saying About Nation of Language’s Dance Called Memory: “The real deal…” ★★★★ MOJO
“The band’s fourth LP and Sub Pop debut is danceable, eccentric, and immaculate at once…” ★★★★All Music “For Dance Called Memory, the trio — Devaney, his wife and right-hand synth wizard Aidan Noell, and bassist Alex MacKay — once more teamed with LCD Soundsystem/Holy Ghost! member Nick Millhiser as producer. Together, the crew pushed the edges of NOL’s sound, creating something expansive enough to capture the weight of grief and loss that coursed through these new songs.” Stereogum
“Dance Called Memory, continues its study of synth-pop from the late 1970s and early ’80s. The new record adds more guitars to the mix, tempering the machine-made with a human touch.” New York Times
“It’s a fuzzy electronic project that’s both introspective and danceable, with flanged New Order–styled guitar parts sprinkled in to give their sound a refreshed feel.” FLOOD
“An instantly appealing synthpop track, melodic and understated. It’s a grower.” [“Inept Apollo”] BROOKLYN VEGAN
“The New York trio capture the tension between the need for creative expression and its futility by offering some romantic, rejuvenating synth pop.” [“Inept Apollo”] “100 Best Songs of 2025 (So Far),” Consequence of Sound
“There is something instantly transportive about Ian Richard Devaney’s voice, which leaps with an operatic ease, yet maintains a soft-focus diaphanousness as it curls around lyrical transmissions just vague enough to feel applicable to any situation.” [“Inept Apollo”] “Staff Pick,” EXCLAIM!
“…shades of my bloody valentine adorn the guitars, while the jagged post-punk aspects are illuminated with Human League style synths.” [“I’m Not Ready for the Change”] CLASH
“’I’m Not Ready For the Change’ is imbued with some psychedelic pop accents reminiscent of Animal Collective and MGMT.” Consequence of Sound
“It’s a blinky synth track with a rickety drum-machine beat and a whole lot of dreamy effects on the vocals and guitars. I’d say it fills up a room quite pleasantly.” [“I’m Not Ready for the Change”] STEREOGUM
“Ian Devaney’s vocals wash over a minimalist soundscape of bright synthesizers and oscillating strings, the sparse textures shining a spotlight on his yearning.” [“Under the Water”] “Best New Songs” - PASTE
“Further emphasizing the malleability of their synthetic pop impulses, this track initially appears to be a slow saunter through the woozy landscapes of ‘80s pop before allowing a bristling dynamic energy to carry it along to its conclusion.” [“In Your Head”] Beats Per Minute

Clipping’s Dead Channel SkyPlus, the digital deluxe edition of the group’s Cyberpunk-inspired Hip-Hop project originally released earlier this year, is available today on all streaming services worldwide on Sub Pop.
Dead Channel Sky Plus expands and reorders the original 20-song sequence. The album is now 24 tracks long and includes the new songs “Night of Heaven (feat. Counterfeit Madison and Kid Koala),” “Forever War,” “Hard-Eyes,” and today’s offering, the official video “Mirrorshades, Pt. 1,” directed by Iddo Goldberg.
The new Max Headroom-inspired visual stars the group, with Daveed Diggs taking the lead as the titular character. Goldberg offers this, “It’s easy to shut the world out with our Mirrorshades. Maybe we should celebrate our similarities and not our differences. Through her vulnerabilities, LYRA discovers that she’s more like most of us than she thought she was.” Watch now.
Dead Channel SkyPlus was produced and mixed by Clipping and Steve Kaplan and mastered by Levi Seitz at Black Belt Mastering.
Clipping’s Dead Channel Sky is also available on CD/2xLP/DSPs from Sub Pop. LP purchases from megamart.subpop.com (US) and Mega Mart Europe (UK/EU), your local record store, and at Clipping’s live shows will receive the limited Loser edition vinyl on Emerald/Forest Green Ghostly Mashup (North America) and Neon Pink (UK/Europe). The Dead Channel Sky album art was created by Designers Republic.

What People Are Saying About Clipping’s Dead Channel Sky: “An epic masterpiece.” ★★★★ ½, DIY
“It’s simply a masterclass in vibrant, unique and breath-stealing hip-hop whose layers of complexity never stand in the way of its fun, vivid storytelling.” 9/10, CLASH
“Dead Channel Sky is clipping. at their most techno-shocked, reconnecting with the nexus of hip-hop and sci-fi fused by pioneers…” ★★★★ ALL MUSIC
“On their most immediate and vital album yet, the LA rap trio reimagine a cyberpunk-inspired present and future.” PASTE
“Named after the static-filled sky in William Gibson’s sci-fi novel Neuromancer, the album’s cyberpunk-inspired production - courtesy of Jonathan Snipes and William Hutson - imagines an alternate reality where a fusion of electro, Dutch hardcore, drum ‘n’ bass and industrial noise is the norm, while rapper Daveed Diggs explores abandoned pasts and doomed futures in his signature rapid-fire style.” CRACK
“This music here is less the atmospheric synthesizers of a Vangelis score and more the kind of neural buzz and ecstasy rush of the Crystal Method, the Chemical Brothers and the Prodigy soundtracking films like the mid-’90s inside-the-computer action of Hackers. However block-rockin’ their beats might be, clipping. aren’t excavating the past just for the sake of nostalgia.” 8/10, Exclaim
“The album is shot through with high-concept storytelling and industrial beats infused with glitchy electronic noises. Diggs’ propulsive rapping lends each song urgency, leading to an overall sound that can only be described as post-apocalyptic.” The AV Club
“The whole thing is a total head-trip.” BROOKLYN VEGAN
