“Sans” was a song I wrote in between Burn Your Fire and My Woman, something short and simple – but about a big thing in my life: travel and what it can do to the psyche. When you’re out there and you’re working and moving so fast it’s difficult to really imagine a time when you were fully realized and known. You know, it’s hard enough to be known when you’re around! But then there are those people in your life that know you and don’t need you around all the time to be or feel close-I suppose it’s about that too.

Sunflower Bean have released a new song called “I Was a Fool.” Listen below. It is their first single since signing onto Mom + Pop Music. “‘I Was A Fool’ is one of those songs that seemingly crept up from nowhere and into our practice space,” guitarist Nick Kivlen said in a statement. “I think this song is a good example of how we’ve grown as a band, while still staying true to the band that first played together back in high school.” The trio shared a prom-inspired video for the song which is available on Apple Music as well.

Mitski has written a review of Weezer’s most recent studio album Pacific Daydream for the Talkhouse. She looks into the band’s relationship with youth culture and compares Rivers Cuomo’s songwriting to the creative processes of David Lynch. She also calls the album “an honest representation of a middle-aged rock star.” “Weezer’s newest album has provided unexpected clues in an examination of my own writing, too, as I inevitably age and negotiate an ever-evolving self with an enduring idolatry of youth,” she wrote. Read the full thing here.
