WAREWOLF FM007 - WORLD CUP 🌎

Eight more, and this run went looking in the places you’d least expect to find one of these picks. Saudi Arabia, Iran, Cape Verde, none of them known for melodic indie, all of them on the radar now.

Thirty-two in. Sixteen to go. The frequency is live.

Ten nations in one day. That puts the radar exactly halfway home.

From Australia to Tunisia, with Japan, Sweden, Curaçao and the rest in between. The Curaçao pick’s a story by itself: the smallest country ever to reach a World Cup, and it turned up with its own homemade anthem.

Twenty-four in. Twenty-four to go. The frequency is live.

Six countries, and not one sounds like the next.

Qatar, Switzerland, Brazil, Morocco, Haiti, Scotland, all on the radar today. One track each, pulled from scenes that share nothing but a place on this list.

Fourteen in. Thirty-four to go. The frequency is live.

WAREWOLF FM007 - Day two on the radar.

Four more openers, four more tracks: Canada, Bosnia & Herzegovina, USA, and Paraguay. One song per nation, each a Warewolf pick first and a flag second, chosen by the same ear as everything else on this page. Sound on.

Eight nations in. Forty to go. The frequency is live.

WAREWOLF FM007 - 48 NATIONS (WORLD CUP EDITION)⚽️🏟️

48 nations. 48 tracks. One added every time a country plays its opening match.

FM007 turns the World Cup into a live radar: the underground, indie, and alternative from each country, not the export you already know. Group A is up. Sound on.

The frequency is live.

New Record Review. Paul McCartney, The Boys of Dungeon Lane 🐺🎸

Macca returns to Liverpool, and the first new record since we ranked his entire catalog lands at No. 8 in his solo career.

The voice isn’t what it was, but that’s the whole point. A record about memory, home, and family, with era-blending production that keeps it from sliding into nostalgia. The highs sit with anything he’s done in decades.

Maggie Miles “Placebo” review — Nashville alt-rock single + music video out now 🩹

Maggie returns and she’s dropped one of the grittiest, darkest thing she’s released to date. Grunge weight, late-90s & early 2000s nu-rock accents, and a vocal performance that lets you hear the story being lived in real time.

Not heartbreak. Someone looking back at the trajectory she was promised and realizing how much of it was a sugar pill. Maggie turns that into momentum, which is the harder move and the right one.
