Rubblebucket - Not Cut out for This

Your memory runs and I freeze
I sift through a cloud that will erase me
I got no heart, I got no soul
I'm only a shell to put your hands on

Rubblebucket is a unique conglomeration of instruments and influences coming together and spewing forth decidedly indie pop-rock from their base in Brooklyn. Badass not just because they can make modern, dance-y, alt rock with trombone, sax, and flute accompaniment, but also because the lead singer went through ovarian cancer treatment while they were on tour in 2014. (I bet that's where that year's album title, Survival Sounds, comes from). If U C My Enemies is the band's fifth EP (there have also been 3 full albulms).

Vanic feat. Maty Noyes - Too Soon

Gotta get myself out of this town
Cause we got a lot a history
And if I don't get away, I might drown
In a sea of haunting memories
Everybody wants to know what happened
Cause they thought that we were meant to be
And I'm sorry I don't have an answer
But people always asking me

Vancouver B.C. dance music creator Vanic is breaking his way into the mainstream with this one. (Okay, he already went viral with "Samurai" last year, but I feel like this is the track that's going to get on the regular FM stations, which I'm sure still matters because it's like free advertising = increased ticket sales, premium festival spots, and chances to produce with people like Selena Gomez or her ex bf = $$$$). Yes, you can count on me for the occasional injection of pure dance music onto TMIS. Have a fun Saturday night, y'all!

Japanese Breakfast - Everybody Wants to Love You

Can I get your number?
Can I get you into bed?
When we wake up in the morning
Will you give me lots of head?

Everybody wants to love you
Everybody wants to love you!

Will you lend me your toothbrush?
Will you make me breakfast in bed?
Ask me to get married
And then make me breakfast again!

Everybody wants to love you
Everybody wants to love you!

Lovely lo-fi synth pop solo project from Michelle Zauner (of indie rock band Little Big League though this is now much bigger), Japanese Breakfast's latest album, Psychopomp, is full of quick bites like "Everybody Wants to Love You", as well as soaring longer pieces that bookend the track list. Hope you enjoy the lyrics to this one through your post-Valentine hangover.
