JUKEBOX 2026 – WEEK 7 – Five New Rad Tracks Added Twice A Week
Hello, music junkies.
Another batch of 5 new, stellar tracks are
added to Turn Up The Volume’s Jukebox.
All for your aural pleasure.
ALL TOGETHER
TRACK BY TRACK
Artist: KIM GORDON
Track: DIRTY TECH
New piece from her 3rd full-length in 6 years,
titled Play Me. It’ll drop on March 13th. More
info here.
“I was kind of musing about, is my next boss going to be an AI chatbot? We’re the first ones whose lights are going to go out — not the tech billionaires. It’s so abstract that people can’t comprehend.”
TUTV: Former Sonic Youth icon has found her niche as a solo artist. She experiments with synths, loops, overdubs, and other studio tricks, as she does also here again with this 2nd taster from the upcoming 3rd album, appropriately and sarcastically titled Dirty Tech.

Band: BLEACHERS
Who: The moniker of American multi-instrumentalist/singer-songwriter
Jack Antonoff, who worked under several other aliases and who composed
4 soundtracks, so far, too.
Track: YOU AND FOREVER
The first single from his forthcoming 5th longplayer, titled
Everyone For Ten Minutes, out 22nd May. More info here.
“An optimistic record that feels lovestruck and hopeful.”
TUTV: Bleachers always make me think a bit of Beirut and vice versa.
Both create relaxing atmospherics with multi-layered tunes, inventively
constructed, like Jack Antonoff shows here once more with this new
glorious pop symphony.

Esmé Hand-Halford (bassist/vocalist) about the song: “You could think of
something deeply human. But you could also answer it in a completely linguistic
sense and think of a tear as a symbol or an image.”
TUTV: Near-whispering vocals and musing thoughts about tears
surrounded by creaking guitars until the long acoustic outro.
