Omar Apollo’s Sleek ‘Spite’ and 5 More Cool New Pop Songs This Week
Cool new pop songs from Omar Apollo, Chappell Roan, Conan Gray and more.
Conan Gray’s new album Found Heaven kicks into gear when the pop star leaps into ‘80s synth-pop without abandon, and with its immediate keyboard maximalism, darkly suave vocal take and big-haired chorus, “Fainted Love” is the best of a very strong bunch. The pressure of trying to follow up an all-time smash like “Heat Waves” could crush certain artists, but luckily, Glass Animals don’t attempt to replicate impossible success on “Creatures in Heaven,” instead getting back to their bread-and-butter of studious, anthemic pop-rock. After breaking through at the top of the year with the viral hit “Home,” UK duo Good Neighbours keep the sunshine rolling into spring with “Keep It Up,” a charming shout-along piano-pop number that sounds like it’s about to be on alternative radio for months on end.
