The best singles of the week

Pearl Jam – "Dark Matter"

Pearl Jam's twelfth studio album will be titled "Dark Matter". Produced at Shangri-La Studios in Malibu by Andrew Watt, the record will be released via Monkeywrench Records/Republic Records on April 19, four years after its predecessor "Gigaton". The first single is also the album's title track, and you can listen to it below:

Beyoncé – "16 Carriages"/"Texas Hold'em"

American popstar Beyoncé made a surprise appearance in a Verizon ad during the Super Bowl and announced the release of two tracks, previewing her new country-flavored project. The two new songs, titled "Texas Hold 'Em" and "16 Carriages", chase the suggestions of country tradition in different ways, blending them—especially in the latter case—with more contemporary sounds.

After recent tours on some of the world's biggest stages with Skrillex and Fred Again..., Four Tet has announced his long-awaited solo album: "Three" will be released on March 15 via Text, the independent label founded by Kieran Hebden in 2001. In recent months, the British DJ has released the first two singles "Loved" and "Three Drums", and now here's the third preview track, "Daydream Repeat".

Waxahatchee – "Bored"

Waxahatchee is back with a new single titled "Bored", taken from the upcoming album "Tigers Blood" out March 22, accompanied by a music video directed by Corbett Jones and Nick Simonite: in the clip, singer-songwriter Katie Crutchfield plays the song on a bar stage and sings while riding a three-wheeled motorcycle.

Dua Lipa – "Training Season"

Following the release of the first single "Houdini" a month ago, Dua Lipa gives us a second preview of the new album, the follow-up to "Future Nostalgia", due out this year. "I'd been on a string of bad dates," the artist says of the track, "and the last one was the final straw. While on one hand it's obviously that feeling you get when you're tired of telling people... men in particular in this case... how to treat you, on the other hand it's also about the fact that training season is over and I've grown up. I've never felt so sure of myself, clear-headed and strong."

Jessica Pratt – "Life Is"

US singer-songwriter Jessica Pratt reveals the details of her first record in over 5 years. "Here In The Pitch" is set to arrive on May 3rd via Mexican Summer, preceded by the single "Life Is". Below is the video for the first single "Life Is", co-directed by the artist together with Colby Droscher.

Warpaint – "Common Blue"

Warpaint are back with new material: to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the band's founding, the Los Angeles outfit have announced a new 7" vinyl, out via Rough Trade Records, featuring two tracks titled "Common Blue" and "Underneath". This week the Californians shared "Common Blue", accompanied by a video directed by Robin Laananen.
