Bounce queen Big Freedia<\/a> is staying true to her New Orleans roots by bringing her rousing spirit straight to the pews. Named after her local Baptist church, Pressing Onward<\/em><\/a> fuses her high-energy bounce beats with gospel music to reignite her religious faith and desire to bring communities together. With refrains like, \u201cWe don\u2019t need a preacher just to go to church,\u201d and, \u201cDrive the enemy out\/Shake that submarine, Big Freedia uses her album to spread party-starting messages of love, acceptance, and perseverance rather than exclude fans based on their faith.<\/p>\n Listen on Apple Music<\/a> Everything you know about Anamanaguchi<\/a> has shifted on Anyway<\/em>, their third album and follow-up to 2019\u2019s [USA]<\/em><\/a>. The feel-good band turned from chiptune pop toward full-on fuzz rock, writing in a living room\u2013turned\u2013practice space and recording live to tape at Tarbox Road Studios, where Dave Fridmann produced the LP. Though Anamanaguchi\u2019s music has long summoned visions of late-night video game console parties and back-of-the-bus GameBoy sessions, the New York quartet now sounds closer to Ovlov or Angel Du$t playing a sweaty dive bar. Yet, as much as Anyway<\/em> is a pivot, it\u2019s still got the heart of Anamanaguchi\u2019s longtime sound, as heard on singles \u201cBuckwild\u201d or \u201cRage (Kitchen Sink).\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
