With so much good music being released all the time, it can be hard to determine what to listen to first. Every week, Pitchfork offers a run-down of significant new releases available on streaming services. This week\u2019s batch includes new albums from Charli XCX, the Strokes, Tyla, and more.

If you’re Charli XCX<\/a>, by unloading your notes app, voice memos, and thorniest garage-rock demos into an unruly, invigorating collection that serves as a stan purge and a creative state-of-the-union all at once. Music, Fashion, Film<\/em><\/a> laces a series of crunchy, distinctly 2000s guitar lines with first-thought-best-thought lyrics about making art and grappling with artifice. It\u2019s both a love letter to current collaborators like A.G. Cook, who finally gets an ode of his own here, and inspirations across mediums. One of the album\u2019s most profound moments arrives via director David Cronenberg, who muses on change and permanence in his gravelly tenor. Music, Fashion, Film<\/em> is a definite left-turn from the pop provocateur\u2019s recent work, but its earnest blend of cheek and vulnerability is Charli through and through.<\/p>\n Listen on Apple Music<\/a>Charli XCX: Music, Fashion, Film<\/em> [Atlantic]<\/h2>\n
