The latest great track I found thanks to my Discovery playlist on Spotify. HAERTS released a new album last fall, both the result of and focused on losing their major label deal.

The Cranberries were working on a new album when Dolores O\u2019Riodon died early last year. This is the first track they\u2019ve released from those sessions. Let\u2019s be honest: it\u2019s fine enough but doesn\u2019t match up to their classic work.

These Swedish dudes keep cranking out excellent, massive tracks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWeird Ways\u201d &#8211; Strand of Oaks. Here it is, the first great song of 2019. Timothy Showalter is back, this time with most of My Morning Jacket serving as his backing band. Their presence comes through beautifully on this track. Musically you could drop this on about any MMJ album. They really work well together. I don\u2019t know if it is Showalter or Carl Broemel playing that solo in the middle, but it is beautiful and takes the song to another level. Jason Isbell and Emma Ruth Rundle will also appear on the album, which I am officially very excited for.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Jermaine Jackson - Dynamite\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wQad3_5Sc6Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cDynamite\u201d &#8211; Jermaine Jackson.
