Five Songs is a weekly series for paid Hearing Things subscribers in which we each choose a new song we like—or don't!—and write about why it has our attention.
This week, we've got a soundtrack for demonic hoedowns, a lyric we're still not convinced we're actually mishearing, an instant classic from the Cameron Winter of 2027(???) and more.
And we would be remiss not to mention that today, October 15, is the two-year anniversary of Hearing Things. If you're not a subscriber yet, think of signing up as a birthday gift for this toddler-aged, worker-owned, non-algorithmic, fully independent music site. Don't you want to see more of that kind of thing in the world? If so, then scratch what I said before—think of it as a gift for yourself.
Two years ago, we started a worker-owned music journalism publication to escape corporate media and blaze a new path forward. And we’re still at it. To celebrate our continued existence and faithful readers like you, we’re offering annual subscriptions at 30% off—that’s just $49 for full access to all of our reviews, features, podcasts, and more.
