Tunng released a new album, Songs You Make At Night, today via Full Time Hobby. It’s the first album with the original lineup (including founding members Sam Genders and Mike Lindsay) since 2007’s Good Arrows.

Plus Metric, Joey Dosik, Underworld & Iggy Pop, Still Corners, and a Wrap-up of the Week's Other Notable New Tracks

There was a trend this week for artists to share two songs at once, rather than just one. We saw it with Blood Orange, Trevor Powers, Elvis Costello, Jungle, Cornershop, and Fucked Up (and Pussy Riot released three songs this week).

Inside Voice Due Out August 24 via Secretly Canadian

Previously he shared a video for its title track, “Inside Voice” (which was one of our Songs of the Week). Now he has shared another song from the album, “Don’t Want It To Be Over,” via a video. The song features Coco O. (of Quadron) and sounds like a classic Motown duet. Tim Hendrix directed the delightful video, which feels like a retro musical, as dancers JJ Rabone (a former So You Think You Can Dance contestant) and Hunter Krikac romance each other in a living room.

There were some solid contenders for this week’s Songs of the Week list. It was a toss up between #1 and #2, it could’ve gone either way. If we were doing a “Best Use of a Song in a TV Show This Week” list, then first place probably would’ve gone to the use of U2’s “With or Without You” in the surprising and amazing series finale of FX’s The Americans.

With one foot planted in modern pop songwriting messages, and one foot firmly set in the stylings of a retro era, Joey Dosik glides between the old and the new in remarkable fashion. More
