by Allison Stubblebine

Every weekend, we bring you#SOUNDCHECK—your destination for the best of the best new music that hit the web over the course of the week. Because you should always be prepared when someone passes you that AUX cord. This week's roundup features 15 of our favorite emerging and established artists including Kim Gordon, Bishop Briggs, and so many more. Turn up, tune in, and tune out.

No Home Record - Kim Gordon

This record feels too hip for me to even listen to (but of course I'm doing it anyway).

"JEKYLL & HIDE" - Bishop Briggs

The new creepy-cool anthem for calling out fuckbois.

"Lo Lo" - Destiny Rogers ft. P-Lo and Guapdad 4000

Destiny Rogers is the new "It" girl of alt-R&B.

"Tokyo/Sucker Punch" - Julien Baker

Forever turning me into a puddle of mush with her lyricism.

"Find an Island" - BENEE

I'm heading to whatever island she winds up on after this track.

"Senses" - Taylor Belle

Come to your senses and start stanning this up-and-comer.

"Comfortable" - AWA

Turn the volume up on this and pour a glass of wine before you slip into the weekend.

"Outside" - Hana Vu

Actual footage of me and my depression when someone suggests going outdoors.

"Puppets" - Pusha T

I'd be lying if I said I haven't been listening to this on a loop all day.

"home with you" - FKA twigs

Get lost on a hazy night out with twigs in this new video.

Probably Crying - Girl Wilde

The title of this EP is also the title of my future memoir.

Head in the Clouds II - 88rising

Wish I had "Walking" earlier to dance to all summer long.

"Your Boyfriend's Gun/Autumn Sweater" - Palehound

Someone please go on a last-minute road trip with me for the sole purpose of playing this as I stare longingly out the window.

"Dancing In The Dark" - Lucy Dacus

I had no idea I needed Lucy Dacus to cover Phil Collins until this very moment.

"Run For Your Life" - Tiffany Young

This better be playing at the club this weekend.
