Growing up in a world of Katy Perry and The Pussycat Dolls, my childhood self is in disbelief that club music has taken over the top charts and become the new pop music.

It appears that Sept. 6 was a great day in music history. Music fans got a new punk album and two alternative-indie albums from some pretty iconic artists, all within the span of 24 hours. So whether you want to listen to these select songs or binge the entire albums like I did, you’re in for a treat this Tunesday.

Maybe it’s the album’s raunchy, unabashedly shallow and fun aesthetic that propelled its lead singles to TikTok “For-You Pages” everywhere. Maybe it’s his involvement in the all-consuming “Brat Summer” of 2024. Maybe it’s his “extremely British” looks, as The Guardian quips, that makes his music so much like Troye Sivan wearing a Blur costume. Or maybe I’m just chronically online.
