Something seems really familiar here in this edition of the SubModern Report. Could it be that the #1 album and #1 single are exactly the same as last week? That doesn't happen very often, but there wasn't a ton of new competition this week and it's hard to argue with The Cure and Tunde Adebimpe of TV On The Radio. I mean, it would be hard to argue with Songs Of A Lost World holding onto the top spot for the rest of the year after a decade and a half of no music from The Cure! As for Tunde, "Magnetic" is a killer jam to be sure and has me very excited for his debut solo record next year.

Let's see what's changed as we run down the rest of the top ten singles, starting with LCD Soundsystem's "X-Ray Eyes" and Moreish Idols' "Slouch" tied at #2. Then in a three-way tie at #4 are "Your House" by Inhaler, "Crocodile Tears" by Lauren Mayberry of CHVRCHES, and "Afterlife" by Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory. Momma stands alone at #7 with "Ohio All The Time" before a five-way tie closes things out. That features singles from Amyl and The Sniffers, Friedberg, Ora The Molecule, Shai Foxx, and Wishy.

Some of those same artists show up with top ten albums, like Amyl and The Sniffers, whose Cartoon Darkness is tied at #2 with Freak Slug's debut, I Blow Out Big Candles. Then Lauren Mayberry's forthcoming solo debut Vicious Creature is up to #4, followed by Friedberg's debut full-length, Hardcore Workout Queen, at #5. Congrats to Fontaines D.C. on their Grammy nominations, which have bumped Romance back into the top ten at #6, where it's tied with The Night The Zombie Came from Pixies. Finally at #8, there's a big six-way tie, including albums from Circa Waves, King Stingray, Latvian Radio, Peter Perrett, St. Vincent (who also gets a Grammy bump), and Talking Heads with the new Super Deluxe edition of their eponymous 77 classic.
