It's been really rainy around SubModern Report HQ this week. Pretty darn dreary. Hopefully less so wherever you are. Congrats to our new #1's this week. On the singles chart, Indigo de Souza's excellent new single "Heartthrob", which debuted last week at #2, has ticked up a notch to the top spot, though oddly with one spin less than it had last week. I suppose the spins are more spread out overall this week. On the album chart, it's an upcoming tribute compilation, ANTHEMS: A Celebration Of Broken Social Scene's You Forgot It In People, that finds its way to #1 with two new cover tracks released by Toro y Moi and Miya Folick & Hand Habits, in addition to the first single by Maggie Rogers & Sylvan Esso. Looking forward to the full album coming on June 6th.

It's ties all the way down the rest of the top ten singles. With last week's #2 single moving up to #1, last week's #1, "Metal" by The Beths, has dropped down to #2, where it's tied with a new track called "Moody" from Aussie faves and the most played SubModern artist of 2024, Royel Otis. The next tie at #4 is between "Everything You Do" by The Happy Fits and "Inland Ocean" by Matt Berninger of The National. Child Seat's "Hyperphantasia" is tied at #6 with "Permanently Broken" by King Isis, and "Psychosis Is Just A Number" by Guerilla Toss is tied at #8 with Parcels' "Yougotmefeeling". Finally, there's a four-way tie at #10, featuring Dope Lemon with "Electric Green Lambo", Lifeguard with "Under Your Reach", Windser with "These Days", and from the aforementioned B.S.S. tribute, Toro Y Moi's version of "Stars And Sons".

Coming in just behind that tribute comp on the album chart is the aforementioned Matt Berninger's upcoming solo album Get Sunk at #2, and a tie at #3 between brand new records from Dope Lemon (Golden Wolf) and The Kooks (Never/Know). The first single from Boy Deluxe's From Black Sheep To Icon EP debuted just last week, and with a second single dropping only a week later, the EP shows up at #5 this week. Then there's a three-way tie at #6 including last week's #1 album, The Scholars from Car Seat Headrest, as well as Lifeguard's just-announced Ripped and Torn and Mclusky's first album in two decades, The World Is Still Here And So Are We. Closing out the top ten here is a four-way tie at #9, featuring Tall Tales from Mark Pritchard & Thom Yorke, The New Eve Is Rising from The New Eves, Instant Holograms on Metal Film from Stereolab, and Windser's self-titled debut album that releases this Friday.
