Blast these new songs of summer - along with the air conditioning. Take a listen to the Best Songs of June, a playlist compiled in conjunction with our friends at Forthright Records.

See what songs made the list and what we had to say about them below:


​1) Small Reactions - “Sessions Street” - A blistering dose of post-punk adrenaline.

​2) Roman GianArthur - “Real Love, No Shade” - Beat the heat with this soulful R&B banger.

3) Graham Patrick Ulicny (of Reptar) - Tropical pop bent by explosive mind-bending syncopation.

4) Wieuca - “Snitches Get Stitches” - Dirty dance all night to this grungy, groovy track.

5) Chief Scout - “Dead End” - Sip on this guitar pop “cool aid” with a punch.

Barely awake Barely alive and well But oh well Miles away I pick up your smell From this hotel I'm just a coin That you tossed down a well Kiss and tell A wish who missed the mark And I just fell But oh well Now another era's over Another dead end in my life And I'm still young enough to make mistakes But too old to make them twice It's one for the money, two for the money The Third is on edge I'm afraid of everyone But I'm more afraid of losing them I'm afraid of everyone in this dead end Spoiled again Another wasted trip Bite your lip Nickel and dimed Another wasted rhyme and time In my prime If you get a taste Then you just crave success I guess I'll get to heaven if I get through hell Oh well I'm afraid of everyone But I'm more afraid of losing them drums: John Restivo trumpet: Tyler Jundt

6) Kinder Than Wolves - “Good Luck” - Dreamy, wistful indie perfect for your summer road trip playlist.
