New to the Coup De Main TRUE JAMS playlist this week for you is:

alt-J have just announced that they will be releasing their eagerly awaited fourth studio album titled 'The Dream' which is set to release early next year on February 11th, 2022.

Alongside the announcement, they have also dropped the first single 'U&ME' which is their first new music since 2017.

On the meaning of the song, the band's Gus Unger-Hamilton says: “It’s about being at a festival with your best friends, having a good time, togetherness, and the feeling in life that nothing could be any better than it is right now."

Ahead of his Tourever 2021 kicking off this week (and spooky season soon), Role Model has today shared a new song, 'Death Wish', in which he attempts to psychoanalyse a femme fatale.

About the song, Role Model shares: "The entire song came from the chords. It immediately felt super sinister and evil, but sexual at the same time. I wanted to create this intimidating, powerful, female character to represent that desire we have for things we know aren't good for us."
