Ahead of the highly anticipated release of her fifth studio album, Crash, English artist Charli XCX dropped the titillating single “Baby” on 1 March as a treat to her fans.

Some of the singles featured in the experimental-pop and sultry-themed music album released in 2021, namely, “Good Ones”, “New Shapes”, featuring Caroline Polachek and Christine and the Queens and “Beg For You.”

“Baby,” which was released in March 2022, is the latest addition to the list of promotional singles included in the upcoming album.

Crash, however, was delayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, the entire studio album will be officially released on 18 March under the label Atlantic Records.

Nightclub Daydreaming by Ed Schrader’s Music Beat

The American two-piece rock band, comprising cool kids Ed Schrader and Devlin Rice, will release Nightclub Daydreaming via Carpark Records. The album comes four years after their Dan Deacon-produced album, Riddles.

Due to the untimely death of their drummer, Kevin O’Meara, in October 2020, with whom they were creating and testing the tracks of their music album ahead of its release, the posthumous album will definitely carry a tinge of nostalgia and raw emotions.

Imbuing the theme of “mad euphoria in the face of doom”, as described by Schrader, Nightclub Daydreaming includes 10 achingly beautiful, dark and melancholic music tracks, of which the album’s lead singles, “This Thirst” and “Berliner,” were dropped in January 2022. Another soulful track, “Echo Base,” was released in February.

The full album will be released on 25 March 2022.

Higher by Michael Bublé

The Canadian singer and multi-Grammy winner’s upcoming release of his 11th studio album, Higher, is slated for 25 March.

The tracks in Higher will be an ode to romantic and nostalgic classics, featuring a combination of original and cover songs, which are already on their way to becoming foot-tapping earworms.

The new music releases of the Reprise Records-produced album will include melodious renditions of Bob Dylan‘s “Make You Feel My Love” and Sam Cooke’s “Bring It On Home To Me”, along with original songs. It also features bonus collaborations with musical legends like Willie Nelson and Paul McCartney.

Michael Bublé released a new single “I’ll Never Not Love You” in February 2022, along with its official music video on YouTube, creatively referencing and paying tribute to Hollywood classic movies such as Titanic (1997), Casablanca (1942), The Notebook (2004) and Love Actually (2003), among others.

Impera by Ghost

Now this one’s a treat to all hardcore metalheads. Swedish rock band Ghost will release their new album, Impera, on 11 March under the label of Gibson Records.

Earlier this year, the band released their dark new single “Call Me Little Sunshine” on YouTube, offering a glimpse into the sinister and grunge aesthetics of their new music album.

Set against a mysterious, mesmerising, dark and ominous 19th-century European backdrop, the Ghost song delivers perfect guitar riffs, gloomy melodies and classic rock beats, predisposing the 12-track Impera for a successful release.

容 : FACE by Solar (MAMAMOO)

On 16 March, the upcoming album will be released nearly two years after her banging debut song “Spit it Out”.

Mainstream Sellout by Machine Gun Kelly

American musician Machine Gun Kelly will release his sixth studio album, Mainstream Sellout, under the label Bad Boy/Interscope on 25 March. Previously titled Born With Horns, the album is produced by popular rock band Blink-182’s Travis Barker.
