The week's best new releases: Britney, Empire Of The Sun, Charlotte OC and more

New Music Friday britney

In this week's new releases, or at least the ones that have popped up on Spotify which at the time of writing doesn't include Carly Rae Jepsen's eight-track leftovers release:

  • Britney Spears has made up for wasting our time with all those releases from the last few weeks, ie a couple of pre-release wobbles aside 'Glory' is precisely the Britney album you want in 2016. 'Just Like Me' might be the best song but so, to be fair, might about five other tracks.
  • Other music has also been released this week but let's give Britney her time in the spotlight.

We didn't include 'Seasick Steve', apols.
