10 Songs For The Summer

Just because summer's almost over, doesn't mean you can't find new music.

10 Songs For The Summer

Even though it’s the end of July and there’s only a month left of summer, that doesn’t mean you should stop expanding your summer playlist. Those long, random car rides with friends require some sing-along jams, your last few trips to the beach deserve some songs to listen to while you soak up the sun, and who doesn’t like a good campfire tune with the s’mores you're making? So sit up, open up your music library and check out these songs for the rest of the summer.

1. “Favorite Liar” by The Wrecks

Who doesn’t love a good breakup song? Or at least a song where you can bang your head too and sing along with? With catchy guitars and smooth vocals, The Wrecks provide us with exactly what we need in a song.

2.“Bury It” by CHVRCHES feat. Hayley Williams

CHVRCHES has always made music that you can jam along to, but add Paramore’s Hayley Williams to the mix and you have a female powerhouse anthem. This song is perfect for when you’ve accomplished something or have finally forgotten and forgiven something of the past. You bury it and rise above.

3.“Crave” by Waterparks

The three piece pop-punk group can get your attention easily, especially with this song. Let’s face it -- we all have a soft spot for pop-punk, some more than others, and Waterpark’s “Crave” stratifies all needs.

4. “December (Again)” by Neck Deep feat. Mark Hoppus

After Neck Deep’s sophomore album made waves in 2015, “December” was an instant classic by the band. During the past few weeks, the band teased new releases of the fan favorite track, including a upbeat, fast-paced version of the song featuring blink-182 member Mark Hoppus. There are no words to describe the version of the song; you simply just have to listen to it.

5. “HEAR ME NOW” by 3OH!3

In junior high, I probably shouldn’t have listened to 3OH!3, but I couldn’t resist the catchy lyrics and insane beats. It’s almost like the duo went away for a few years and then came back with their new album “NIGHT SPORTS” out of nowhere. But I’m not complaining, because “HEAR ME NOW” is just a simple example of what the whole album is like. You might not want to blast this on the beach, though…

6. “Lane Boy” by Twenty One Pilots

This band has had some major radio airtime this summer, with songs like “Stressed Out” and “Ride," so I only found it fitting that I should introduce “Lane Boy” to new listeners. Similar to “Ride” (in my opinion), the song is still catchy, one that you would listen to during a late night drive. And let’s be honest, it’s another challenge to take on to learn all of the lyrics.

7. “Move Your Body” by Sia


Sia never disappoints when it comes to songs to dance to, and “Move Your Body” is exactly what one needs on a Friday night. Her whole “This Is Acting” album has major hits all around; I mean, who doesn’t love “Cheap Thrills?"

8. “The Sound” by The 1975

If you haven’t heard of The 1975, you’re probably living under a rock, and if you haven’t heard of their song “The Sound,” then I hope you just haven’t had the chance to pick up their sophomore album, “I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it." A bit more on the pop side of things than their normal rock/chic vibe, the song is still enjoyable, something that everyone can agree on.

9. “If You Ever Want To Be In Love” by James Bay

Okay, I’m being a little biased here, because I can’t help but be excited to see James Bay in the fall, but that doesn’t deny the fact that his music is amazing. Simply put, he’s a man with a guitar (and a very cool hat) who makes catchy music like “Hold Back The River” and “Let It Go,” to name a few.

10.“I Never Get Old” by Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats

If you like the sound of Houndmouth and even the new and improved Mumford & Sons, you’ll definitely like this band, where they first made waves with their song “S.O.B.,” which was blunt and honest to say the least. You can’t help but tap your foot along to this song and belt out the chorus.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
