1. Lorde, “White Teeth Teens”
First of all, Lorde has the dark, minimalist aesthetic that many Slytherins absolutely adore. Second of all, “White Teeth Teens” alludes to a story of a girl who aspires towards greatness, popularity, and reputation. Throughout, it upholds the ambition that Slytherins are known for and, dare I say it, elitism that the Slytherin house is reputed to endorse.
2. Walk The Moon, “Jenny”
If you liked “Shut Up And Dance” (and let’s face it, we all do), then “Jenny” will definitely make you want to tap your foot a little louder. Like the average Slytherin, “Jenny” bursts with energy and enthusiasm that are almost palpable.
3. Fall Out Boy, “Centuries”
Not only are Slytherins the fiercest snakes around, but they are also strong, clever warriors that will not stop until they get what they want. “Centuries” is the perfect battlecry for Slytherin, especially when Hogwarts is under attack and Slytherins need to help save the day.
4. Bastille, “Bad Blood”
It’s no secret that Slytherin has a dark reputation, but the house itself has made a tremendous effort to move past that. Sure, Slytherin has housed some of the darkest wizards history has to offer, but there are countless Slytherins within the house that have sought to remove such “bad blood” and better the Hogwarts environment.
5. Halsey, “New Americana”
Is Slytherin the American Dream personified? That’s up for you to decide. But, American history smells like ambition, determination, and dreams -- everyone wants to prove themselves. Slytherins achieve their goals, no matter how practical or idealistic, with style and swagger, just like Halsey in “New Americana.”
