Candle Cove Singles Chart: 10/18/19

1. Wolf Parade - Against The Day
Wolf Parade are back once again after a triumphant return in 2017 with a new record and a lead single that is sure to be an overlooked and underrated moment in indie music this year.

2. Perfume Genius - Pop Song
After dropping the second highest charting and first longest charting song of the year with his first single of 2019 Eye In The Wall Perfume Genius could be set up with even more success along one of the most creatively dominant periods of his ever evolving career.

3. Ghetto Sage - Haagen Dazs
The debut single from long time collaborators but first time super groups Ghetto Sage, consisting of Chicago MCs Saba, Noname and Smino, has been a long awaited affair and fans of conscious rap from across the creative spectrum have flocked to see what the three talented rappers can pull off together.

4. Katy Perry - Harleys In Hawaii
After two surprisingly good singles began Katy Perry's 2019 she looks to do it again with a summer song aimed at a cold October audience with Harleys In Hawaii.

5. Beck - Hyperlife
After releasing one of the more forgettable albums of his career two years ago with Colors and releasing the strange Saw Lightning single earlier this year Beck came out of nowhere to drop two new tracks and announce his next project dropping in November.

6. Beach Slang - Bam Rang Rang
After taking 2018 to explore Quiet Slang the band is back to their true punk form and have a new record on the way that will aim to pick up where 2016's A Loud Bash Of Teenage Feelings left off.

7. Have A Nice Life - Science Beat
Despite having one of the most legendary experimental rock albums of all time under their belt, as well as a critically acclaimed follow-up record, Have A Nice Life hasn't really gotten their footing yet in the lead up to their third record and the verdict is still out on if the band will be able to assemble another classic.

8. Rex Orange County - Pluto Projector
The king of breezy, catchy and poorly sung indie pop returns after dropping a surprisingly decent single earlier this year in New House to once again try and assemble a Tik Tok caliber song.

9. Free Nationals - Lights Up (Feat. Chronixx)
The Free Nationals continue their ongoing collaborations series by linking up with Reggae's youthful voice Chronixx.

10. Harry Styles - Lights Up (Week #2, Down From #1)
Harry Styles does it again with another sharp and captivating lead single this time around taking a shorter and poppier approach than on his brilliant Sign Of The Times just two years ago.

11. Hemlock Ernst/Kenny Segal - Addicted Youth (Week #2, Down From #6)
Hemolck is back with a second great single making for his upcoming record to be a sleeper to look out for in one of the most stacked release weekends in years next week.

12. Panda Bear - Playing The Long Game (Week #2, Down From #2)
Panda Bear ops for a much more banging approach on his most recent single than on his record earlier this year and while it is different, Noah clearly has something to offer to the sound.

13. Caribou - Home (Week #2, Down From #3)
Caribou is back after a long 5 year absence from music under the name and fans and critics alike seem pretty satisfied with what it's returned with.

14. FKA Twigs - Home With You (Week #2, Down From #4)
FKA Twigs has one of the most highly anticipated releases of the year now just one week away and snuck in one last single to build up hype for the project with Home With You.

15. Pusha T - Puppets (Succession Remix) (Week #2, Down From #7)
King Push blew away all expectations and turned what many thought would be a throwaway remix verse into one of the hardest hitting tracks we've heard him on all year.
