ALT CTRL is home to the latest and greatest in alternative music. Here, it’s as much an attitude as a sound—music that keeps things a little left of center and rough around the edges. This week, have a conversation about Bad Suns’ “Communicating,” a single from the California rock band’s upcoming full-length Accelerator—out this August. “While making this album, I turned 30, I got married, and I found out I was having a kid,” group leader Christo Bowman tells Apple Music. “Going to the studio every day and being in the room with the guys, I had this sense that I'm going to look back and know that was probably one of the best times of my life.” Check back often, as our editors update this playlist regularly—and if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
