Staff Picks with NxWorries, John Lennon, Offspring and Dead Kennedys

Associate Editor Ruby Risch

NxWorries (Anderson .Paak, Knxwledge) feat. Snoop Dogg & October London

"FromHere"

Feeling aimless? Me too. Might as well float along to this hazy slow-burn. NxWorries reunites with a track that coasts more than it climbs—Knxwledge lays down a buttery beat, Anderson .Paak does his thing, and Snoop slides through like it’s 2002. Here’s to hoping that we figure out where to go from here.

Offspring

"One Fine Day"

The Offspring look back fondly on the glory days of punk, with all of its nihilism and wanton destruction. "1,2,3..."

Operations Manager Robin Rose

John Lennon

"Imagine"

Speak for itself--one of the best lyrics ever written.

Editorial Intern Cade Pinkerson

Dead Kennedys

"Moon Over Marin"

Despite being one of the more radio-friendly hits in Dead Kennedy's discography, this doesn't detract from the nostalgic chokehold the song has had fans in since its release. Packed with anti-authority lyrical digs about environmentalism in California, the song uniquely pairs them with an air of ambiance and psychedelia rarely seen by East Bay punk bands. This track is absolutely a top-tier "replay until you're sick of it" song.
