It's the most patriotic week of the year and we're barely talking about it, because that's how we roll. 

The actions of Irish artists dominate the news section, though. Speaking of, Julie Hough of HAVVK fame returns in honour of new album To Fall Asleep, which is out RIGHT NOW. 

Plus - some songs we don't feel all that great about listening to anymore.
