Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties have unleashed their latest single, “Whiplash,” a somber turning point for the 16-person ensemble’s forthcoming full-length In Lieu Of Flowers. The 11-track record will arrive on April 12 and can be pre-ordered here. Opening through an array of gentle, melancholy instrumentation, Dan Campbell’s (The Wonder Years) vocals pierce through the cacophony of sound. The track lives up to its name, acting as a breaking point for the group’s titular character as he faces his struggles with alcohol, and his developing story arc following the release of the band’s previous release, “Alone At St. Luke’s.”… Read more »

Boisterous vocals, glorious trumpets, and tied together with banging drums, the group delivers a song that triumphantly draws a scene of hopeful desperation.

Following the release of the titular track pulled from the forthcoming Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties LP, In Lieu Of Flowers, scheduled to arrive on April 12, the 16-person ensemble has revealed their new single “Paying Bills At The End Of The World.” Stepping into the shoes of Aaron West, a character he has masterfully embodied in the group’s earlier releases, vocalist Dan Campbell (The Wonder Years) seamlessly morphs into the titular persona of the project, skillfully portraying a life outside of his own. In the latest track, Campbell encapsulates the raw desperation of navigating life paycheck to paycheck,… Read more »

The Wonder Years, much like the TV show after which the band is named, have always been about tapping into real feelings, connecting with the audience, and making their fans feel like they’re not alone.
In 2015, Frank Zummo joined Sum 41. Since taking over on drums for the storied group, they’ve released two full-length albums and are gearing up to drop their final double album, Heaven :x: Hell, out March 29 via Rise Records.

Anyone who grew up on pop-punk knows the band’s legendary status, and their active presence will be missed, but I’m excited to see what the guys decide to pursue once their final tour wraps up later this year. Zummo has always been involved in a variety of cool projects that I’ve… Read more »
