As Bad Suns bask in the infinite joy emanating from their new EP, the six-track collection is more than meets the eye. In the creative universe of Christo Bowman, the visionary force of the group alongside Gavin Bennett (bass) and Miles Morris (drums), the group paints an ocean of emotions across each song, musing in on sorrow, pain, and joy. Ultimately, the amalgamation of the tracks on Infinite Joy reflects a picture of immense personal growth and resilience. In idobi Radio’s exclusive interview with Bowman, the vocalist/guitarist hones in on the influences that fueled the writing and recording of Infinite… Read more »
Alt-Pop trio, Bad Suns are back with a brand new single “The One I Used To Love” today. The track is their newest endeavor after last years theatrical album, Apocalypse When. A cathartic track about a relationship fizzling out in its final moments, the lyricism is somber along with instrumentation that glides with a welcoming groove. The chorus says “Now I’m lost at sea / at what cost I’m free / On an odyssey of apologies / My dependencies got the best of me / Now the rest of me struggles endlessly / But you’ll always be the one I… Read more »
Over the last two years, most of us have had a lot of extra time at home. Some people chose to learn something new (I downloaded Duolingo and now hablo español), some people spent a lot of time on TikTok or Netflix (or both), and some people helped score a recreation of the cult classic The Princess Bride. Or at least that’s what Christo Bowman, lead singer of indie-rock band Bad Suns did. “I’ve never even seen the [original] movie,” says Bowman when I ask him about the experience. We’re chatting via Zoom—he’s in the green room at the Rialto… Read more »
As is the nature of the content cycle, we’ve laughed, we’ve cried, and now we’re waiting for what comes next. This month we say a heavy-hearted goodbye to a lot of horror and action titles across Netflix. Among the most devastating losses are Jumanji, La La Land, The Terminal, and Sausage Party. So don’t miss your chance to watch them one last time before November 1. As we bid these titles farewell, we also get a fresh new array of titles coming to the streaming behemoth across the month. Here’s everything leaving Netflix this November. Leaving November 1st – 8th:… Read more »
There aren’t many bands contending with The Killers for the widest breadth of sonic profile. Since the day that cage door opened, they’ve strayed worlds away from their grit-and-glam ethos of post-punk revival. The trek’s seen them over the washboard roads of heartland rock, through flashbangs of synth-driven pop, and the wildflower fields on the softer side of folk. And still, now 20 years removed from their Hot Fuss debut, they continue to fire off their early staples with the same love-scorned ferocity that had first lit the fuse. In celebration of the bi-decadal anniversary today, June 7, we reached… Read more »
Say Anything are back together and have released a brand new track, “Psyche!” Today. They are a band that have always done things differently than everyone else. They stuck out like a sore thumb in the scene since their inception in a beautifully unique and transparently broken way. Max Bemis is a genius to say the least and you won’t find another project quite like his. Hell, their first full-length album, …Is A Real Boy, was intended to be a performative musical that transformed into a two-part melodic odyssey. With spoken word interludes, triumphant and drastic sonic changes within each… Read more »
