It’s a truth universally acknowledged that when The Maine releases something new, we want to be first in line to try it. So when we were offered a trial run of their new fansite, Pillar, we eagerly signed up.
Behind every successful band there’s a solid management team taking care of all the details. In The Maine’s case, their team at 8123 is supportive, creative, and made up of only two people.
From landing in Phoenix the day “Bad Behavior” came out, to standing in line for three hours to meet a band called The Maine, here’s one emotional recap of 8123 Fest.
Megan Thee Stallion isn’t only a chart-topping queen of rap with such hits as “HISS” and “Savage,” she. is an alternative lover through and through. Aside from loving anime and even being a 2024 Crunchyroll Awards presenter, she is also an alt baddie for her recent collaboration with Spiritbox. Together, the two artists made the “Cobra (Rock Remix)” which reimagined Megan‘s original “Cobra” with a heavy metal edge.

On February 10, Paramore announced that they have been named as Ambassadors for Record Store Day 2024. “The discovery of music was always meant to be romantic.
