MxPx will release Before Everything and After, their first album in three years, on August 19th. The album has been delayed twice before: first because of mastering issues, and a second time while the band changed the sequencing. “It’s Metallica time,” jokes drummer Yuri Ruley about the extended gap between records. “We’ve put out thirteen brand new recordings since our last full release,” frontman Mike Herrera explains. “That’s almost a full album.” The Renaissance EP included nine of those songs, two more new tunes were added to the greatest hits collection Ten Years and Running and two were on a… Read more »
Weezer have released a new music video for their single “Back to the Shack.” The song comes from their upcoming album ‘Everything Will Be Alright In The End’, which is scheduled to drop October 7th with Republic Records.
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 »
On their third CD, “Out of the Vein,” Third Eye Blind produces the same solid middle-of the road rock as on their previous discs. But they take their formula one step further for what is the San Francisco-based group’s most personal creation to date. The album doesn’t provide any song as catchy as the group’s first single, 1997’s “Semi-Charmed Life.” Instead of churning out radio-ready singles, frontman Stephen Jenkins uses “Out of the Vein” as a “break-up album,” trying to figure out what went wrong in his relationship. Jenkins turns to astrology on the impressive “Palm Reader,” admitting an addiction… Read more »

Have Mercy may have released a self-titled EP last year, but with the release of their Rude Records debut full-length album, NUMB, the trio is officially back. In 2019, the announcement of Have Mercy‘s farewell tour initially felt like the closing chapter of an era—a victorious lap coming to a poignant conclusion. This emotional goodbye was only worsened and cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic. These unforeseen setbacks added an extra layer of emotion to what was already a deeply sentimental farewell, leaving fans grappling with uncertainty about the band’s future and the possibility of bidding them a proper goodbye.… Read more »

A band constantly compared to the likes of Sum 41, blink-182, and Simple Plan, FRND CRCL are certainly making waves as an emerging pop-punk outfit in the scene. Today, the group released their third full-length studio album, Suburban Dictionary. The new record blends everything we love about throwback pop-punk with modern hip-hop melodies. Catchy choruses, whip-smart lyricism, and lighting-fast song structures, make the band stand out from the rest. The album overall is a conceptual piece that guides listeners through the experience of a suburbanite from start to finish. Speaking on their new album, FRND CRCL shared in a statement:… Read more »
