Something wicked this way comes with a new collaboration from Twin Temple and KILLSTAR. The satanic doo-wop act mixes the dark and sinister with ‘60s-inspired designs. “We hope you enjoy, just as much as we enjoyed making it,” frontwoman Alexandra James says in an Instagram Reel. The devious collection dropped today on the KILLSTAR site and features a range of pieces. From cozy leggings and sweaters that showcase a bleeding Twin Temple logo to vampire-esqe dresses that’ll frighten any believer. A statement Viper handbag, earrings, and choker are also up for grabs to accessorize to the nines. A spiderweb cowboy… Read more »

The 2001 Family Values Tour boasts two acts – Linkin Park and Staind – with triple-platinum albums currently in the Billboard top 10, though neither group is the headliner. That distinction goes to Stone Temple Pilots, who met the challenge at the tour’s second stop Friday, at the Allstate Arena near Chicago. Led by Scott Weiland, Stone Temple Pilots played like a band with something to prove to the young crowd of some 15,000 fans, which – nearly a decade after the release of their debut album, Core, and in an era dominated by rap-rock and nü-metal – they do.… Read more »
Hey, Footballhead! The Chicago alt-rock band, which includes The Academy Is…’s Adam Siska and suburban indie rockstar, Snow Ellet dropped their single “Like A Blister.” The track comes from their upcoming debut album, Overthinking Everything, which arrives on March 1 via Tiny Engines. Vocalist Ryan Nolen started the project in 2022, and the latest song encapsulates a montage of melancholia. This is the third single off of their upcoming LP, and relishes the dreariness of a winter in a prominent early 2000s young adult, indie flick. The opening guitar riff is reminiscent of alt-radio faves Everclear and Gin Blossoms. It… Read more »

Earlier this year, Beartooth joined Papa Roach on their collaborative effort, “Cut The Line,” a re-released track featured on Papa Roach’s 2023 album Ego Trip. Now, we’ve got our first taste of 2023 of Caleb Shomo and co. doing what they do best on their new single, “Sunshine!” Marking the group’s first new release since July 2022’s “Riptide,” “Sunshine!” is a startlingly optimistic track offering filthy breakdowns with the group settling for a juxtaposing acoustic, stripped-down chorus that stands out amongst their past releases. Even upon first listen, it’s easy to hear that “Sunshine!” will become a staple of the… Read more »
Big Noise’s pop-punk duo, girlfriends, consisting of Travis Mills and Nick Gross, has dropped their latest endeavor—a stripped-down new single, “Life’s a Brittany.” Acting as the follow-up to their 2023 titular track, the band will release their next EP, Over My Dead Body, through Big Noise on May 12. Produced By Andrew Goldstein (Machine Gun Kelly, blackbear, Papa Roach), the acoustic-driven “Life’s a Brittany” showcases a softer, sweeter side of the band with a twinkling background and takes a more emotional approach than their previous singles. The thunderous finale of the track, “Life’s a Brittany” is driven by self-expression and… Read more »
Basically: A confectionary celebration of middle school—layered with enough puberty, generational trauma, repression, sisterhood, and boy bands to bring out the beast in any girl. Domee Shi, the writer and director of the unforgettable Pixar short Bao, is back again and it’s on. Shi has a way of imbuing metaphor and allusion into explorations of family dynamics, that are especially relatable for people of Chinese descent but also for the children of immigrants of every culture. She absolutely excels at bridging the need to connect to your heritage while still fitting into the place you live, and she achieves this… Read more »
