The Gaslight Anthem have shared their first new music since 2014, and it is as heartfelt, sentimental and grand as you would ever want it to be.
Time and time again, Magnolia Park proves to the music world that they are one of the major players in a new generation of pop-punk. They gave more evidence to that today with the release of two new songs as part of their deluxe edition of their debut album, Baku’s Revenge. “Complicated” and “Dizzy” are the perfect additions to the other tracks previously on the album. They’re full of heartbreak, matched with a catchy beat. “Complicated” starts off with a slow burn that ends up combusting a little over an minute in. The trap beat has elements of hip hop and… Read more »
Music festival season is just on the horizon and, while we wait for the gloomy weather to pass, we can revel in the flood of music news typical of this time of year. A majority of the music festival lineups are announced in January and the festival posters set the landscape for the year in live music, foreshadowing larger tours from bands, new album cycles, and even resurgences of genres and legacy bands that might be past their peak of popularity. Pop-punk is fresh off a massive re-emergence, showcased by the success of the When We Were Young Festival in… Read more »
Ozzy crooned, mooned and squirted his water guns, Disturbed bellowed, and Marilyn Manson vamped it up, but Ozzfest has always been just as much about the lesser-known acts, and Sunday’s show was no exception. Though bands like Kilgore, Pushmonkey and the perhaps aptly named No One have proven that Ozzfest exposure alone won’t make you famous, second-stage alumni System of a Down and Slipknot can attest that it certainly doesn’t hurt. Killswitch Engage’s potential spot in the Slipknot category seemed all but assured even before they appeared at Dallas’ Smirnoff Music Centre. Even though it was only the second show… Read more »
Twelve hours, four stages and more than 40 bands marked the end of the three-day Skate and Surf Festival on Sunday. Held at the Asbury Park Convention Hall, the second installment of the now annual event featured performances from Bouncing Souls, Face to Face and the Descendents, among many others. While the Warped Tour travels from town to town with many of skateboarding and BMX culture’s best-known athletes and favorite artists, the stationary Skate and Surf tends to be more down-home, offering quarter-pipes and rails to anybody bold enough to show up with a bike or a board and a… Read more »

Ahead of the massive Out Of Office Tour—beginning today, June 20—singer/songwriter Andrew McMahon is back with his first new track of 2024, “Death Grip” via Big Loud Rock. This collab of his two projects Something Corporate and Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness is an optimistic, breezy summer pop anthem every workaholic and/or control-lover needs to hear. McMahon says of the new track, “I honestly didn’t expect to be releasing new music this year. I’ve lived on the write, record, release, tour hamster wheel for a long time and decided after the last album I would do things differently. Giving myself… Read more »
Serving as their first new music in almost two years, A Day To Remember marks their momentous return with the explosive new single, “Feedback.” The bombastic track also marks the beginning of a new era for the post-hardcore giants, arriving ahead of their massive The Least Anticipated Album Tour, which kicks off next week on June 6 in Waite Park, MN. Racing across the fast-paced 2 minutes and 45 seconds of the track, “Feedback” is laced with a sense of urgency, quickly jolting into the chorus. As frontman Jeremy McKinnon belts, “If I wanna hear your feedback/Feedback/Feedback/I’ll let you know,”… Read more »
Arriving just in time for her back-to-back performances at Slam Dunk Festival in the UK, Taylor Acorn has unleashed her empowering new single “High Horse.” Acorn shares, “Over the years of sharing my music and being a presence online I’ve learned that no matter how hard you try, there will always be people who just really love to hate you. That fact has been one of the toughest pills to swallow because my Virgo brain wants to please everyone at all times, but at the end of the day you have to be strong and keep powering through despite what… Read more »
