GHØSTKID has announced a new album, Hollywood Suicide, and dropped the first single from the record, “FSU.” The new full-length comes out on March 22 via Century Media Records, ahead of their upcoming spring tour with Black Veil Brides, Creeper, and Dark Divine. The post-hardcore act embodies an edgy and (positively) offensive realness that hasn’t been in the scene for a bit. Dramatic make-up, masks at times, but overall, they appear like varieties of the undead, especially in the music video for the new single. All of which makes GHØSTKID stand out as new proverours in the genre. Vocalist Sebastian… Read more »

Iconic folk rock band, The Front Bottoms have finally gifted fans with their sixth full-length album You Are Who You Hang Out With today. A band that has always put real life experiences into their everso literal lyricism and funky production, they have unique way of crafting songs that make you feel nostalgic for an experience you may have never even had in your own life.
