While we’ll always hold our favorites—My Chemical Romance, Simple Plan, Paramore…the list goes on—near and dear to our hearts, our… Read more »
Here at idobi, we love artists who make a statement with their music. From Green Day’s American Idiot to Neck Deep’s The Peace And The Panic, music and lyrics remain a powerful outlet for bands to share their socio-political views and spark movements within their fanbases. YouTube star turned pop-punk act, NOAHFINNCE is speaking out on trans rights and calling out TERFs in his latest single, “scumbag.” Combining his unique blend of distorted guitars and Myspace-era synthesizers, the new song is a dynamic diss track that cleverly fights back against transphobia. With lyrics like “this inclusion delusion gender confusion/why are… Read more »
Meet the duo that are taking over the alternative scene one glitched-out, catchy chorus at a time.

“Did you know there was an all female music festival back in the 90’s?” My mother asked me this question a few weeks ago as we were getting ready to go out to dinner. Standing side by side in my hall bathroom, making some last minute touches to our hair and outfits, Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) blasted from the living room speakers. My mom has always been my go-to when it comes to women in music, exposing me to an endless slew of amazing female artists as I grew up. The conversation started as we praised Taylor Swift for the… Read more »

The Brooklyn-based math rock connoisseur, Jhariah has released their highly-anticipated new song, “RISK, RISK, RISK!” today. Sonically, this track is a HELL of a song. It is rare for an up-and-coming artist to successfully blend so many different soundscapes and influences into one track, but Jhariah does it and does it perfectly. It is glaringly obvious that they are making a big splash into the alternative rock scene, and this new song cements their place at the table. Alternative rock is a severe understatement though. There is not a box that Jhariah can be put into. They impressively fuse dance-punk,… Read more »

Dunes, The Sound Of Animals Fighting, and Saosin, Green has announced a short run of dates to promote his 2022 solo feat, Boom. Done.
