It seemed especially difficult to commit to our selection of top albums this year, but after laboring over it for what might be considered an unreasonable amount of time, we were finally able to narrow it down. Check out our top 10 albums of 2013!
Better Off’s nostalgic emo punk effort is a remarkable display of skill and maturity that you wouldn’t usually expect on a debut album.
In the past few years, Harrisburg, PA’s Koji has become just as well-known for his activism, unrelenting positivity, and the intimacy of his live shows as he has for his recorded music. He just arrived home from an extensive North American co-headliner with labelmates Turnover, and idobi editor Eleanor Grace caught up with him at one of the tour’s final dates to talk about how the past two months on the road have treated him, working with a full band, his thoughts on the scene, and how this tour has seen him reclaim his voice.
idobi writer Catherine Yi caught up with lead singer Nathan Hussey of All Get Out at their recent show in Los Angeles to talk about the constant grind of touring, dealing with tough crowds, freestyle lyricism and more.
