Powerhouse frontwoman Hayley Williams shares the inspiration behind the reimagined record. “We’ve… Read more »
God is real, and her name is Taylor Swift. Whether or not you’re on board with Swiftie mania, it’s impossible to deny that the record-breaking artist is an industry-changing champion. From country to pop and rock to indie, she defies genre and definitely has a streak of emo running through her veins, as she’s noted Pete Wentz as a major songwriting inspiration in the past. After all, her vault tracks from Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) include collaborations with Fall Out Boy and Paramore’s Hayley Williams. You also can’t forget “Two Is Better Than One” with Boys Like Girls or… Read more »
Now more than ever, we need female role models in rock music. That is, women who raise their voices onstage and off to give the next generation of artists the confidence to stay true to who they are and write songs that reflect that. The road can sometimes feel rocky, and there will always be criticism, hate comments, comparisons, and misperceptions. But it’s about turning those challenges into something honest and beautiful that will help break the glass ceiling. Nashville-based pop-punk songstress Taylor Acorn is cutting out the noise and writing about her journey as a female artist on her… Read more »
The MTV Video Music Awards isn’t just a superficial awards show. It’s an institution that has crafted some of pop culture’s most iconic moments. Frankly, no other awards show has created massive ripples in the cultural zeitgeist such as Miley Cryus’ famous twerking moment and Beyoncé’s baby bump reveal alongside bands such as Alien Ant Farm playing their cover of “Smooth Criminal” or Rage Against The Machine and Limp Bizkit feuding onstage in 2000. However, many viewers equate the MTV VMAs to purely celebrating the efforts of most American Top 40 artists. This could not be further from the truth.… Read more »
Taking Back Sunday have announced the details of ‘152’, their first album in seven years and a celebration of how far they have come.
Are you ready for today’s flush of excitement? Pun intended, of course. The blink-182 guys are back with some potty humor, sharing a website link that leads to “The Stall.” Depicting what appears to be a public restroom decorated with graffiti and the band’s logo, the page reads, “Welcome to the stall, stay tuned for updates.” Fans online assume their favorite three-piece is about to drop some new tunes. Another message highlighted in pink font supports this theory of something big happening on September 5. “Restrooms will be closed for maintenance Tuesday 9/5,” the site reads.

As Paramore is nearing the end of their North American run of the This Is Why Tour, the trio paved their way through a 21-song setlist last night in San Francisco at the Chase Center. In a brilliant fusion of sports and music, vocalist Hayley Williams invited Golden State Warriors’ point guard, Steph Curry, to the stage for an electrifyingly special performance. The crowd was left awe-struck as Curry, known for his prowess on the court and for his remarkable three-point shots, joined Paramore on stage for an unforgettable rendition of “Misery Business.” Read more: The Maine Celebrate “Sweet 16”… Read more »
Last night’s headlining performance by Paramore on their This Is How Tour in Los Angeles etched itself in music history as it became even more extraordinary with the sensational surprise appearance of Billie Eilish. This wasn’t the first time these two powerhouse female artists shared the stage. In 2022, Eilish welcomed Paramore‘s vocalist, Hayley Williams, to join her for an electric rendition of the pop-punk group’s smash hit “Misery Business” and later returned the favor as Williams performed Eilish‘s soul-stirring track “Happier Than Ever” at Coachella. After delivering an explosive 19-track set last night, the band exited the stage, leaving… Read more »
