We’ve finally unveiled our top albums of 2014 — but how did we arrive at that list? Check out our staff’s individual lists of their favorite releases of the year.
The Punk Goes Pop series is six volumes deep at this point, celebrating the release of its most recent compilation this week — but what if we were able to flip the script and pull in artists from the world of mainstream pop to take on music from our scene?
While it does boast one of the most impressive festival lineups of the year, Riot Fest isn’t just about the music — it’s also home to the most punk rock carnival around. And as we prepare ourselves for the wild ride of this year’s fest, we asked ourselves a question that few have dared to ask before: what if the artists playing this year’s Riot Fest were carnival attractions?
The Wonder Years have released a full-band version of “Living Room Song,” originally an acoustic b-side from 2011’s Suburbia: I’ve Given You All And Now I’m Nothing.
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.
Hot Water Music have released a music video for “Drag My Body” off the album Exister. The video was directed by Josh Hegard and shot in Silverlake, California.
Magnolia Park paid a visit to idobi Studios for a session, and pulled out a spine-tingling cover of Bring Me The Horizon’s “Drown”.
Ahead of their new album ‘Heartbreak Criminals’, NASTY have shared the title track, and it is a singalong beatdown anthem.
