Once upon a time, we were excited over the announcement of a full-length animated film about Gorillaz. The idea seemed perfect for an animated band that has had a long career. Now Netflix is breaking our hearts and canceling the project. This comes with Netflix making budget cuts for their animation department. In an interview promoting their new album, Cracker Island, Damon Albarn told HUMO (translated by Stereogum), “They started to panic because they were making too much content and decided to cut back on their movie offerings. And, as has been classic Hollywood practice for decades, the guy we… Read more »
Meet Me @ The Altar is taking us back to the days of zoning out in school while thinking about our crush. The band dropped a brand new single called “Kool”, off of their upcoming album Past // Present // Future. — The song is paired with a music video that will have you taking an even deeper dive into the nostalgia rabbit hole. The classically pop-punk track is sung in a bedroom with band posters on the wall and J-14-type magazines everywhere. It’s the perfect place to stare at your home phone and decide if you’re going to call… Read more »

Chad Tepper’s journey has seen him go from being homeless when he was younger into now selling out concert festivals and millions of streams. This interview is amazing and a MUST listen.

The band chats about their formation, decade long friendship, favorite songs to play live and their biggest influences. They have multiple upcoming tours in 2023.
From the moment you’re in Chad Tepper’s presence, you know he lives and breathes gratitude, authenticity, and pop-punk. If there is anyone out there being unapologetically himself, it’s this man. Chad is friends with everyone in the room, and the different parts of his life all intersect to make him exactly who he is. His music career, the people he surrounds himself with, his life philosophies, and his dreams all flow together. When I sat down with Chad at The Gathering, he immediately set the tone by saying, “We need to be more appreciative. We have air in our lungs.”… Read more »

I have long time friend and singer/songwriter Em Whitehurst from the band Survival Guide, I met her when she was the lead singer for pop punk outfit Tsnumai Bomb and alternative band The Action Design. We first toured together in 2002 on Warped Tour (One of my first tours) and eventually my old band I Am Ghost would buy her tour van, lots of stories about Em and more this week.
