Green Day played their Coachella Weekend 2 headlining set on April 19, and they had many surprises for the day. To intro their set, Punk Bunny, aka their coffee brand mascot, ran across the stage. Then, the pink head popped off to reveal Flavor Flav. The rapper and US women’s water polo team financial supporter (and super fan), of course, shared his iconic “Yeahhhhh boy!” to get the crowd hyped for Green Day. On Instagram, Flavor Flav shared, “Hoppy Easter from The Punk Bunny and Greenday and Flavor Flav,,, WOOWWWW,!! This was wild,!! Thankx to Tre and Mike and Billie… Read more »
It’s only a matter of time before My Chemical Romance—the band that rewrote the DNA of emo for an entire generation clad in black suits and red ties—gets the Hollywood treatment. At least we freaking hope so! With the success of the Oscar-winning Bohemian Rhapsody and the Oscar-nominated A Complete Unknown, we can’t help but imagine what an MCR movie would look like: the eyeliner, the concept albums, the trauma, the triumph. Or perhaps, a post-apocalyptic afterlife centered around The Black Parade, with The Patient as the lead character and the band themselves driving the story forward through musical performances.… Read more »

If you’re a scene kid, there’s no way you didn’t have a Paramore phase… or perhaps you’re still in it. (No judgment because same here.) From the band’s initial LP release All We Know Is Falling in 2005 to their most recent This Is Why album, the Hayley Williams-fronted group has transcended genre, infusing each song with relatable lyrics that have stood the test of time. Not to mention, Williams has become an idol for many young women who love the rock genre or are currently in the primarily male-dominated music space. With that being said, here is the best… Read more »
Marking his long-awaited return, KennyHoopla kicks off 2025 with “NORTHERN LIGHTS//,” his first release in nearly a year—and it’s unlike anything he’s dropped before. Departing from the raucous pop-punk energy that’s defined much of his catalog, the new track leans into an ambient, cinematic atmosphere that feels extremely intimate. Built around his hushed, almost whispered vocals and a twinkling guitar line that evokes the vast quiet of the Midwest emo/indie movement of the late ‘90s/early 2000s, “NORTHERN LIGHTS//” reveals a more introspective and experimental side of Kenny’s artistry. He shares the next chapter of his journey on social media. “I… Read more »
