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.

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.)

Ahead of their fourth full-length record, Joyride The Pale Horse, arriving on April 25, Heart Attack Man has unleashed the title track for the LP. The Cleveland-based trio also paired its arrival with an official music video. Lead singer Eric Egan notes, “This song ended up really feeling like the combination of all the ideas and feelings present throughout the album; hence why it’s the title track, and why it felt fitting to have it be the closer.

Chase Petra embraces the theatrical flair of William Shakespeare as they dive into their new album, Lullabies For Dogs. “Not only is William Shakespeare arguably the most celebrated writer of all time, but he regularly got a little bit silly with it,” the band shares. While channeling Shakespeare’s balance of humor and heartbreak, the group explores how his wit, emotional depth, and cultural legacy continue to shape their songwriting and pop culture at large. As titans in their own right, Chase Petra draws from the bard’s timeless duality, crafting songs that both sting and soothe with a modern edge. “Away,… Read more »
