An outspoken and instantly recognizable voice, letlive. frontman Jason Butler is reigniting the fire of modern punk rock with the band’s unequivocal message to the masses. One of music’s most unmistakably charismatic frontmen, the band has been tearing up stages across the country all year on Warped Tour and alongside bands like Every Time I Die and Bring Me The Horizon. idobi writers Alex Rudisill and Alexa Gallo spent some time with Jason at their appearance at South By So What?! to discuss the current state of music as well as his personal musical background.
Since its inception in 2012, Today’s Mixtape Festival has been one of our favorite fests to look forward to each year. For this week’s Tuesday Ten, here are the ten bands playing this year who we think you can’t afford to miss.
2013 was an insane year for Northlane. They released their sophomore album, Singularity, in March in their home country of Australia and in November here in the states to glorifying reviews. idobi writer Alex Rudisill caught up with bassist Alex Milovic to discuss the band’s current happenings.
Birmingham, Alabama’s Erra are young and full of ambition. Taking cues from bands like Misery Signals and Between the Buried And Me, the band recently released their latest record Augment through Tragic Records and are looking to hop back on the road this year. idobi writer Alex Rudisill chatted with the band’s guitarist/clean vocalist Jesse Cash on the current status of the band.
†††(Crosses), the latest band from Chino Moreno of Deftones, have released a music video for “Bi†ches Brew”. The song comes off the band’s upcoming self-titled album, which can be pre-ordered here. You can watch the rather creepy video below. httpvh://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBN-1Q0_Fiw
Avenged Sevenfold have released the first single and title track from the band’s forthcoming sixth studio album, Hail To The King, due out on August 27th via Warner Bros. Records. The band will head out on a U.S. tour this October with support from Deftones and Ghost B.C.
With a sound that calls to mind the likes of The Black Keys, The White Stripes, and Kasabian, Orthodox is one of those records that is meant to be heard live in the middle of a rowdy crowd on a hot Saturday night in some too-cramped club.
The aptly-titled Renacer is most certainly a rebirth for Senses Fail. One of the heaviest albums of 2013, the record leaves behind only minor traces of the Senses Fail we all know and love.
Senses Fail will release their fifth full-length Renacer, produced by Shaun Lopez (Deftones, Far), on March 26, 2013.
