Say Anything are back together and have released a brand new track, “Psyche!” Today. They are a band that have always done things differently than everyone else.

Hell, their first full-length album, …Is A Real Boy, was intended to be a performative musical that transformed into a two-part melodic odyssey. With spoken word interludes, triumphant and drastic sonic changes within each… Read more »

Whether you like it or not, Machine Gun Kelly is an anomaly of the music industry, seemingly capable of anything he sets his mind to. After starting his career as a Cleveland rap sensation, the 32-year-old artist started to marry his rapper roots with pop-punk influences as evidenced by his 2019 full-length album Hotel Diablo before releasing two true-to-form pop-punk albums—2020’s Tickets To My Downfall and 2022’s mainstream sellout.
