Many bands in our scene incorporate paranormal or horror imagery and themes into their releases. This can take the form of voodoo dolls (The… Read more »
408 fans, rejoice! Their cheeky new single “Break Up With Your Girlfriend” is officially available on all streaming platforms. Exclusively premiering on idobi Radio’s Gone Fishkin, the track is reminiscent of 90’s radio pop-rock: A time when Third Eye Blind and Matchbox Twenty were taking over the airwaves.

When the teaser video initially made its rounds on the band’s social media, fans were dismayed, overall rejecting the notion that AI art is ethical and/or worthwhile. In response to the backlash, L.S.… Read more »

Following his departure from Neck Deep in 2018, Fil Thorpe—one half of World’s First Cinema—was ready to take time away from the pop-punk world that had been his life for the previous 6+ years.
