Ahead of their Side Effects EP, House Parties is unleashing their brand-new track “Mid-Life Crisis” paired with trippy new visuals. The song follows their October release “Braindead,” a fiery track featuring the one and only Derek DiScanio of State Champs as a producer.

Today is a great day to discover your new favorite band. Texas-based House Parties is happy to make your acquaintance with their vivacious new single, “Braindead.” Marking their first release signed to Equal Vision Records, the pop-punk trio introduces themselves to the world through lively gang vocals, dynamic drum fills, and driving guitars that stay the course through the entire arrangement. It is a fiery anthem with the same tongue-in-cheek spirit as scene heavy-hitters like State Champs—and coincidentally, frontman Derek DiScanio is listed as a collaborator on the track. In a statement, House Parties shares the meaning behind the single… Read more »
Lauren Mayberry is taking her power back. Releasing her new single “Shame” via Island Records, the CHVRCHES vocalist is experimenting with her love of ‘90s pop-rock, musical theatre, and synth-wave across the arrangement. It is a multi-layered piece that explores the relatable feeling of shame, which is an incredibly complex emotion. Mayberry paints a vivid picture that juxtaposes uncertainty with sarcasm, giving the song a twinge of humor that lightens the mood. “I had the idea for a while of a song that had the tagline of ‘what a shame’, but in a sarcastic way,” she says. “And the word… Read more »
We love it when punk bands put their own original spin on classic songs. The Linda Lindas are no exception, giving us a fresh take on a ‘60s classic with their cover of “Little Bit O’ Soul” by The Music Explosion. Released today via Epitaph Records, the guitar-driven arrangement is on the soundtrack for the new Amazon Prime film, ‘Totally Killer.’ From the first riff, The Linda Lindas’ cover is as evocative and explosive as your favorite Joan Jett song. The simple arrangement of electric guitars, bass, drums, and filtered vocals make the track infectiously catchy and danceable. Plus, the… Read more »
To celebrate the return of ‘Loki,’ we’ve highlighted a few bands who were once on top of the world but have seemingly become a nostalgic memory, left sitting like sand on the bottom of an hourglass, lost in the depths of our iPod nanos.
Indie-rockers HUNNY took over our playlists with the likes of “Homesick” and “Xbox Luvr,” and they’re doing it again with the new track “ring in ur ear” featuring none other than Motion City Soundtrack vocalist Justin Courtney Pierre. Transporting us back to cute yet horrendously awkward high school days, HUNNY performs in an unhinged talent show circa 2003. Painting a lyrical picture of young love, the band will give you all the nostalgic feels you need for a mid-week pick-me-up. Check out the brand-new music video below. Preceded by “big star,” “action → reaction,” “solo” and “89cc,” “ring in ur… Read more »

From the opening notes, the unmistakable pop-punk prowess that defines The Story So Far takes center stage on “Big Blind.” This resounding track radiates a sense of familiarity while infusing it with newfound vitality. The interplay of instruments and the emotive vocals of Parker Cannon echo the very essence of the band’s trademark sound, presenting a captivating fusion… Read more »
Happy July 4th! From cookouts to pool parties, this American holiday is best celebrated outdoors with family and friends. And, of course, one secret ingredient to the perfect Independence Day festivities is fireworks! But we’re not just talking about the red and blue sparklers that light up the sky. At idobi, we are major fans of the Detroit pop-punk band Fireworks. A cult favorite in the scene, Fireworks formed in 2004 and signed to the iconic Run For Cover Records just a year later. Known for their mix of bright guitar tones and introspective lyrics, the band hit their stride… Read more »
