He continues, “We could hear gunshots and sirens as the situation escalated. My friend asked if it was a bad… 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.

Sometimes when a heavy band returns after a long hiatus, they tend to change their sound a bit to be slightly more appealing to a wider audience. Certainly nothing wrong with that, but blessthefall have stuck… Read more »
The Legacy pop-rock band, Mayday Parade have gifted fans with a brand new song “More Like A Crash” today. Last night the group premiered the track right here on Idobi Radio for the very first time courtesy of taking over our “Fresh At Five”.

The track is super upbeat, and certainly drives with catchy guitars and sing-along vocals, but remains very much in tune with the intense feelings a classic Mayday Parade song invokes. Guitarist, Alex Garcia shares on… Read more »
