House Of Protection, aka Stephen Harrison and Aric Improta, dazzled new fans with their debut EP GALORE in September 2024, and they’re finally ready to show off their sophomore EP Outrun You All. Fresh off their tour with Poppy, the veteran hardcore duo is making all their wildest sonic dreams come true as they intertwine their heavy roots with jump-inducing trip-hop sonics.

On their seven-track Outrun You All, House… Read more »

Initially, TikTok users thought that this might be Sleep Token at work with more tunes or that Ghost was revealing more about their new leader. However, some eagle-eyed viewers noticed that Charlie Simpson, an OG member of UK pop-punk band Busted and also frontman of post-hardcore outfit Fightstar, filed a trademark for the band name… Read more »

As 3OH!3 gears up for their return to Warped Tour this summer and fall—appearing on all three weekends of the revived festival—Nat Motte and Sean Foreman took a detour down memory lane during their recent idobi Warped Radio interview. And not just any memory: Silent Library. The cult-favorite MTV series, a bizarre hybrid of Jackass and a study hall fever dream, famously challenged artists to perform absurd dares—all while staying silent in a “library” setting. For 3OH!3, the show was already on their radar thanks to its original Japanese incarnation. “Yeah, yeah, yeah, we had seen the Japanese version of… Read more »

With the final season of Netflix’s You causing quite a stir on the internet since its launch last Thursday, April 26, we’re putting our own spin on bidding the series farewell. Record spin, that is. The main character, Joe Goldberg, played by Penn Badgley, is a man of too-many-to-keep-track-of contradictions. Bookish yet brutal, romantic yet ruthless.

Below, we’ve paired each of his partners with the album that best… Read more »
