He continues that he met a fan during one of their stops on the 2017 Warped Tour run. “Flash forward, that kid’s name is Dylan he’s now an adult.

Marking their first new music of 2024 and perfectly timed for Valentine’s Day, Loveless has unleashed their infectious new single, “Addicted.” And yes, yes we are. While the track explores emotional dependency culminating in addiction (“I lie to you again/She said is it gonna be alright?”), the accompanying music video depicts a life of lush luxury reined in by the group’s success. The portrayal sees vocalist/frontman Julian Comeau and multi-instrumentalist Dylan Tirapelli-Jamail indulge in a life of excess after signing away their artistry to a room of execs. Of course, the standout moment of the track is a seemingly subtle… Read more »

The wildly energetic melody unleashes a delicious barrage of belts, yearning choruses, and impressive falsetto. “Oh why do I beg my legs to take me/Much farther than they were meant to/I plead in vain these bleeding hands might reach for you,” Jhariah sings. Believe… Read more »
