For Americans across the nation, this July 4th might not feel like one worth celebrating. In Trump’s first six months in office, he’s sent the military on U.S. citizens in Los Angeles. ICE arrests have broken innocent families apart, and in most cases, those being deported have no criminal record (or are actual American citizens). Countless pieces of legislation were introduced or passed that take direct aim at the LGBTQ+ community. Federal workers were laid off en masse, the genocide in Palestine rages on, and this is merely scratching the surface. Refer back, even further, to 2023 when SCOTUS overturned… Read more »
Vans Warped Tour season is officially kicking off on June 14 in Washington, D.C., and we are already starting to apply our sunscreen and get super hydrated. Additionally, we are all rummaging through our closets, thinking about what to wear. After all, most of us are elder emos now… So, do we wear our comfy shoes and pants? Do we opt for our old-school Demonia platforms and chains? Whatever you choose to wear, just make sure it’s ready for moshing, jumping, and kicking. If you’re like us and need a bit of inspiration before your tour stop in DC, Long… Read more »

After going viral for their house party shows and announcing their new OnlyFans page, The All-American Rejects are back with their new single and music video for “Easy Come, Easy Go.” This track is preceded by their single “Sandbox.” Uniquely, the colorful music video is a stunning stop-motion claymation feature made by the lovely people at Rough N’ Tumble Productions. In fact, you can also spot band and show posters on the mini walls of the music video room. Some posters include The Phantom Of The Opera, Wayne’s World, Sonic Youth, The Replacements, Stone Temple Pilots, The B-52s, and more.… Read more »
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. There are few, if any other, alternative acts who are putting so much time and care into creating a live show that kindles a fire (no pun intended) in each of their listeners. On their seven-track Outrun You All, House… Read more »
Sleep Token and Slipknot can’t have all the fun. A new masked, mysterious project has emerged, and the internet is already posting its theories. PRESIDENT first began “campaigning” on social media on February 18, though the YouTube channel was originally created on January 1, 2025. 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 »

Green Day played their Coachella Weekend 2 headlining set on April 19, and they had many surprises for the day. To intro their set, Punk Bunny, aka their coffee brand mascot, ran across the stage.

It’s only a matter of time before My Chemical Romance—the band that rewrote the DNA of emo for an entire generation clad in black suits and red ties—gets the Hollywood treatment. At least we freaking hope so! With the success of the Oscar-winning Bohemian Rhapsody and the Oscar-nominated A Complete Unknown, we can’t help but imagine what an MCR movie would look like: the eyeliner, the concept albums, the trauma, the triumph. Or perhaps, a post-apocalyptic afterlife centered around The Black Parade, with The Patient as the lead character and the band themselves driving the story forward through musical performances.… Read more »
