Marking the end of an era, Issues held their final show on January 28, which was one of two back-to-back performances in Atlanta, GA. Throughout this farewell tour run, Brian Butcher of The Home Team has assumed vocal responsibilities alongside the steadfast trio of Skyler Acord, Josh Manuel, and AJ Rebollo. However, during the January 27 show in Atlanta, GA, fans were treated to a monumental moment in the band’s sendoff. Michael Bohn, one of the band’s original lead vocalists who parted ways in 2018, took to the stage alongside the three remaining members to deliver a bone-crushing performance of… Read more »
In 2015, Frank Zummo joined Sum 41. Since taking over on drums for the storied group, they’ve released two full-length albums and are gearing up to drop their final double album, Heaven :x: Hell, out March 29 via Rise Records. The ending of Sum 41 is a weird thought. Anyone who grew up on pop-punk knows the band’s legendary status, and their active presence will be missed, but I’m excited to see what the guys decide to pursue once their final tour wraps up later this year. Zummo has always been involved in a variety of cool projects that I’ve… Read more »

In a statement on the homepage, Wentz shares, “Since I was a little kid, I loved dressing… Read more »

At first glance, the thought of setting emo bangers to orchestral strings doesn’t sound real. How could the soothing nature of classical music ever match up to the angst and grit of the Warped Tour scene? However, this juxtaposition creates the most magical blend of emotionally charged lyrics and dynamic instrumentation. Hawthorne Heights experiments with this theatrical sound on an orchestral rendition of their latest single, “The Storm,” pulled from their freshly released EP, Lost Light, which dropped last month. Celebrating their current tour with Emo Orchestra, the new version paints Hawthorne Heights’ authentically emo-punk sound in a new and… Read more »
