In recent years, Indigenous women have fought to grab hold of the spotlight and give us a glimpse into the beauty of their culture as well as the horrors they’ve experienced over the years. From the Marvel Cinematic Universe to award-winning films to the stage, here are just a few of the powerful Indigenous women defying the stereotypes and taking back what’s rightfully theirs.
London, brace yourselves, as Korn is set to cross the pond this summer for their most monumental UK show to date in their epic return. After a seven-year hiatus from performing in the heart of the British capital, the nu-metal mainstays are back and ready to rock! The band has just unveiled a series of headline shows for the summer, kicking off on August 8 and culminating in a spectacular outdoor crescendo at Gunnersbury Park in London on August 11. Across the three UK shows, Korn will be joined by Denzel Curry, Spiritbox, WARGASM, and Loathe as support. Tickets for… 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 »

With 2024 swiftly underway, a wave of eagerly-awaited new singles, albums, and more are poised to make their way into the heavy rotation of our go-to playlists sooner than we realize. Unlike the previous year when Fireworks dropped their new collection, Higher Lonely Power—their first full-length since 2014’s Oh, Common Life—on New Year’s Day, we’ve had a moment to decompress from the holiday madness before diving headfirst into the new release calendar marked by the turn of the new year. Ranging from long-awaited releases such as Neck Deep’s self-titled album and Ghost Atlas’ first new collection since 2017, to debut… Read more »
To say we’re excited about the highly-anticipated Alkaline Trio album, Blood, Hair, And Eyeballs, the group’s first full-length since 2018’s Is This Thing Cursed?, would be a massive understatement. As of publishing, we are approximately 22 days (depending on where you’re located in the world) out until their tenth studio album officially drops via Rise Records on January 26. The album has already given fans a taste of its brilliance and what to expect from the full collection through the titular track and their latest emotionally charged anthem, “Bad Time.” While we’re eagerly awaiting the arrival of their new collection,… Read more »
As the release of their third album, How To Disappear, looms, Casey has unleashed the contemplative ballad “Selah.” The aptly titled record marks the group’s full-length return following the announcement of their 2018 disbandment and is set to debut on January 12 via Hassle Records. The group’s latest effort showcases a shift toward a quieter, more introspective tone compared to the album’s previous previews: “Puncture Wounds To Heaven,” “How To Disappear,” and “Bite Through My Tongue.” Rather than having their post-hardcore roots prominently on display, “Selah” flourishes with melancholic percussion, moody guitar melodies, and vocalist Tom Weaver’s reflective delivery. At… Read more »
