There For Tomorrow have announced their decision to break up. The band will play two final shows in Orlando this December.
To celebrate 10 years of being a band together, The Wonder Years have announced three anniversary shows at the Union Transfer in Philadelphia, PA. For each show, the band will play a different album from their discography, including
The trend of streaming songs, and even entire albums, ahead of release is fast becoming the norm. But while it seems great for music fans, how is it affecting bands?
Even if you’re convinced that a band changing their sound is the worst thing that’s ever happened to you, it’s perfectly natural for someone’s music to develop and shift from album to album. But every once in a while, those shifts are so dramatic that the early work ends up sounding like it was released by an entirely different band than the more recent material.

Because 90’s music ruled so much, many of today’s bands and artists are following in the footsteps of the legends of the decade. Genres were created and innovation was the status quo, so… Read more »
Twenty-four years ago, the human race entered the 90’s. With the neon fishnets and mile-high hair of the 80’s still lingering in the distance, we didn’t have any clue about the epicness that was to ensue. The 90’s were a time for growth, expansion, and learning. Countless ideas came to fruition and many aspects of our society reached peaks we hadn’t imagined.
