Point North is back with a new track, “DEAD 2 ME,” ahead of a busy winter on the road and following a dazzling set at Warped Tour Orlando. Point North’s Jon Lundin notes, “When writing ‘DEAD 2 ME,’ we were aiming to create something that would play at a massive hip hop festival, but put our own heavy spin on it. The vocals are extremely busy and gritty, and I really wanted to lean into the self-confidence I seldom sing about.” He adds, “‘DEAD 2 ME’ isn’t about just one person, but more so about anyone that ever fed me… Read more »

The KPop Demon Hunters moral panic continues. Sigh. The smash-hit Netflix release, produced by Sony Pictures, arrived in August of this year, and has only gone “up, up, up” in views, ratings, and pop culture awareness. However, some religious people read the word “demon” in the PG animated film title and had to make this about themselves. Recent reports note that a Christian school in the UK, specifically Lilliput Church of England Infant School, has banned the singing of KPop Demon Hunters songs on its premises. An original note sent to parents and staff revealed that some individuals are “deeply… Read more »

“How long have you been 17?” As it turns out, Twilight—the film that defined a generation of teenage longing—has officially turned 17 itself. Released in 2008, Catherine Hardwicke’s adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s brooding vampire romance captured a cultural moment of forbidden love, both on screen and through a soundtrack that further immersed the film in an alternative climate. But if Twilight were released today, what would it sound like? 17 years after the film’s original release, we’re reimagining an already iconic soundtrack to echo the emotional weight that spoke to a Team Edward or Team Jacob generation.

When Tickets To My Downfall dropped in 2020, it marked a major crossover moment for MGK (formerly Machine Gun Kelly). After years rooted in hip-hop—with past collaborations alongside Sleeping With Sirens and name-drops of blink-182 in “Her Song”—the album solidified his transformation into a full-fledged pop-punk frontman. Produced alongside blink-182’s Travis Barker (with whom MGK had already worked on “I Think I’m OKAY” featuring YUNGBLUD), Tickets To My Downfall became a defining moment in the pop-punk revival. It topped charts, divided critics, and reignited interest in Warped Tour-era guitar music—all while proving MGK could thrive outside the rap world. Since… Read more »
LØLØ is back with her raw new single, “me with no shirt on,” with an accompanying music video. She says, “Writing this song had me spiraling, feeling desperate and embarrassed — but I think it turned out really honest. It really hurts when someone who was once obsessed with you, couldn’t care less anymore. It’s very confusing, and makes you question your self-worth. But ladies, take it from me, a half-naked selfie cannot save your relationship. (P.S. Dad if you’re reading this…omg I’m totally kidding I’ve never done that!)” Watch the official music video below. LØLØ also shared on social media,… Read more »
