12 New-Age Protest Songs To Listen To This 4th of July


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 »

Time flies when FOB is an active band, ya know? Uniquely, 2015 was the release year of some of the most iconic records in the… Read more »

11 Up-And-Coming Artists That Every AFI Fan Should Be Listening To


Despite all the territory they’ve covered in their near-thirty tenure, AFI retains an impressively conspicuous identity. It’s the Tim Burton condition in which, despite rejecting the confines of any categorical genre with each new release, they have an innate flair that renders them instantly recognizable. But that’s not to say that they exist outside the realm of reasonable comparison. We scoured the alternative underground to prove that point.

Senses Fail & Saves The Day Announce New Jersey vs. The World Tour


Your inner teenager is calling, and it wants you to rock out with Senses Fail and Saves The Day on their upcoming New Jersey vs. The World Tour! The 2000s emo explosion was a defining cornerstone in music history, bringing albums like Saves The Day’s Through Being Cool and Senses Fail’s Let It Enfold You. These albums were made by teens, for teens, and perfectly encapsulate the trepidatious unease that fuels the intoxicating exuberance and despair of youth. Few records have had the kind of influence on the pop-punk and emo genres as Through Being Cool did through its 1999… Read more »
