With their self-titled album, The 1975 have crafted an incredible debut that will without a doubt go down as one of the best of the year.
We Came As Romans’ new album Tracing Back Roots contains a lot of what their previous fans loved as well as a few surprises thrown in. While the album feels a bit stale at points, altogether it proves to be cohesive, uplifting, and appealing.
We caught up with an extremely talented (and young) band that is creating a lot of buzz at this year’s Warped tour, Echosmith. The band consists of siblings that are no older than 20-years-old. They’ve landed a major record deal, and are probably one of the most ridiculously talented bands we’ve ever seen play Warped Tour. We’re impatiently awaiting their first album release.

With Feel, Sleeping With Sirens achieve every band’s goal: releasing a new album that offers something fresh while still retaining the sound their fans fell in love with. Whether your preference is angst-driven metal or poignant pop, this album is sure to leave you feeling something.
Liferuiner have decided to abandon their ties with old tracks like “A Ticket To The Pussy Crusher†and are trying to write honest, optimistic, and influential songs using key ingredients of melodic metalcore and straightedge hardcore: detuned guitars, predictable breakdowns, and lyrics pertaining to life’s inevitable struggles, hardships, and misery.
With Shane Henderson and the Future Perfect, Henderson utilizes the greater creative control he has on the aptly named Control to explore his musical capabilities, replacing the punk in pop punk with singer-songwriter instead as he moves toward a lighter, more laid-back feel.
In her latest album Wheel, Laura Stevenson contends with the confusing and contradictory cycle that is life. Through artfully-composed folk songs, rife with prose and interwoven with irony, Stevenson captures the mystifying enigmas that plague us all.
If a listener ever found himself or herself in need of an album to narrate their life story at the point where they’re staring up at the sky asking the big questions of life, Satellite’s Calling Birds may be the one.
With a couple hits and misses, the Acoustic EP effectively reveals another dimension in City Lights’ sound.
For their No Sleep Records debut, Major League were able to pull out all of the stops. While they may still be a relatively new band, Hard Feelings easily has the potential to become a classic and will find the band moving up to the big leagues of pop punk.
