Panic! At The Disco have undergone drastic changes with every album, resulting in a distinctively different sound on each album – some will enjoy the change and musical exploration, others will frown upon yet another departure from the band’s roots.
The Los Angeles-based five-piece have put out a seven song EP that defies all expectations for a band that only formed a year ago.
Packed with colossal hooks and melodies, State Champs’ debut album The Finer Things stands out as one of the best pop punk releases this year and raises the bar sky high for the genre.
Into It. Over It.’s sophomore album Intersections still contains his signature vivid guitars and genius lyricism, but ditches the more straightforward pop melodies for something rawer yet more complex. Evan Weiss returns to the roots of Into It. Over It.’s original recordings while also exploring new directions in his music, achieving two goals where artists normally strive for one.
Moving Mountains’ self-titled release is a beautiful compromise of melodic indie and post-rock, offering something for listeners both old & new.
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.
Culprit has poured effort and honesty into their latest EP Totem, proving their talent musically on every track.
Adding fuel to the blend-rock-and-roll-with-pop-music fire, the Virginia quartet otherwise known as Parachute dive head first into the fight for a hit pop song with their latest record, Overnight.
With Challenges, Farewell Fighter have easily picked up where they left off with their last EP and set out to make a better, stronger, and more complete set of tracks – which they have undoubtedly accomplished.
Although the songs within the album lack some musical distinction from one another, The SpacePimps’ third studio release covers a lot of ground. Whether you’re in the mood for some emotional and hard-hitting lyrics, moshing and singing along to some quality pop-punk, or a bit of nostalgia, you’ll definitely find something to love about this album.
