If you’re watching Disney Jr. with your the kiddos, you may get an “awesome” new punk-tinged theme song in your life. blink-182‘s Mark Hoppus revealed that he crafted the theme song, “Totally Awesome,” for the Disney Jr. animated series Iron Man and His Awesome Friends. And yes… it is a banger, of course. This is not the first time an emo legend has crafted a Disney Jr. superhero TV show theme song—hyperspecific, I know. In 2023, Fall Out Boy‘s Patrick Stump made the theme for Marvel’s Spidey and his Amazing Friends. Stump also crossed into the DC realm in 2023,… Read more »
Andy Biersack—aka Andy Black of Black Veil Brides—joins idobi Warped Radio for a conversation filled with chaos, heart, and the kind of nostalgia that only Warped Tour can conjure. He takes us back to 2003, when he was just a 12-year-old fan attending his very first Warped with his dad. Camped out at one stage all day to see AFI, Andy was already dreaming about the day he’d play the iconic tour himself. That dream not only came true—it changed the course of his life. From falling in love with his now-wife Juliet Simms (aka Lilith Czar, whom he met… Read more »

Excitingly, it features all six members of the original band’s lineup for the first time in more than seven years.

The band said, “They shifted their weekly strength training plans to accommodate… Read more »
Andy Biersack (aka Andy Black) of Black Veil Brides joins idobi Warped Radio for a conversation that’s equal parts heart, chaos, and nostalgia. He reflects on attending his first Warped Tour in 2003 with his dad—just a 12-year-old kid camped out all day at one stage to see AFI, already dreaming of the day he’d play the legendary festival himself—and how that experience would go on to shape both his career and personal life. From falling in love with his now-wife Juliet Simms (aka Lilith Czar, whom he met on Warped), to literally throwing a poop bag off the tour bus at a group of fans by accident (yes, really), Andy shares it all.
In conversation with Brandy-Baye Robidoux, Andy opens up about growing up in the scene—from stepping on stage at 16 to returning to Warped Tour at 34—and how the tour became a turning point in understanding just how deeply his music resonated with fans. He opens up about the importance of lifting up new voices, how being bullied as a band shaped his ethos, and more.
Andy also lets us in on the things that shaped him: Sweeney Todd, Batman, and working alongside Juliet since day one. From breaking ribs onstage to breaking stereotypes off it, Andy Black proves once again he’s always been the real deal.

Fresh off their set at Vans Warped Tour DC, People R Ugly are back with a new pop-alternative banger, “BETTER.” The track is set to appear on their debut album, slated for release in fall 2025. Of the song, the band notes, “Rather than dwelling on a breakup, we flipped the narrative with the hook ‘I like you better, better when you’re off my mind. The bridge drives it home: ‘I should thank you, ’cause you’re the reason I don’t care anymore.’ It’s a simple concept, but delivered in an unexpected way, the kind of high-energy track you’d hear at… Read more »
Three Days Grace is back with their new single, “Dominate,” a track set to appear on their forthcoming album, Alienation, which arrives on August 22 via RCA Records. Vocalist and guitarist Matt Walst shared, “This song’s about the fire that wakes you up when the world doesn’t. The sun doesn’t rise or set for you — it just keeps spinning. If you want something, really want it, you’ve gotta bleed for it. You’ve gotta be willing to give up everything — sleep, comfort, peace — just to get a shot at being the best. I’ve lived that. I’ve felt the… Read more »

Vocalist Josh Katz notes, “Home is myself in a memory. Everything now feels foreign. We built our lives on youth and ambition – then one day you wake up 34, post-pandemic, and realize you’re alreadythe ‘something’ you spent years becoming. That shift is what this record sounds like. I tried to write like I used to – messy, drunk, chaotic. But it wasn’t fun anymore. Writing sober… Read more »
