Music videos are an interesting art form — they can be beautiful interpretations that reveal the inner meanings of the music, or they can make so little sense that they leave your brain feeling like scrambled eggs. We pay tribute to some of the biggest culprits in the latter category in this week’s Tuesday Ten.
Australian alt-rock band New Empire are slowly yet steadily breaking out internationally. Their résumé already includes a stint on Warped Tour and opening for bands such as Simple Plan and Neon Trees. idobi senior writer Catherine Yi caught up with guitarist Kyle Lane to discuss the new record, signing with a label, and finding success overseas.
Step right up, because it’s time to call the rookies up from the bench for Warped season. In this week’s Tuesday Ten, we’ve put together an idobi All-Star Rookie Squad of artists you absolutely cannot miss as they make their first official appearances on Warped Tour this summer.
Mike “Fish†Fishkin, of idobi Radio’s Gone Fishkin, talks Warped Tour with former All Time Low tour manager and new idobi hire, Matthew Flyzik. Flyzik elaborates on everything from advice for bands on their first Warped summer to memories of the tour growing up.
