Yellowcard made true on their intent to go where they’ve never gone before with Lift A Sail. Despite being around for almost 20 years now, the band still continues to challenge and reinvent themselves.
Nonpoint are back and out for blood, with a sound that’s more ferocious than ever. If they once paled in comparison to their counterparts, those days are long gone, and the proof comes in the form of their latest and greatest effort, The Return.
The Goo Goo Dolls dominated the 90s with their timeless single “Iris”. This week, Sleeping With Sirens provide a softer, lullaby rendition that nearly rivals the original.
Even if you’re convinced that a band changing their sound is the worst thing that’s ever happened to you, it’s perfectly natural for someone’s music to develop and shift from album to album. But every once in a while, those shifts are so dramatic that the early work ends up sounding like it was released by an entirely different band than the more recent material.

Losing yourself in a ten-hour marathon of your favorite tv show is always fun, but it’s even more fun when you suddenly wake from your reverie at the sounds of some unknown, perfect song emerging from the speakers. For this week’s Tuesday Ten, we asked our writers about ten songs they fell in love with after hearing them on tv.
New project from Good Charlotte’s Joel and Benji Madden, The Madden Brothers, proves yet again they’re brilliant songwriters who know just how to hook us in, whether the genre’s pop, folk, acoustic, or anything in between.
