Enter Shikari are heading to the US and Canada this month for a huge run of dates and festival appearances.
Single or not this Valentine’s Day, here is a mix of some of idobi Howl staff’s favorite songs to warm your cold, cynical hearts.
Today, we’ll rock with Renaissance Kids. The band’s second single from their debut EP, “I Can See Everything”, has just been taken to a new level of awesome with its very own music video.
Mayday Parade are streaming their newest song “Letting Go†over at Rolling Stone today. The song is from their upcoming album Black Lines.
Say Anything have announced their summer headlining tour with Modern Baseball, Cymbals Eat Guitars, and Hard Girls. If you’re still not convinced this is going to be one epic tour, check this out: the band will also be accompanied by a live string quartet and a full band onstage.

Mod Sun have announced a winter headlining tour set for February and March of next year.
The Devil Wears Prada hit the road in 2015 for the five-year anniversary of their Zombie EP, which they will be playing in its entirety each night along with more fan favorites. Born of Osiris, The Word Alive, and Secrets will join the band as support on the 25-date run across North America.
