Say Anything is a band that you can’t appropriately compare to any other band. Perhaps you could attempt to use metrics like ticket sales or song charting, but certainly not in any tangible sense of emotion, delivery, or downright weirdness. Say Anything kicked the doors down when they entered the scene with a huge “Fuck You” to any preconceived notion of what a “punk” or “emo” band should be. They didn’t give a shit about being a cog in the music industry machine—in fact, they were pretty loud about their despise for it. They wanted to share their passion for… Read more »
It seems indicative of U.S. divorce trends that we could reasonably add National Ex-Spouse Day to the calendar between the bookends of April Fool’s Day and 4/20. Lo and behold, April 14 stands as the designated date for reflection on the heels of romantic dissolution. Officially, it’s a day to assuage anger and practice forgiveness—but let’s be real here: that’s about as engaging as a rainy day lecture on the history of watching paint dry. In the interest of feeding our delusion of music being a cure-all, we’ve opted for a decidedly more “teenage angst” approach in celebrating the sanctioned… Read more »

With heavy riffs, melodically strong vocals, plus a dash of dark realism in the lyrics, the four-piece act displays that they’re better than ever.

Super Bowl LVIII is on Sunday, February 11, with the San Fransisco 49ers returning to face the Kansas City Chiefs after their 2020 defeat. While football isn’t everyone’s forte, hanging with the homies for a party with it on in the background is pretty fun, especially if you’re queuing up sports-related tunes. While Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift probably don’t have these bands on their Super Bowl playlist, we sure do. Here are some of our favorite acts that channel their jock side through sports-related band names. Yellowcard Referencing a different kind of football, the iconic band behind “Ocean Avenue”… Read more »
