LØLØ has been absolutely unstoppable over the last few years. Since 2019, she has been boldly developing her sound, sharpening her style, and bringing back old-school heartbreak.

Canadian alt-rockers, The Beaches have dropped a brand new single today, “Blame Brett” and announced their forthcoming sophomore LP Blame My Ex due out September 15th. The new track is extremely cheeky to say the least. The Beaches give a new perspective to the break-up anthem by being equally parts funny, mournful, and scathing. They sing “So sorry in advance / Before you take off your pants / I wouldn’t let me meet your friends / I wouldn’t let me near your dad”. They continue with the line “Don’t blame me, blame Brett / Blame my ex”. Pretty hilarious right?… Read more »
The Legacy pop-rock band, Mayday Parade have gifted fans with a brand new song “More Like A Crash” today. Last night the group premiered the track right here on Idobi Radio for the very first time courtesy of taking over our “Fresh At Five”. The band whose discography is often coined as an “emotion” all in its own right has returned with another pull-at-your-heart-strings banger. The track is super upbeat, and certainly drives with catchy guitars and sing-along vocals, but remains very much in tune with the intense feelings a classic Mayday Parade song invokes. Guitarist, Alex Garcia shares on… Read more »
K.Flay talks us through her latest single, “Raw Raw,” vulnerability, her unexpected hearing loss and her long-awaited fifth studio album.
Beloved emo rock icons Say Anything emerged from hiatus last Friday for their first show in nearly five years.

Say Anything has always featured a revolving door of musicians surrounding founding members Max Bemis… Read more »
As Ice Nine Kills have kicked off their UK and European tour with Metallica, which will be followed up by the group’s own headline Wurst Vacation Tour, the scream team’s guitarist Dan Sugarman has made the difficult decision to step away from the band for the moment. In a statement Sugarman shared on his social media, he explains, “I don’t really know how to do this, I don’t really know how to say this. All I know is that I wouldn’t be living my dream day in and day out if it wasn’t for you. And believe me when I… Read more »
Say Anything are back together and have released a brand new track, “Psyche!” Today. They are a band that have always done things differently than everyone else. They stuck out like a sore thumb in the scene since their inception in a beautifully unique and transparently broken way. Max Bemis is a genius to say the least and you won’t find another project quite like his. Hell, their first full-length album, …Is A Real Boy, was intended to be a performative musical that transformed into a two-part melodic odyssey. With spoken word interludes, triumphant and drastic sonic changes within each… Read more »
