You’ve been crossing off the days on your calendar for months now, and the time is finally almost here – the 2013 edition of the Vans Warped Tour kicks off this Saturday. With so many bands to check out and only so many hours in a day, our writing team has put together a list of our must-see artists on this year’s Warped – some you already love, some you may not have heard yet, but all you should make an effort to see this summer.
HeartSupport, a non-profit organization founded by Jake Luhrs of August Burns Red, have announced their partnership with Beau Bokan of BlessTheFall. They will be doing signings at Warped Tour this summer as well as special meet and greets, and you can find out more details by clicking “Read More.”
After releasing a few solid EP’s that teetered between emo and hardcore, Daylight have debuted their first LP Jar, defining their shamelessly 90’s alt-inspired sound.
idobi writer Catherine Yi caught up with lead singer Nathan Hussey of All Get Out at their recent show in Los Angeles to talk about the constant grind of touring, dealing with tough crowds, freestyle lyricism and more.
As their comeback album, Save Rock and Roll is probably one of the most important albums in Fall Out Boy’s career. They have evolved into a slick, complex powerhouse of a band, and they prove it by unleashing all their talent on this new album.
idobi editor Eleanor Grace caught up with From Indian Lakes’ Joey Vannucchi and Rick Gutierrez at the Toronto stop of their tour with Lydia to talk about the band’s latest record, their decision to stay independent, the climate of the music industry for independent bands, and much more.
Blink-182 have proven through their latest EP that, while they may not be as angsty or unruly as they were a decade ago, they are still the same musicians, simply growing up and moving forward with their sound.
The dense fog couldn’t stop show-goers from lighting up with smiles as they waited in line outside The Paramount in Huntington, NY on January 12th.
Lost in a never-ending cacophony of American-inspired guitar squeals, hammering drum beats, and amped-up vocals, the third release from the Swedish-based Her Bright Skies is an angsty young adult power piece whose volume is fit for an arena but whose calamitous structure and predictable composition should be left in the garage.

Telle Smith of The Word Alive at 9:45pm ET
Pop Punk Hour with Ottawa’s We Were Sharks at 11pm ET
