When Marina City wasn’t busy recording a live EP, comprised of new and old songs, in front of a live audience, they gave our studios a visit and performed a couple songs for idobi Sessions.
idobi photographer Megan Leetz covered Say Anything and mewithoutYou at Concord Music Hall in Chicago.
“Like the ocean breeze you came along, to lift my sails, to take me home.” Something tells us the pop punk demigods aren’t happy with the state of the genre today, because this year all of our favorite punk as f*ck bands are coming back our way. From Good Charlotte to American Hi-Fi to Blink 182, the forefathers of this great scene are calling us home. The latest addition to the lineup is mid-2000s act Hit The Lights, with their new EP Just To Get Through To You. One of the last bands to keep the genre afloat in its… Read more »
After The Ready Set’s first label release, 2010’s I’m Alive, I’m Dreaming, we waited four long years for another full length from the electro-pop solo act. During that time, we were oh so patient for an album that 2014’s The Bad And The Better didn’t quite become, but now that I Will Be Nothing Without Your Love is here, our perseverance is finally being rewarded.

Manchester’s The 1975 aren’t known for common sounds, but on their latest release I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it they take that to another level. Employing a myriad of genres should make for chaos, but their shared dreamy indie-electronic undertones give the album a united front. Maybe it’s a mess, but it’s a well done one.
It can be tough to get a sense of a band from an EP. Five or six songs is usually not enough to get acquainted, to see their range, and to pick a favorite song.

Toronto‘s Like Pacific is pissed off. On their first full length, the band finds solid ground to prove themselves. Distant Like You Asked is full of uptempo anthems, lyrical spite, and overall heart.
