Royal & The Serpent is continuing to navigate her way out of darkness. On her new 'Happiness is an Inside Job' EP, Royal is reaching new heights and positivity.

Girlpool are entering a new era in their career. Composed of duo Avery Tucker and Harmony Tividad, the band's Los Angeles roots and DIY ethos undoubtedly shine through in much of their earlier releases. However, their highly anticipated fourth album, Forgiveness, out today, builds upon this foundation to create a work that fully embodies the personal and sonic growth of both artists...

It’s been a hot minute since Polyphia last unleashed their fiery juggernaut instrumentals into the world. But following 2018’s New Levels New Devils, the Texas four-piece have been tinkering away on their mythical fourth album. A seemingly gargantuan task, the fearsome band have been creating more than ever, with guitarist Tim Henson even branching out into the YouTube world to offer up sharp, min

Last year, Zephani Jong went from a bedroom songwriter to touring with Waterparks after securing herself as a social media savant with brutally honest and witty observations. It’s these same homed-in exposés she’s channeling within her lo-fi pop tunes as Zeph. Finding more fans...

LP has had a wild career. One where she’s amassed millions of streams, most notably on her 2015 breakout hit “Lost On You.” But prior to this came several major-label signings, a plethora of songwriting for other artists and a handful of her own albums. With her powerho...

Coffee makes the world go round. We all rely on it most days, so we thought we’d do the right thing and let you know which of your favorite bands match with your go-to coffee shop drink. Drip coffee – Jimmy Eat World You really can’t go wrong with a drip coffee. No nonsense, a g...

Pop punk is ever evolving—from blink-182 and New Found Glory to All Time Low and Fall Out Boy, a lot of iconic acts are associated with the genre. Everyone thinks they know pop punk, but do you have what it takes to score 100 percent on our quiz? Try ...

If there’s one thing you can’t accuse George Watsky of, it’s not being honest. Since gaining momentum back in 2012 after his “Pale Kid Raps Fast” video went viral, he’s been littering elements of his life, laying them bare for all to see. Whether it’s those fast raps that ...

It’s finally that time of year again—pick up a hefty pumpkin, watch your favorite horror flick and decide who (or what) you’re going to dress up as. Rather fittingly, the mystical aura that surrounds zodiac signs is perfectly suited for Halloween. Both lie deeply ...

Bands come and go. As much as we’d love our favorite bands to stick around forever, always gifting us more musical treats, there’s often a lot more at play than just the creative force. They can break up due to personal or creative conflicts, a lack of viability in being together or slightly more sadly, the members simply don’t want to be together anymore. Read more: What...

Very few music partnerships are as fabled as that of Marilyn Manson and Trent Reznor. From Reznor signing Manson and helping produce his first two albums, to its well-documented demise, the disintegration of the partnership of two of the ’90s darkest and creative minds was a sad, sorry state of affairs. Rea...

Home is a pretty broad term that means a lot of things to a lot of different people. Luckily, music often gives us a chance to process these feelings through lyrics that hit…well, home.

You’ll be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn’t enjoy at least one blink-182 song. For well over two decades, they’ve been bringing us albums filled with tracks that remind us of life and growing up—the good, the bad and the ugly. We’ve seen them go ...

Growing up we’ve all tried to emulate some aspect of a band that we’ve fallen for. Even our parents would’ve gone for a hairstyle or wardrobe that echoed that of their musical infatuations(as much as we like to disagree, they were cool once, too). It’s a fact tha ...

The items on this list are ones that not only sit pretty on the higher end of the price range—but also are just plain ridiculous. From expensive-as-hell My Chemical Romance action figures to a KISS pinball machine, sure, we’d love everything on this list, but for now we’ll just consider this a completely unattainable wishlist.

Once upon a time, fan clubs were run via postal services, paying a certain amount of money for various gifts and letters from bands. Then the internet happened, and forums began with pages and pages of like-minded people sharing their opinions, recent acquisitions and meeting-the-band stories ...

Music documentaries are great, aren’t they? They’re a chance to really see how your favorite bands do their thing. When done right, they offer a candid look at people we all admire. However, some docs either don’t even see the light of day or actually make their way out into the world, but fall out of the consciousness of the music community. Here we’ve colle...

Back in 2005, the unthinkable happened: The members of Blink-182 went their separate ways and left us with as many questions as there were cloudy expectations. Their self-titled album was their most mature and experimental work, and the evolution from teen angst-ridden pop punk and dick jokes was a shock, but it was welcomed with open arms because it showed Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge and Travis Bark
