chloe moriondo wanted to be completely honest on ‘Blood Bunny’
For a person who just graduated high school, booked a headline tour and released their first major-label debut all in the same year, chloe moriondo is admirably calm. “I’m just chilling!” she says, confessing that she got out of bed at noon: “I’m a little gremlin,” she smiles.

Creeper’s Will Gould never expected his Salem side project to be so massive
Last October, in a brief interim between strict U.K. lockdowns, Creeper’s Will Gould played four shows in two cities with his side project, Salem.

Op-Ed: In defense of Fall Out Boy’s ‘Folie À Deux’
When Fall Out Boy released their fourth record, Folie À Deux, in 2008, they were no strangers to pissing off fans and baffling critics. Their stylistic changes, both musically and aesthetically, from album to album are notable and clear: Take This To Your Grave is a pure, if not standout, pop-punk record; From Under The […]
Op-Ed: 'M A N I A' is Fall Out Boy’s best album in a decade
Fall Out Boy are fully prepared for you to hate Mania (stylized M A N I A), their seventh studio album. Their pre-release press tour has felt apologetic: At shows and in interviews, the band have reiterated that this album will require a few listens to get into. It isn’t that they have no faith […]
