10 of the wildest ways musicians ended up with tattoos
There are two types of people in this world: those who plan their tattoos at length and those who just go for whatever. Not so surprisingly, the latter tend to walk out with the best stories. Post Malone turned some heads this past August when he walked out of his dentist’s office with a new tattoo. As […]
20 albums you won’t believe are turning 10 in 2021
2011, like the years that preceded it, gave us a number of great alternative albums. But can you believe that 2021 is going to bring their 10-year anniversaries? Just like the 2000s came to pass in the blink of an eye, so did the last decade. And so we’re left soaking in nostalgia and wondering where the […]
QUIZ: Which legendary 2000s pop-punk guitarist are you the most like?
What is pop punk without its guitarists? Really just some angsty spoken word over punchy drums and a bassline. Let’s be honest: We’d still probably listen to it, but it wouldn’t be nearly as good. We may like to focus on vocals and lyrics when it comes to channeling our 2000s nostalgia. However, the guitarists […]
10 Spotify hacks that you’ll wish you knew about earlier
Scene kids usually know how to master technology. From coding Myspace profiles to pulling music off LimeWire (while inevitably giving our computers viruses), we had it all down. So why should Spotify be any different? All right, we’re not going to rank the streaming service up there with its predecessors in terms of complexity. All things considered, […]
QUIZ: Can you figure out the album by just the character on the cover?
Did anyone else spend the bulk of their scene days meticulously adding album art to their iTunes catalog? No, just us? Album covers are particularly poignant sources of 2000s nostalgia—and not just because our screen obsessions started around that time. Rather, they gave us visuals (and even characters) to associate with the music that we loved most. […]
QUIZ: Can you remember which band sings these 2010s pop-punk lyrics?
Pop punk‘s not dead! Do we have to scream it or should we just let the bands of the last decade speak for themselves? Despite the genre losing the mainstream popularity it had in the 2000s, the 2010s gave us some serious hits. Between the persistence of favorites such as All Time Low and new […]
QUIZ: Which emo band are you most like?
As the saying goes, “You are what you eat.” So, after years of digesting emo music, is it any surprise that we resemble our favorite bands in personality? We can assume that anyone opening this page has had an emo phase in some capacity. But with an abundance of different bands and eras to shape […]
10 underrated songs from 2000s bands that are just as good as their hits
The 2000s scene nostalgia is real. However, while our “phases” may have never ended, we tend to look back on the era with a limited scope. It’s no wonder that popular tracks by favorites such as Three Days Grace and Linkin Park stand at the forefront of our memories. After all, we could barely turn on […]
QUIZ: Can you remember the lyrics to these classic 2006 anthems?
Flashback to 2006. Boys Like Girls just dropped their debut album (feel old?). You’re copying and pasting lyrics from a shady website into every song in your iTunes catalog. Most of them are wrong. We’ve come a long way since the widespread use of smartphones took hold. Now, if we’re lucky, Spotify will do the dirty work for […]
