From the rock anthems that followed us through Iron Man to the timeless classics we danced to with Baby Groot in Guardians Of The Galaxy, Marvel has given us incredible soundtracks to coincide with their phenomenal movies. However, with the next phase of the MCU underway, we couldn’t help but think about how things could be a tiny bit better if some bands and artists from our scene were recruited

If we had to pick one band from Canada keeping the scene alive, it would have to be Silverstein. No question. The post-hardcore band show no signs of slowing down after 10 albums over the course of two full decades and have influenced countless other people to start a career in music...

The incorporation of electronic sounds into alternative music is hardly a new phenomenon. In the mid-2000s, bands such as Cobra Starship and 3OH!3 made names for themselves in the scene with their synth-heavy infusions. And while the resulting "neon" era seemed to be short-lived, these artists were largely ahead of their time...

Who among us hasn't fantasized about living the rock star life? (Well, besides rappers.) Seriously though, who wouldn't want a gig like that? The tears of the bright-eyed are the lubrication that keeps the rock 'n' roll machine pumping along...

Nothing’s worse than a music video that thinks inside of the box. The best visuals have storylines, kooky characters or hilarious costumes—some of the musicians on this list even love wearing mustaches no matter the occasion. Most often, punk and rock artists are comfy with being nontraditional, and they’re usually creative when it comes to telling a story on screen.  From Foo Fig...

It’s no secret that the mainstream media scoffs at the words “Warped,” “scene” and “punk,” especially when they’re all lumped together. Bands from this ilk sometimes get nominated for major awards, but with the exception of acts such as Green Day, few actually win. Here are 14 bands who should’ve won a Gram... Read More ...

There’s no better time than Halloween to dress to impress (or terrify) your family and friends. Whether you’re donning a full face of makeup for a spooky skeleton or drawing inspiration from your favorite band, there’s really no wrong way to embrace Halloween costumes. Check out how...

Oh, America. So often you act like everything is boring and your cynicism blooms like pain-in-the-ass pollen making our eyes and nose run with great sadness. In an effort to show you how weird and/or wrong you can be, we asked all of the nominees for this year’s International Artist Award a quite crucial question: What was the greatest culture shock you encountered upon visiting the US for the fir
