Audio 23 might actually be one of the greatest songs ever written. 2 more days…

I’ve watched @anberlin grow from energetic up-and-comers to a full fledged rock staple. Vital is beautiful, stunning, and polished to a perfect sheen. (Taken with Instagram)

i’ll post my other warped tour pics later. but for now, here’s one from my phone.. MEMPHIS MAY FIRE’s MATTY MULLINS tearing faces off. i’ve seen dozens of warped tour pictures now, and time and again matty mullins is probably one of the most iconic silhouettes of the tour, with his dope combover and perpetual […]

okay: confide, easily one of the most underrated bands of the genre. and they’re already gone.. bummer. i know their cover of Such Great Heights was a bit divisive, but overall confide was an extremely talented young band. i know joel piper’s got his own thing going [and a ton of love for it too!] […]

finally. FINALLY. you don’t want to know/won’t believe how many stores i had to go to to freaking get my hands on this. i’m also disappointed by how many store employees had no idea what i was asking for. cheers,

fifteen [FIFTEEN!] years into their career, yellowcard still has it, and has it in SPADES. great new song Always Summer off the august 14th LP, Southern Air. previously the band had released a lyric video, but they premiered an actual music video today, and it gives me chills how much i want to be somewhere […]

of mice & men’s new track from the upcoming 2-disc The Flood Reissue is below. i’m a little torn about austin carlile. i can’t deny that he’s a great screamer, and he’s decidedly magnetic. people are drawn to him like they are craig owens… but carlile has a bit of baggage. he’s been kicked out […]

#1 band that needs to get back together and do something big: @saosin. for most, saosin was first famous because living legend anthony green was in it. this was  before circa survive, obviously, and at the time the five-piece was something along the lines of post-hardcore: moderate amounts of high screaming, but primarily a hard […]

steady my heart, from kari jobe’s brand new album, where i find You. i’ve loved kari jobe for a long time. revelation song? come on. this new track is strangely taylor swift-esque with a touch of Jesus take the wheel, i think. i also think it’s awesome that there is a rise in well-known, strong […]

a few thoughts on skrillex’s new EP, bangarang. i was iffy on it at first, but it’s really growing on me. i put skrillex’s ‘more monsters and nice sprites EP’ on my list of ‘2011 must haves’ as a runner up, simply because it wasn’t a real album and barely  an EP in its own […]
