Brooklyn-based band Local Weatherman has new music to share! Titled Right One, the five-track EP follows the band’s breakout album of 2023 — although this time dripping with emo-tinted introspection. It’s melancholic, remorseful… all the makings of a good ‘sad boy’ saga. Relationships are tricky, especially when you know you’re the problem. Right One chronicles […]
Nashville is a city that has never been short on storytellers, but the band MNERVA (comprised of duo Matt Wagner and Eric Vatima) is working hard to go against the typical grain. With From Beginning To End, they deliver a debut album that feels less like a collection of random songs and more like a […]
They say ‘third time’s a charm’, but in the case of Babe Haven’s third 2025 performance at Nashville’s Blue Room, it’s been nothing but charm — each time. If you can believe it, this was supposed to be their fourth time in Nashville this year, if it hadn’t been for a cancelled Jhorts Fest appearance. […]
Manchester post punk legends The Chameleons are back with new recorded work for the first time in 24 years. The reason behind the resurfacing? The abysmal state of current affairs — particularly of Western civilizations. “I just see too many echoes of the 1930s in what’s been going on in the world,” says lead singer […]
Silverstein’s 25 Years of Noise Tour had already run for two legs and was just starting its third at House of Blues Cleveland — and the first show was one for the books. Not only was the venue one of the best I have been to, but this show was one of the best I […]
The Mummfest Tour put together three bands across three genres… I wasn’t sure how it was going to work, yet it managed to make sense in the end! The first band onstage at St. Andrews Hall in Detroit stop was Platinum Moon. This group of five is young, but definitely have old souls with overt […]
A Day To Remember returned to one of their favorite venues — Gallagher Square in San Diego, CA — as part of their Maximum Fun Tour on October 23rd, bringing their favorite co-headliner Yellowcard along for truly maximum fun.

The House of Blues Anaheim was revived with the 2000s emo scene as The Used brought their 25th Anniversary Tour for three nights, celebrating their albums that helped shape the entire scene. Each show highlighted a different album: Night One brought forth their deeply personal 2002 self-titled debut, the third night was reserved for their […]
Santa Ana’s Observatory Festival Grounds was fired up as The Story So Far wrapped up their fall tour, bringing along a stacked lineup featuring Pain of Truth, Origami Angel, and Neck Deep.

Scream for me, Los Angeles! Thunder roared over Los Angeles on Sunday evening as Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson and the House Band From Hell concluded their final date on The Mandrake Project Tour.

My final concert at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater this summer turned out to be one of the best shows of the season. It was a hot night, featuring an unexpectedly cohesive lineup of Apocalyptica, Lindsey Stirling, and Halestorm. Starting first was the Finnish cello metal group, Apocalyptica, who set a bizarrely powerful tone for the […]
Bill f*ckin Murray. Who doesn’t love this man?? The guy is a comic icon, the epitome of acting success, a golfer, a writer… and he leads a band? This I had to see. And, apparently, so did the rest of San Diego. Performing at The Sound in Del Mar (like literally within the Del Mar […]
On a warm Orange County night, The Observatory in Santa Ana turned into a listening party of soul and lowrider oldies. Fans from across southern California got to see the queen of modern soul herself, Trish Toledo, in a show that was like a Friday night cruise. SoCal group The Charities opened up the night. […]
A lot changes when you move to a big city… and there’s no bigger city with more opportunities to grow or get lost (or both) than the Big Apple. Laveda — after relocating to Queens from their hometown of Albany — offers a much grittier sound in their third album Love, Darla: a 10-track fever […]
