10 Nineties Emo Albums You Should Hear
I'll admit it: I've been a bad emo kid. Like a lot of millennials, I sincerely thought that emo started in the 2000s, when bands like Taking Back Sunday and Aiden appeared on the scene. However, when I did some research, I learned that emo's roots go all the way back to the mid-eighties.

Brian D'Ambrosio interview
Driven To Keep Creating: A Life of William “Bear” Rinehart By Brian D'Ambrosio Son of a preacher, William Rinehart grew up in Seneca, South Carolina, at the high foothills of the Appalachians. His mother taught piano lessons. His father played the trumpet. Music was a mixture of gospel, rural hillbilly, bluegrass, and rock and roll, all slammed together. At age 13, his job on the weekends was to vacuum the old ugly carpet at the church and he liked it when the congregation left their instruments strewn about. In between spells of cleaning, he would pick up a guitar and study the sheet notes.

Summer Without a Soundtrack: Why 2025 Feels Like ‘Brain Rot Season’
Every summer has a mood. In some years, it’s defined by a blockbuster movie, a chart-topping anthem, or even a cultural trend that captures the collective imagination. Think of the era of “Hot Girl Summer,” or the way Barbie and Oppenheimer collided to create the “Barbenheimer” trend in 2023. These moments weren’t just fun; they were shared cultural connections that gave summer its flavor.

mgk's new album
I love Machine Gun Kelly. I think I have about 60 of his songs saved to my Spotify right now. My partner says he fell off and sold out but I strongly disagree with him. He just released a new album on August 8th titled "Lost Americana" after his break-up with Megan Fox and let's just say I am here for it.

I Love Rock and Roll
I Love Rock and Roll The first time I heard We Will Rock You, I was twelve years old and sitting on my uncle’s worn leather couch. He had a record player that looked ancient to me—heavy, wooden, smelling faintly of dust and time. He placed the vinyl on the turntable, the faint crackle of static filled the air, and then it happened

OF LIMBO Have Leveled Up With New "Unplugged" LP
Long Beach, CA Rockers OF LIMBO have just released their new “Unplugged” album, which shows a deeper, more thoughtful side of the band. They have built a reputation of performing over-the-top, rowdy and fun live shows with their high energy version of heavier rock. This new LP showcases a more intimate and contemplative side, and they show growth and are leveling up - by exhibiting how broad a range they have beyond writing and performing hard rock bangers. The album showcases a quieter acoustic sound with a mix of original songs and 3 covers of classic tracks. They produced and mixed this set of songs at their home studio, and had it mastered at Long Beach Mastering by Brian Frederick.
