New Music Video: Explosive Windwaker Anthem “SIRENS”

It's rare for a new band to make me immediately feel nostalgic towards their music--but that's exactly what Windwaker did with their anthemic new single, "SIRENS". Listening to Windwaker's music for the first time made me feel like I was sixteen again, but in all the best ways. It's almost as if they took everything that I loved about a typical Warped Tour lineup and distilled it down, yet still made it sound fresh somehow. See for yourself-- Catch the video for "SIRENS" by Windwaker on YouTube now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZr1Vr7TvZw There's something deliciously melodic about "SIRENS" that I can't get enough of. However, don't let the contagious melodies fool you--this song is just as hard and in-your-face as others within metalcore-and-related spaces. Spe...

Candid ‘WHAM!’ Doc Celebrates Career in Their Own Words (Review)

British duo Wham! were one of the biggest pop acts on the 1980s, selling over 30 million records worldwide. Andrew Ridgeley and George Michael in Wham! Courtesy of Netflix © 2023 Childhood best friends George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley grew up outside of London and bonded over their love of music. After starting out in a ska band, they began writing and recording the early songs that would turn in to Wham!'s first album, "Fantastic." Those early tracks contained a slice of social commentary that got them noticed in the music press. Despite initially flailing on the UK charts, a last-minute booking on Top Of The Pops in 1982 to perform "Young Guns (Go For It!)" was a game changer. https://youtu.be/6_MhjfgeC44 They had 6 #1 singles in England and 3 in the United States in...

The Frst is Bringing the Heat this Summer with “Bruce Lee,” ft. Kellin Quinn & Bronnie (INTERVIEW)

Our favorite Nashville-based alt rockers, The Frst, are back again this summer with another banger: “Bruce Lee."
