With The Punches Deliver With New EP Discontent

After more than nine years, the beloved pop-punk band With The Punches is back. They've delivered with the release of their new EP Discontent. They'll be supporting the album with a run of shows that includes an appearance on the Mutant League Records 10th Anniversary tour. The July 2nd date features performances from Settle Your Scores, Chief State and Wilmette! at Subterranean in Chicago. With The Punches initially formed in 2008 before going on hiatus a few years later. They released three EPs and one full-length album during their initial run as a band. Despite their extended performing hiatus, they never stopped writing music. According to guitarist Dustin Wallace, they'd write and pass a demo around every few weeks. There wasn't any real sense of urgency to it with band membe...

Sick Puppies Bassist Emma Anzai Joins Evanescence

Alt-rockers Evanescence has announced a few tweaks to their lineup. In the wake of the recently announced departure of longtime guitarist Jen Majura, they've found an in-house replacement on guitar while tapping Sick Puppies bassist Emma Anzai to join the band on bass guitar. In a recent social media post, it was revealed that Tim McCord will be taking over guitar duties. He became an official member of Evanescence in 2007 and has been holding it down on bass ever since.

New Mayday Parade Single Released Ahead Of Busy Summer Tour

Anthemic New Single From 408 Features Underoath Vocalist

The Alternative/pop-punk foursome 408 are back with a brand new video for "U 2". The anthemic new single features Aaron Gillespie from Underoath. It's the second single off their upcoming album Out Of It and will be released by Regime Music Group and BreakSilence Recordings. 408 made waves earlier this year when they dropped "Mark Hoppus". The lead single from Out Of It even caught the attention of the Blink 182 frontman himself. We're really liking what we've heard from this band and hope the special guests continue. Although, they undoubtedly have the chops to stand on their own too. The album is due out later this year so stay tuned for a release date sometime soon. Out of It was recorded with producer/engineer Andrew Wade and Andy Karpovck (A Day To Remember) at The Audio Co...

Coheed and Cambria Release Energetic New Single “Comatose”

Coheed and Cambria have released a brand new single in the form of "Comatose". They've continued to pick up momentum ahead of the release of their highly anticipated new album. Vaxis II: A Window of the Waking Mind will be released on June 24th. Credit: Alexandra Gavillet Just to be completely upfront, a bit of a confession is necessary. As a longtime fan of Coheed and Cambria, it's difficult to cover this topic with impartiality. But it really feels like they're releasing some of the best music of their career. Many bands, quite frankly, run out of ideas after a few records. But this dynamic quartet continues to innovate and push things forward. "Comatose" is an up-tempo, high-energy song that leans on Coheed's classic pop-punk roots. It's about folding under pressure and wanti...
