L.S. Dunes Released an Epic Video for “Grey Veins” + US Summer Tour Dates

L.S. Dunes, a 2000's emo kid's dream "anti-supergroup," just released a new music video for "Grey Veins," a song from their 2022 debut album, Past Lives. The post-hardcore band's debut was met with critical acclaim--and this music video is another testament to their boundless creativity. Saturated with color, and a fun, satirical cinematic call-outs, this Lego-filled "Grey Veins" video is a must-watch for post-hardcore newcomers and L.S. Dunes fans alike.

Blame My Youth Drops “Stupid Human” Single And Video

Photo Credit: Hannah Edelman LA-based rock quartet Blame My Youth has been making waves with its energetic performances and chart-topping releases.

[Interview] Shut Up & Play Some Pop Punk: A Chat with Mikei Gray of The Frst

Given the fact that that the When We Were Young festival sold out in mere hours (and now has not only a 2nd, but a 3rd date), it shouldn't be surprising that pop punk is here to stay.
