Mayday Parade
There’s a lot for Mayday Parade to celebrate these days. The Tallahassee, Florida-formed quintet recently wrapped a career-defining tour marking two decades together, one that saw more than 70,000 fans pack sold-out venues to celebrate their storied catalog. They performed a triumphant main-stage set at the 30th anniversary of the Vans Warped Tour, a full-circle moment for a band that made their name selling self-released CDs in those sweltering parking lots nearly 20 years ago. Their landmark debut LP, A Lesson In Romantics, turned 18, still beloved for its iconic singles like the platinum-certified “Jamie All Over” and gold-certified “Miserable At Best.” And the group released Sweet, the first in a self-released three-album series that reaffirmed just how creatively energized they still remain.
Now, with Sad, the second installment in that trilogy, Mayday Parade dive deeper into the emotional nuance that’s long defined their work. The emotional journey found on songs like “Under My Sweater,” “It’s Not All Bad” and “Promises” is the beating heart of the band, the reason fans proudly wear MAYDAY PARADE IS AN EMOTION shirts and hoodies like a badge of honor. It’s the compass that’s guided the band through their entire career – especially during this three-album arc – pushing them to chase the next great idea, whether it arrives in a sudden spark or takes decades to fully round into form. It’s all in the songs, and when it’s right, you’ll know it when you hear it.

Dropkick MurphysTo/Die/For is a Finnish gothic metal band. The band began in early 1999, when the musicians from the hard rock band Mary-Ann (which had existed since 1993) decided to change their musical style to gothic metal, modifying the band's name as well. In July of that year, after recording a self-financed EP entitled Deeper Sin, they signed a record deal with Spinefarm Records.
Their debut album - All Eternity - was released in Finland by the end of that year and the band then signed contracts with Nuclear Blast (for Europe) and Pony Canyon (for Japan). In 2000, the band toured Europe together with Dark Tranquillity, Sentenced and In Flames. Epilogue was released in 2001 and was followed by a tour with Lacrimosa.
The album Jaded was released in 2003 and in August of that year, vocalist Jarno Perätalo left the band. He assembled a new band named Tiaga, integrated by former members of To/Die/For. However, in 2004, Jarno Perätalo and the band Tiaga took the name To/Die/For for themselves, releasing the album IV in 2005.
To/Die/For is currently in the studio recording their fifth album, due for release in October 2006.
To/Die/For is currently without a label and searching for one. -

Black Veil BridesIn an era when rock music is regularly declared “dead,” Black Veil Brides music videos have been viewed over half a billion times. The band (and its members) Instagram and Twitter accounts command over 10 million followers between them.
With a rightful reverence for the pop-cultural icons of the past, the young outfit has nevertheless fashioned their own collective future, with relentless fury. In the hearts and minds of their fans, Black Veil Brides represents an unwillingness to compromise and a resistance to critics (personal and professional), fueled by the same fire as the group’s own heroes, the iconoclasts whose creative output, once dismissed, is now canonized.

New Found Glory
It’s been decades since New Found Glory's likeness was chiseled onto pop-punk’s Mount Rushmore, but as the quartet, formed in Coral Springs, Florida, in 1997, approach their landmark 30th anniversary, they still have a lot to say.
“We wanted to make something that really focused on how lucky we are,” guitarist Chad Gilbert explains of Listen Up!, NFG’s 11th studio album and first release for Pure Noise Records. “We’ve all gone through serious stuff in our lives, and I think the lyrics on this record are more meaningful and purposeful than ever. It’s a positive outlet that hopefully keeps people going.”
The album’s spirit is indeed a testament to resilience, shaped not only by Gilbert’s ongoing battle with an aggressive metastatic cancer but also the ever-evolving dynamic between him and his bandmates – vocalist Jordan Pundik, bassist Ian Grushka and drummer Cyrus Bolooki – as they continue to push each other creatively. It’s the same full-hearted sentiment that colored their 2023 acoustic EP, Make The Most Of It, here delivered in three-minute bursts of the band’s trademark pop-punk sound: the shiny melodies that launched them onto TRL in the early 2000s, the ghosts of the tight-knit punk and hardcore scenes they came up in as teenagers.
That kinetic energy informed Listen Up! from its earliest stages of the writing process, with Bolooki and Grushka traveling to Gilbert’s Nashville-area home to flesh out the songs the guitarist had been crafting. Sitting face to face with their instruments, the three fell into a rhythm of workshopping and arranging together, leaning into a riff-first mentality that harkened back to iconic songs like “My Friends Over You” and “All Downhill From Here” in what Bolooki calls a musical return to form.
“The album is nonstop riffs you can sing along to and air guitar with,” Gilbert says. “Back in the day, I’d write riffs and then we’d come up with melodies around them, but later the melodies came first and we’d have the music fit the melody. Now, the two are equally as important.”
“Being able to grab a guitar and jam these riffs with Ian and Chad with a second guitar in play, before I even picked up a drumstick, allowed for more creativity to come out in riffs and leads during the songwriting process,” Bolooki adds. “My musical background is a little more theory-based, and I think that helped bridge the gap between different musical ideas Chad had.”
True to their word, first single “100%” puts New Found Glory’s renewed approach on full display, an instant classic the group road-tested all summer on tour with The Offspring and Jimmy Eat World. Bursting with tightly wound guitar chugs and Pundik’s iconic timbre, the track is as much a love song as it is a renewed commitment from the band to its audience – now a multigenerational affair as era-defining tracks from gold and platinum albums like 2000’s New Found Glory, 2002’s Sticks And Stones and 2004’s Catalyst get the same fervent live response as the fan-favorite collection of covers like “Kiss Me” and “Let It Go.”
“The success of the Catalyst anniversary tour and seeing a whole new wave of young New Found Glory fans filled us with even more energy to make this record fresh and exciting,” Gilbert says. “It feels like there’s still room for us to bring in a new wave of fans to this genre.”
Elsewhere on the album, “Laugh It Off” trembles with the darkly hewn moodiness of Catalyst, “Treat Yourself” gallops with skate-punk fury and “Medicine,” which Pundik likens to Matthew Sweet’s brand of power-pop, provides a lighter musical moment. Make The Most Of It cut “Dream Born Again,” here in full-band form, sparkles with echoes of Sunny Day Real Estate, while the album-closing “Frankenstein’s Monster” reflects on Gilbert’s cancer journey over the last few years – a struggle that could have derailed the band but instead fueled the guitarist to carry his positivity and drive straight into the studio alongside producer Steve Evetts (Saves The Day, Lifetime) and NFG touring guitarist (and Four Year Strong frontman) Dan O’Connor, who joined the band in the studio for the first time.
“I was between cancer treatments making the record,” Gilbert explains. “I was pretty much dying again. I was going into the studio in the morning and sitting there with a 190, 200 blood pressure, going to the hospital, getting scans, going back to the studio, finishing a guitar track and then going home. I had some heart failure issues – all this fluid in my body and lungs – and we had to arrange the schedule so we could finish the album.”
“Despite everything Chad was going through, he would come in just ready to roll, and that set the tone for the record,” Pundik says, noting Gilbert pushed him to share more of the lyrics he’d been writing throughout the process. “Seeing him feeling positive and excited about the songs got us excited about it, and being in the studio every day together made the process really special. Recording is always a stressful thing because you’re trying to make the best album you can, but I think we all went in trying not to take it so seriously and just have fun with it.”
At this stage in their decorated career, New Found Glory’s goals are straightforward: keep inspiring the next generation of artists and continue writing songs that help their audience – and themselves – find strength, courage, and joy. The band has come a long way from their humble South Florida beginnings, as detailed on the Listen Up! standout “Beer And Blood Stains,” a nostalgic riff-factory detailing the band’s early battle scars at local clubs, where danger meant more than catching a stray elbow in the swirl of a circle pit. “Looking back, was it fun or crime?” Pundik muses on the track before elevating the album’s simple-yet-profound mission statement: “It’s good to be alive.”
“Obviously there’s the relationship to music, but we called the album Listen Up! because we’re trying to offer an album to fans that’s a little bit deeper, that asks them to listen to the words and the world around them,” Gilbert says. “I think this is the most honest and universally relatable record we’ve made in years – maybe ever.”

UnderoathUnderoath has been a formative voice in progressive, heavy rock for almost two decades. Today, they share their blistering new single “Damn Excuses” out on Fearless Records. This release marks the first new music from Underoath since 2018’s Grammy-nominated full-length, Erase Me, and launches a brand new chapter in the band’s career. “Damn Excuses” was completely self-recorded and produced at guitarist Tim McTague’s studio, Feral Sound, in Tampa, Florida. It evokes the beautiful chaos that so many fans have found special about Underoath for years while still managing to break through new sonic and emotional boundaries.
This far into their storied career, Underoath has unsurprisingly faced their fair share of adversity. Through the trials and tribulations, a commitment to their craft and a sense of accountability rooted in mutual respect for each other has ensured that each new chapter for the band continues to mold their legacy in a positive fashion. With their shared history of remarkable accolades and trying hardships continuing to shape who the individual members are as people, Underoath is still just scratching the surface of what they can accomplish as a band. There are few acts in the annals of rock history that can say their best work is still ahead of them almost two decades into their career. Fortunately, Underoath falls into that category. As the world opens back up in 2021, the band is deeply committed to living up to the high expectations that fans (and themselves) have come to expect for anything associated with the project. It will undoubtedly be something special to witness as this next chapter in the Underoath story manifests. -

Destroy Boys
The title of Destroy Boys’ new album, Funeral Soundtrack #4, might seem like a bit of playful irony but the California band is being quite literal. “Looking back, our first three albums marked the deaths of things,” says guitarist Violet Mayugba. “They were soundtracks to our funerals, whether they were for our ag es, our mental states. We’ve gone through a lot of changes as a band
and as people.”
Destroy Boys formed in 2015, when founding members Mayugba and Alexia Roditis were just 15
years old, and each release has marked a period of growth and change. “The first one was our
high school album,” Mayugba explains. “On the second record, we went to college and were
saying goodbye to our childhood. On the third one, we’d just gone through COVID and, speaking
for myself, I lost my entire sense of self and gained a new one.”
Now, at 24, Mayugba and Roditis are standing firmly on solid ground with their fourth album,
more resolute and confident than ever in their place as musicians. “With Funeral Soundtrack #4, I’m done being walked all over. I’m done being taken advantage of by people in the music industry and by people I date. I’m done doing what other people tell me to do,” Roditis says.
Funeral Soundtrack #4 was recorded over 2023 with Carlos de la Garza (Paramore, The Linda
Lindas, Best Coast) and pushes Destroy Boys into new sonic territories. It’s still grounded in the band’s punk rock roots but leans into the members’ more eclectic influences, like salsa and bossanova. de la Garza also helped highlight their gothier inspirations, like the Smiths, Cocteau Twins, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. Roditis’s voice, which was often buried in the chaos of their previous work, shines through more ever, and flexes an impressively wider range. “Something we’ve always prided ourselves on is making very clear ascensions and leaps with every record,” Mayugba says. “We’re in pursuit of that greatest, biggest sound.”
Themes of adulthood, maturity, and love run through
Funeral Soundtrack #4. Many of the album’s songs had been in the works for years, and fill in the gaps of Destroy Boys’ catalog. “It really feels like this album is a culmination of the last four years of writing music,” Roditis says. “Boyfeel,” a song Roditis started writing at 17, sees them exploring their evolving relationship with gender nonconformity, while “Shadow (I’m Breaking Down),” the band’s first song to chart on Alternative Radio, delves into the Jungian idea of the shadow self. “I’ve seen a lot of people on TikTok talking about confronting your shadow, but when you see stuff like that on the internet, it doesn’t go into the depths of that concept. I really wanted to put together my thoughts on the shadow side and also talk about mental health in a way that I haven’t heard in a song before,” they say. Standout single “Plucked” decisively proves Destroy Boys can craft a perfect rock hook, and Roditis belts out a Spanish love song on “Amore Divino.” Hardcore ripper “Beg for the Torture” marks the first song on which Mayugba and Roditis pull dual vocal duties, trading scathing verses back and forth, an approach which takes influence from Sleater Kinney. On “You Hear Yes,” the band teams up with fellow powerhouses, Scowl’s Kat Moss and Mannequin Pussy’s Marisa Dabice, to share experiences of male harassment. “It’s funny because we always used to get labeled as a feminist punk band, but we don’t actually sing about that very often,” Roditis says. “So on this record we wanted to make a very blatant fuck the patriarchy song.”
Destroy Boys have gained a ton of ground in the music scene over the last few years, touring with giants acts like Pierce the Veil, blink-182, and Alkaline Trio, and playing reputable festivals around the world, like Coachella, Riot Fest, and Pukkelpop. And they’ve done it all while vehemently kicking against the aspirational guilt that has historically been ingrained in the fabric of punk rock. “There’s so much shame in punk about wanting to succeed and wanting to
play music for the rest of your life,” Mayugba says. “And I feel like women in rock are especially shamed for that, where our pursuit of greatness is looked down upon even more so. And we reject that so outwardly. We’ve always wanted to be the biggest band ever. We don’t want to be a club band. We want that stadium sound.”
Funeral Soundtrack #4 captures Destroy Boys at their most evolved self, miles ahead of the scrappy, teenage sound that a new generation of rock fans fell in love with on their 2016 debut Sorry, Mom, but the record never loses the band's identity in the process.
“Funeral Soundtrack #4 is our best record yet, no question, but it’s still authentic,” Mayugba says. “It’s more presentable, it’s hookier, it’s more palatable, but it's also real Destroy Boys.”

MovementsMusic and emotion share a timeless physiological, psychological, and spiritual bond. A chord, a melody, or a lyric can lift spirits and inspire. Movements achieve that sort of reaction on their full-length debut, Feel Something [Fearless Records]. Threading together spacey guitars, evocative and introspective lyricism, ponderous spoken word, and tight songcraft, the Southern California quartet—Patrick Miranda [vocals], Ira George [guitar], Spencer York [drums], and Austin Cressey [bass]—immediately connect by opening up. That musical empathy quietly launched Movements on an upward trajectory in 2015. Formed by longtime friends, the group landed a deal with Fearless Records after just one local gig. Produced by Will Yip [Tigers Jaw, Title Fight, Turnover, Citizen], their debut EP, Outgrown Things, became a fan favorite. Acclaimed by the likes of Alternative Press and New Noise Magazine, songs like “Nineteen” and “Kept” each respectively amassed over 800K Spotify streams and counting as they have toured nonstop. Along the way, the boys started working on what would become Feel Something before returning to the studio with Yip in February 2017. In the sessions, their signature style crystallized and coalesced. Ultimately, Movements bring emotion to life in each note. -
The Starting LineThe Starting Line (TSL) is a four-piece pop punk band from the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area. They formed in 1999 as Sunday Drive and are signed to Virgin Records, and were previously signed to Drive-Thru and Geffen Records. In March 2008, the band announced that they are going on break for about three years in order for Vasoli to explore Person L, Matt and Tom to explore The 76, and Mike to spend time with his two daughters.
In 1999, the band that would become The Starting Line was initiated in Churchville, Pennsylvania via an AOL instant message from guitarist Matt Watts to vocalist/bassist Kenny Vasoli. It asked if the then fourteen-year-old Vasoli, who was at that time in a band called Smash Adams, was interested in "Jamming and shit", as the message title read. Only a few weeks later, Vasoli found himself rehearsing with his future bandmates Watts, guitarist Mike Golla and drummer Tom Gryskewicz. Soon, the band started touring under the name Sunday Drive, selling out home-made merchandise and a self-recorded demo cassette titled Four Songs. Their first official release was a three-way split with The Jimmy Tuesday Band and The Commercials contributing three songs each, released on KickStart Audio in 2000.
Sunday Drive was soon approached by We the People Records and asked to produce a recording session (the infamous We the People Records Sessions). Set for a release in December 2000, the twelve songs were initially planned to become the band's debut full-length With Hopes of Starting Over on We the People Records, but they ended up serving only as demos for tracks on future releases, as the band signed with Drive-Thru Records in April 2001. On Drive-Thru, they soon released their debut EP With Hopes of Starting Over. Yet, as the name Sunday Drive was already taken by a Christian rock band, they went on as The Starting Line.
On July 16, 2002, almost exactly one year after the release of their EP, the full-length Say It Like You Mean It followed. The songs ranged from energetic and fast-paced to melancholy and calm, dealing with performing on stage ("Given the Chance"), feeling homesick ("Left Coast Envy") and getting even with Vasoli's ex-girlfriend Karina ("Up & Go", "Hello Houston", among others). The hit single "The Best of Me" and its two music videos, as well as the second single "Leaving", received heavy radio and TV airplay, securing The Starting Line a spot on the Warped Tour.
Due to their desire to put out new material, the band decided to release an all-unplugged EP, recorded in three sessions over the following year. The first three songs (recorded in The Prize Fight's Bob Jones' bedroom in August 2002), the second session (recorded in Vasoli's basement in March 2003) and the last track (recorded on the band's touring bus in April 2003) became The Make Yourself at Home EP, released on November 25, 2003. The CD and the DVD version issued simultaneously, featuring an acoustic set performed live at Skate & Surf 2003 in Asbury Park, New Jersey, would be their last releases put out solely on Drive-Thru Records, as The Starting Line was signed by Geffen Records soon afterwards.
Their major label debut, Based on a True Story, came out in May 2005. Lyrically, the band dissociated themselves from the post-relationship formula that was predominant on their previous records. On this album, a lot of the songs (e.g. "Inspired By the $", "Autography" and "The B-List") were explicitly inspired by the band's disdain for their record label Geffen and its executives. The album was far more successful than the band's 2002 effort and sold 42,000 copies within its first week, as opposed to its predecessor's 11,000. The release was followed by the semi-headlining Nintendo Fusion Tour with Fall Out Boy, kicking off in September 2005. A few dates into the tour, The Starting Line were — at their request — released from their record deal with Geffen, and became free agents. In early January 2006, their signing with Virgin Records was announced. -

Magnolia ParkMAGNOLIA PARK have never been ones to settle for subtlety. Since forming in 2018, the Orlando, Florida-based quintet have, over and over again, proven themselves to be one of the most exciting and forward-thinking groups in the underground, spinning a chameleonic, genre-spanning sound that incorporates punk, rock, pop, hip-hop and metalcore into a dizzying, multisensory experience.
Blazing onto the scene with an insatiable social media work ethic and prolific musical output, their popular Halloween mixtapes, multi-part Eater EP series and full-length debut, Baku’s Revenge, cemented them not only as a playlist and For You Page favorite for millions of listeners around the world, but a must-see live act on tour with Simple Plan, Sum 41, A Day To Remember and the inaugural Summer School tour (where they served as a headliner), as well as major festivals like Reading and Leeds, When We Were Young, Sonic Temple and Welcome To Rockville.
Now, Magnolia Park – vocalist Joshua Roberts, guitarists Tristan Torres and Freddie Criales, drummer Joe Horsham and bassist Vincent Ernst – are set to unleash their most ambitious effort yet: VAMP (Epitaph Records), a neo-gothic concept album rich in world-building and gripping storytelling. Culling influence from the band’s favorite anime including the long-running Vampire Hunter D, along with inspiration from iconic works like Star Wars, Dracula and Joseph Cambell’s legendary monomyth, Vamp unravels an ominous journey through Nocturne Nexus, where rulers and rebels battle with the future hanging in the balance.
The project’s roots took place in Australia, where, after performing triumphant sets to thousands at the 2023 Good Things Festival, the band was more encouraged than ever to chase a bold, new, musical direction: one that found them tapping into the heavier influences they’d begun dabbling in on Halloween Mixtape II, adding a ferocious bite to their trademark pop-punk-meets-hip-hop sound.
“Seeing the crowd react to our heavier songs was really eye-opening for us,” says Torres, referencing “Animal,” featuring Ethan Ross and PLVTINUM, and the 20 million-streamer “Do Or Die,” songs that showcase the true versatility of the group. “That reaction inspired us to continue exploring that side of our sound, which informed how we started building out the world of Vamp.”
Leaning into these more morose, minor-key impulses, the band began crafting their next chapter. Songs like “SHALLOW” and “SHADOW TALK,” some of the first the band penned for the follow-up to Halloween Mixtape II, set the tone, with repeated references to darkness, shadows, and monsters – leading them to think bigger about what the set of songs could become. Before long, they were entrenched in building out the album’s details, crafting characters, settings, and storylines that added new layers of complexity and creativity to their already captivating sound.
Vamp follows Aurora X1, a half-cyborg/half-human heroine thrust into turmoil when the Shadow Cult, led by her estranged father, Obsidian, launches a plan to merge the Shadow Realm with the physical world. Following ancient legends, occult mysticism and the destruction left by the Shadow Cult, Aurora and her army of Shadow Breakers search for the Bloodstone, a powerful gem that grants them superhuman speed and strength – but not without its own cost.
Across the album’s 11 tracks – produced by the band’s own producers, Torres, Criales and Ernst, alongside Andrew Wade (A Day To Remember, Wage War), Hiram Hernandez (blessthefall, Real Friends) and Andy Karpovck (408, Taylor Acorn) and mixed by Zakk Cervini (Bad Omens, Bring Me The Horizon) – Magnolia Park soundtrack this dramatic tale of crimson blood and chrome-plated courage through their own mix of man and machine, stacking whirring electronics and industrial undertones alongside sledgehammer breakdowns, walls of detuned guitars and Roberts’ seam-splitting vocals.
The anthemic nü-metal rage, replete with sky-high melodies, is front and center on tracks like pre-release singles “WORSHIP” (ft. PLVTINUM and Vana) and “CULT,” which see both Aurora and Obsidian readying their followers for the epic battle ahead. Elsewhere, “CRAVE” finds Aurora’s followers, the Vampires, fighting a war within, battling their thirst for blood while attempting to sidestep a horrific act that might doom them forever.
But despite the intricately detailed, jet-black motif of Vamp – not just the music itself, but the accompanying photos, videos, artwork, merchandise and, as fans will soon see on tour, production at the band’s already raved-about live show – at its heart, the album is deeply personal. The songs stand as a unified, cohesive body of work, complete with a cliffhanger that sets up even more epic events in the future of Aurora X1 and the Shadow Realm. But divorced from the larger narrative, they also represent the push and pull of personal life. So while a song like the mournful “OPHELIA” stands as a reminder of the cost of war, and “THE SCREAMS” details Obsidian’s power to infiltrate the minds of his enemies, they’re born from very real places in the band’s personal lives: love and loss, the internal strength required to tune out the forces looking to shake us from our dreams.
It’s this ability to blur the lines – between genres, yes, but even between how their songs can resonate with audiences – that’s made Magnolia Park such an exciting band to watch. There are few acts in the scene who could effortlessly alternate between covering a beloved Disney track (“I2I,” which the band lent to the 2024 A Whole New Sound compilation) and conceptualizing a heady, intricate work like Vamp, but that unpredictability is truly what keeps fans – and Magnolia Park themselves – on their toes.
“The most exciting thing about this band is how everyone elevates everyone else,” Roberts says. “I'm just so glad that we're all able to do that and come out with great music and great vibes and feel like we’ve accomplished something special. That's the whole mission: to make sure that at the end of the journey, we're better than we were in the beginning.” ##

Jutes
As a 90's baby, Jutes' earliest musical influences were rock bands like Radiohead, Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Third Eye Blind and Smashing Pumpkins. These are the sounds that have shaped Jutes' recent full length project titled “Ladybug.” From growing up on a farm in Ottawa, Canada to couch surfing in LA, Jutes has seen all walks of life. This contrast of culture comes through in the music, his personality and on stage.

Winona FighterWinona Fighter is a high-energy punk band known for their explosive live shows, razor-sharp hooks, and unapologetic attitude. Hailing from Nashville, Tennessee, the band blends classic punk urgency with modern alternative grit, delivering fast, catchy songs packed with raw emotion and biting wit. Fronted by Coco Kinnon, alongside Dan Fuson and Austin Luther, Winona Fighter channels themes of frustration, self-empowerment, and chaotic young adulthood into anthems that feel both cathartic and fun.
Drawing inspiration from pop-punk, hardcore, and garage rock, their sound is loud, punchy, and built for sweaty, stage-diving crowds. Tracks like “Subaru” and “You Look Like a Drunk Phoebe Bridgers” showcase their knack for pairing tongue-in-cheek humor with heartfelt intensity. Since forming, Winona Fighter has built a rapidly growing fanbase through relentless touring and a DIY spirit, positioning themselves as one of the most exciting voices in the new wave of punk.
