Concert Review: August Burns Red and The Amity Affliction at The Fillmore in Minneapolis, MN
August Burns Red and The Amity Affliction brought their co-headlining tour to
Minneapolis, and for a Tuesday night, the crowd showed up ready to bring the energy.
The Amity Affliction recently released their new album “House of Cards” this April,
marking their first release since former vocalist and bassist Ahren Stringer’s departure
last February. They opened their set with newer material but still made sure to include
fan favorites like “Pittsburgh” and “Soak Me in B

Concert Review: Country Thunder Florida 2026 Festival
There’s something surreal about hearing thousands of people sing country songs steps away from the water as the Florida sunset spills across the skyline - and somehow, Country Thunder Florida 2026 made it feel effortless.

Concert Review: Failure at Le Poisson Rouge, Manhattan, NY
he first thing you notice when walking to Le Poisson Rouge, the 700-cap club in Manhattan’s East Village, is the age range in the massive line wrapped around the block. It’s not uncommon to see bands within the 90s alternative rock circuits attracting massive legions of fans that weren’t around during their commercial comeups (with bands like Deftones, Slowdive, and Duster to name just a handful), but it’s rare to see them pack out clubs instead of stadiums.

Concert Review: Sing Us Home Festival in Manayunk, PA
The 2026 Sing Us Home Festival in the Manayunk section of Philadelphia was a huge success! The family friendly festival brought out people of all ages, with so much more than music. The food and drinks were delicious, there were so many activities like tattoos, haircuts, festival braids, and local small artists selling their work, as well as info booths like, Punk Rock Saves Lives and Planned Parenthood.

Concert Review: Silversun Pickups and Giant Waste of Man at XL Live in Harrisburg, PA
In an era where we pay monthly subscriptions to have the same bands and songs fed to us on repeat, true musical discovery feels like a lost art. Even streaming algorithms, designed for "discovery," often feel catered and repetitive, making it increasingly difficult to find new sounds from smaller, independent acts.

Concert Review: Searows at Webster Hall, NY
The silence in between Searows’ songs feels like an expansion of the atmosphere, not an inhibitor. In the place of traditional ambient tones and excruciating stage banter in between songs, Alec Duckart, the artist known as Searows, tunes his guitar, keeping the dialogue to a minimum. Occasionally, he will thank the audience for coming, tell everyone to let their imagination run wild, or give a cheeky hint towards the last song being “the very last song, with no more after thi

Music Review: Motionless in White Release New Single, Playing God Ft. Slipknots Corey Taylor
For 20 years, Motionless In White has been writing music about religion, politics, corporate greed, and mental health. For 20 years, Motionless In White has been grinding on the road, a staple in the metalcore scene including the early days of Vans Warped Tour. For 20 years, the Scranton, PA based group has been evolving their sound, earning them new fans and chart success.So, it makes sense that the band’s 7th studio album, set for release on July 17th, 2026, is titled “Deca

Concert Review Vana, The Lady in Red, with Redhook, Deadlands and Chandler Leighton at the Fine Line in Minneapolis, MN
If your concert doesn’t include badass women in rock and metal, fake blood, a mosh pit stuffed
animal heist, and trading cards being launched into a crowd of screaming fans…what are you
even doing? Vana’s stop at the Fine Line in Minneapolis, MN for her first ever headline tour
definitely checked all those boxes. With supporting acts Redhook, Deadlands, and Chandler
Leighton, it was truly one of my personal favorite concerts I have attended this year.

Concert Review: Treaty Oak Revival with The Huser Brothers Band at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Portland, OR
Treaty Oak Revival isn’t just another country-rock band. They’re leaders of what I’d call punk country. Energy on max. From the first note, it was time to rage.
Sam welcomed us into the ranks of the Degenerates—a badge I wear proudly. He spoke about their roots, the Crystal Ballroom, WheatStock Festival, and never forgetting where they came from.
By the time “Boomtown” hit, the place erupted—beer flying, bodies moving, chaos everywhere, like a 90s Warped Tour with cowboy

Concert Review: Arm’s Length - “There’s A Whole World… Tour” The Underground – Charlotte, NC
Arm’s Length brought it’s “There’s A Whole World… Tour” to The Underground Charlotte on April 29th, delivering a night that felt as raw as it was cathartic.
The night opened with a strong supporting lineup that set the tone early. Super Sometimes kicked things off with an upbeat, melodic set that eased the crowd into the night…they really caught my attention when I heard their spot on cover of Everytime I look for you (Blink 182). While Harrison Gordon followed with a mor

Concert Review: Bring Me The Horizon With Motionless In White, The Plot In You, and Amira Elfeky at CFG Bank Arena, Baltimore, MD
One of the most discussed topics among the musical landscape is the introduction of alternative subcultures into the mainstream. Everyone has their opinions on it, and there are pros and cons to many sides of the story. There’s the argument that with more and more people cashing in on alternative aesthetics, from goth inspired makeup and monochromatic fashion styles, the idea of what it means to be countercultural becomes diluted.

Concert Review: Electric Callboy at Wintrust Arena in Chicago, IL
After many years of anticipation, The German Metalcore/EDM powerhouse have finally brought their incredible show to American Arenas, and we couldn’t be more pleased. The vibes are never better than the dance floor of an Electric Callboy show. I’ve never seen a metal concert where the entire floor is jumping and dancing for the entire show!

Concert Review: The Happy Fits at XL Live in Harrisburg, PA
Stepping into XL Live for The Happy Fits’ Lovesick tour, I’ll admit I was carrying a bit of weight. Between the technical anxiety of navigating a new venue’s lighting and the "first-timer" nerves of seeing a band I’d never caught live; I wasn't sure what to expect. However, the atmosphere was immediate. The crowd wasn’t just a collection of ticket holders; they were a community. By the time Calvin Langman, Luke Davis, Nico Rose, and Raina Mullen took the stage, any lingering
