Punks and posers, get out your black hair dye and scuff up your sneakers, it’s Warped Tour time, and we’ve got a hell of an update for ya.
This year’s Minneapolis stop is August 2nd at Canterbury Park.
Last year was my fourth Warped Tour, and I have to say Canterbury Park was an excellent location [...]
Today’s Van’s Warped Tour 2008 Minneapolis stop was my fourth Warped Tour, and probably my most favorite — despite the fact there weren’t any major old school bands appearing this year, the entire festival is an advertisement, I didn’t bring the good SLR camera, and the basic premise that I still can’t stand idiot teenagers. [...]
Minneapolis band Motion City Soundtrack has been around since 1997, which basically makes them a stegosaurus in Warped Tour age. However, MCS continue to be extremely popular, and their current album, Even If It Kills Me, has sold over 119,000+ copies. In between sets, I had the opportunity to interview keyboardist and moog synthesist [...]
Birmingham, England’s Beat Unionare performing at Warped this Sunday, August 3 on the Hurley.com stage. Be sure to wait for the trombone solo at 1:47.
Confide “If We Were A Sinking Ship” from Daniel Chesnut on Vimeo
LA screamers Confide just released the video for “If We Were A Sinking Ship” — directed by Daniel Chesnut (Beat Union, Greeley Estates) and shot in Chino, CA.
The band’s debut release, Shout The Truth, is out now on Science Records. Catch Confide at Vans [...]
I hate my inbox as much as I love it. We’re getting nearly 100 pitches a day right now, and there’s a ton of good music hidden among the crap. Or at least, I’m sure there is if I had three hours a day to read e-mails and sample all the tunes. I’m really missing [...]
Check out the new Red Cross marketing plan…Donate blood, get a backstage pass at Vans Warped Tour. It will go down as the “Blood for Access” strategy (perhaps more befitting of Ozzfest?).
What a truly fantastic idea. Those pasty white emo kids are surely chock full of nutrient-rich red and white blood cells.
Why only spill [...]
Bobaflex
Tales From Dirt Town
Label: TVT Records
Four vocalists harmonizing in rock and roll is usually reserved for Warped bands, but West Virginia’s Bobaflex is better suited for the second stage at Ozzfest. Their new album, Tales from Dirt Town, pulls influence from classic rock and nu-metal.
BUT, the single is entirely wussy Stone [...]
The Blackout
We Are the Dynamite
Release Date: October 2, 2007
Falling Up
Captiva
Release Date: October 2, 2007
Label: BEC Recordings
As far as the Warped Tour crowd goes, we tend to favor the harder, faster, more spirited groups. And we’ll admit, the six metallic troubadours from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales known as The Blackout do their best [...]
Atreyu
Lead Sails Paper Anchors
Label: Hollywood Records
Despite fan base outcry for selling out, Orange County metalcore group Atreyu have stumbled into some early success with their new album released just last week, Lead Sails Paper Anchors.
The 12-track album, the group’s first with Hollywood Records and Roadrunner Records, takes a softer approach than Atreyu’s [...]
