Fall Out Boy Recreate ‘Take This To Your Grave’ Album Artwork

Pop punk outfit Fall Out Boy were spotted recreating their notable Take This To Your Grave album artwork today in the same place the picture was captured. No one knows exactly why or for what purpose this was done. We do in fact know that a video was shot.

Bad Rabbits Can't Fool Me

STREAM: Bad Rabbits – “Can’t Fool Me”

The Bad Rabbits are at it again.

Less than a week before American Love drops (preorder it), Boston’s Bad Rabbits have released another single for fans to enjoy. “Can’t fool Me” harken’s back to the style of the Stick Up Kids EP from a few years back (more so than the other recent singles, that is), and is just as fun, boisterous, and funky as we have come to expect. You can stream the new jam right after the jump.

Bad Rabbits are an incredible live band. Click here to see their upcoming tour dates.

Paramore Feature 2013

REVIEW: Paramore – Self-Titled

Band: Paramore
Album: Paramore
Label: Fueled By Ramen

There is plenty to cover with this introduction. I could start by mentioning how it’s been nearly four years since Paramore released their last full length effort, Brand New Eyes. I could say that because of various momentum hits, like the Farro brothers’ departure under the most shocking and inamicable of circumstances, the Tennessee group have become but an afterthought to longtime fans. Haley Williams has even gone on as far to say that this self-titled record is a statement, one that’s not just limited externally to the world, but …

REVIEW: Millionaires – ‘Tonight’

Artist: Millionaires
Album: Tonight
Genre: Electropop/synth
Label: Unsigned

Millionaires, and by extension their album, put me in mind of an interview I saw with Lyn-Z of MSI a few years ago. She spoke about how, when she was originally invited to join the band, she listened to their album Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy and turned it off halfway through, thinking it was the most annoying thing she’d ever heard. But she kept finding herself going back to it, until eventually she made it through the whole thing and was won over. I think this may be how …

REVIEW: A Rocket to the Moon – Wild & Free

Artist: A Rocket to the Moon
Album: Wild & Free
Genre: Pop/rock
Label: Fueled by Ramen

A Rocket to the Moon would have you believe they’re a rock band going by their description of themselves, but don’t believe it for a second. This is pure, polished, technicolour pop of the highest order. Not that this means it’s of particularly high quality, but rather that it is almost commendably shameless in its pursuit of feelgood frolics. The band sound remarkably like a male version of Taylor Swift. Indeed, were you to take her songs through a plasticine factory and hack up …
