Kill Your Stereo

In the wake of releasing Big Kiss Goodnight, Baltimore's hardest hardcore band, Trapped Under Ice, are set to take over the globe again, and this March it will be Australia's turn to realise once again why TUI are back on the tips of everyone's tongues. Joining them around the country will be Sydney's Relentless, setting this tour up to be one of the most unforgettable tours of 2012. Recorded by Chad Gilbert (New Found Glory, Terror), Big Kiss Goodnight sees Trapped Under Ice diversify their hardcore sound and evolve into a band that ticks all the boxes. They have stayed as hard as hard can be, but this time have introduced elements of melody and fun throughout, earning it rave reviews from across the globe. TUI have followed up its release with their own headline US tour alongside Hundredth and Backtrack. Having previously toured with everyone from Hatebreed to Every Time I Die and Despised Icon, the band is a tightly oiled machine, bringing intensity and passion to the stage wher...

There is nothing more satisfying than watching a band progress before your very ears. The Maine are evolving with every move they make and it’s fascinating to watch! The Maine are finding themselves atop of the pop rock pantheon with their unrelenting hooks and tongue in cheek lyrics. Not content with past successes, The Maine have redefined their sound and pushed the boundaries delivering one of the most unique albums ‘Pioneer’ with Alternative Press calling it “consistently unique, interesting and great” and Absolutepunk declaring “pioneer is fucking good”. New Found Glory are continuing their dominance in a genre they pioneered well over a decade ago, providing a breath of fresh air in a scene starved of creativity. Paying homage to the bands that inspired them to pick up their instruments New Found Glory’s new studio album ‘Radiosurgery’ showcases a band at the top of their game and “proves beyond any doubt that New Found Glory are as fired up now in 2011 as they were when th...

 Guitarist Adam Juwig has announced his departure from Anarbor. Juwig plans to go back to school, as explained in the statement below: "So, some of you might have been wondering if I had fallen off the face of the world or not. About two months ago, I made the decision to leave Anarbor and go back to school full time and live a normal life. It was a very hard decision to make and wasn't a spontaneous decision. The whole time we had been touring, I had always had a yearning to go back to school and get my degree. After the "Do America" Tour, we had the longest break at home that we've had since we first began touring. Over the past few months, I was reminded of how much I loved being home and living a normal life. Being away from home for 8 to 10 months out of the year is just something that doesn't interest me anymore. Don't get me wrong, I loved touring and playing shows everyday with my best friends, just being gone so much and not having stability can get a little irritating. T...
