Frank says:

"Hey, this is Frank Iero. I just wanted to wish...uh...Senses Fail a happy twenty years on 'Let it Unfold You'...uuuhh...

20 years is a long time. I think that means I'm just really, really, old.

So are you guys, fuck you (flips camera the bird).

Thoughts on the 2024 slam dunk lineup ?

Honestly? Overwhelmingly mid.

With the exception of State Champs and As December Falls, they're all bands that, y'know, I like... but I don't love.

You Me At Six, All American Rejects, We The Kings, Boys Like Girls, The Wonder Years, Against The Current, those guys are all fine and I'm sure'd be fun to see, but especially compared to previous years where headliners have been Sum 41, The Offspring, Good Charlotte, it just feels a little meh.

I'm not ruling out going, 'cause hey, what else am I gonna do on that Sunday - but yeah, nothing on here that truly truly excites me. That's my thoughts on the lineup so far.

New L.S. Dunes interview at Slam Dunk 2024.

- they confirmed that the new album is done and it will come out sometime next year but we will probably hear a single by the end of the year.

- Previous Slam Dunk experiences

- How it’s like to do double duty at festivals (Frank says it helps with nerves, just like getting tattooed before shows)

- Frank says the new album is the best each of the members have ever done (he always thinks the newest is always the best)

- Says that Dunes are always creating new music and that it helps him not being annoying to the members of his other bands because he always wants to be creating something. My take on this is that he knows he can be too much sometimes so it’s best to be creating with different people (like he always does) and not annoy anyone too much.

Mayday Parade Announce New Album

Mayday Parade will release Sweet on April 18th. Today they’ve shared the new song “By the Way.” Mayday Parade – vocalist Derek Sanders, drummer/vocalist Jake Bundrick, guitarists Alex Garcia and Brooks Betts and bassist/vocalist Jeremy Lenzo – will be celebrating 20 years together in 2025. As they welcome this career milestone, the Tallahassee, Florida, five-piece is set to release perhaps their most aspirational and ambitious effort yet: a three-part album showcasing their prolific, emotionally resonant songwriting. The first entry, Sweet, arrives April 18, 2025, and is led by the effervescent bounce of “By The Way,” a pitch-perfect blend of what’s made Mayday Parade a genre mainstay for decades: a tender, piano-led groove ultimately giving way to a crush of stereo guitars, ascendent melodies, and heart-on-sleeve lyricism. “Being in a band for this long, sometimes you feel like you’re getting it right and sometimes you feel like you’re dancing around what you should be doing. This song feels locked in as a step in the right direction. It’s a song about trying to stay optimistic as the world and everything you know is changing around you. We hope you all enjoy it.” – Derek Sanders on “By The Way” Sweet succinctly showcases just how far Mayday Parade has come in the past two decades featuring the trademark sound that’s transformed them from genre newcomers to torchbearers for a new generation. Recorded with longtime producers, multiplatinum engineers Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount (All Time Low, Jimmy Eat World), the trilogy of releases will serve as Mayday Parade’s eight full-length studio album and first LP since 2021’s What It Means To Fall Apart. The new three-part album is also the band’s first self-released collection since 2006’s Tales Told By Dead Friends EP that Mayday Parade sold in parking lots across the country as they followed that year’s Vans Warped Tour.   “Being a band for 20 years feels big and we wanted to do something big to match that. Our next release will be a large album split up into three different parts. It feels like a challenge and an exciting step forward for the band. Our goal is to take the things we’ve learned and the ways we’ve grown and apply them towards an ambitious release. We’re incredibly thankful for the opportunity to continue to create music and we cannot wait to share Part 1 - titled ‘Sweet’ - with the world.” – Derek Sanders on Sweet Since first forming in 2005 Mayday Parade has graced the covers of Alternative Press and Rock Sound, been featured in Rolling Stone, Billboard, and Kerrang, twice headlined Sad Summer Festival (a festival they co-founded six years ago), performed as a feature act at 2024’s When We Were Young festival, and are already announced for this year’s event in Las Vegas on October 18th. They’ve also been a featured act at Riot Fest and Slam Dunk, done numerous headline tours as well as support slots and just last year Mayday Parade’s Derek Sanders joined Dashboard Confessional’s “Emo SuperJam” at Bonnaroo Music & Art Festival.    As one of the most enduring acts to rise from the underground in the mid-aughts, Mayday Parade has soundtracked both adolescence and adulthood for millions of listeners. Their music stands synonymous with the emo and pop-punk genres: 2007’s A Lesson In Romantics, their debut LP is gold certified and has been hailed as one of the best – and most influential – emo albums of all time by Alternative Press. Monsters In The Closet, their 2013 release, debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard 200, and tracks like the platinum-selling “Jamie All Over,” gold-certified “Miserable At Best” and “Oh Well, Oh Well” represent not only widespread commercial acclaim, but the sort of artist-audience relationship that’s fortified them across changing musical landscapes and the ebb and flow of an unforgiving industry.    Now, with Sweet set to launch and the project’s remaining two releases waiting in the wings later this year and into 2026, it’s undoubtedly a good time to be a Mayday… https://chorus.fm/news/mayday-parade-announce-new-album/

rocksound: Waterparks, Slam Dunk Festival 2024

REVIEW: It doesn't matter what sort of stage you put Waterparks on, you know they will make it their own. You also know that Awsten Knight will have plenty of tricks up his sleeve. Pulling out the likes of 'Blonde' and 'Stupid For You' early doors - making sure all arms are up and feet are off the ground - is just the tip of the iceberg. The triple-header of 'SELF-SABOTAGE', 'BRAINWASHED' and 'FUCK ABOUT IT' are injected with fresh strains of glitchy chaos, whilst a very welcome playthrough of '21 Questions' feels incredibly cathartic for all stretching their vocal cords to scream it back as violently as possible. It's a showcase of where Waterparks have been and where Waterparks are heading. A boundless display of creativity that few can match and a firm reminder of why they remain one of the scene's finest cult sensations.

The First Slam Dunk Movie May Feel Like the Last, but the Legacy is There

Although The First Slam Dunk Movie feels like the last, this #sports #anime #movie has lasting power to bring the love full circle. #bluray review at:

Available to purchase on Amazon USA Shout! Studios Released Jun 25, 2024 The First Slam Dunk movie is a must for any sports anime fan’s library. Although it’s not an introduction to this series, it’s in fact the last chapter. After a long journey from specialty screenings to festivals, it’s finally available on home video. And I’m happy that it’s “ended” on a positive note. This IP reached the…
