New Get Up Kids Album

Talk about something to write home about: The Get Up Kids are in the studio recording new music! We don't know whether this will be an EP or an LP, but I'll take what I can get from my third favorite band of all time (the top two being The Receiving End of Sirens and Glassjaw). The '90s / early 2000s emo band (you know, from when "emo" was an actual musical genre and before it was commandeered and misused by everyone, their mom, My Chemical Romance fans, and, as of this week, Alex Trebek) have gone on multiple reunion tours and most recently a 20th anniversary tour, but haven't released new music since 2011's There Are Rules. Both that and the EP, Simple Science took a new direction and weren't received well by fans apparently, given that the band has rarely played those songs since touring for There Are Rules. So hopefully these new songs get back to The Get Up Kids' roots. Whatever the case, I'm glad they're back together!

    If anything, Every Time I Die are a punctual band. You can expect a new album from them every other year, with several tours in between.

    Hands down, Twin Peaks has the best score - and intro song - in the history of television. The only non-download way for fans to listen to the OST is a CD from the early '90s when CD audio compression wasn't so hot. (Don't get me wrong.

    You've got to hand it to them. The boys in Every Time I Die are extremely reliable, having put out a new album every two years since 2001, save for a single three-year gap.
