"Perfectly Perfect"

They did it again. It seems like our guys from Simple Plan aren't happy if they don't make an emotional music video per album. 

In No Pads, No Helmets... Just Balls, they did it with Perfect's music video. 

In Still Not Gettin' Any, they did it with Untitled's music video. 

In Simple Plan, they did it with Save You's music video. 

In Get Your Heart On!, they did it with This Song Saved My Life's music video. 

Now, in Taking One For The Team, they've done it again. 

Perfectly Perfect, probably the song that can touch your heart in an emotional way from the album, finally has a music video that we can enjoy. 

Following the song's theme, the video is exactly what we could name an ode to diversity. We can watch many couples, but what makes the video as beautiful as it is isn't the fact that they're shown - what makes it so especial is that the people we can see aren't the stereotypes we see in most videos. 

We can see straight couples, but we can also see homosexual couples. We can see people with different body types. We can see people from different places, people of different races. 

Because all of us aren't white,

because all of us aren't thin.

because all of us aren't straight, 

because all of us aren't the typical stereotypes, 

because all of us aren't the same.

Because there's nothing wrong about that.

We're diverse, aren't we? 

Thank you, Simple Plan.

You've done it again, 

you've let us know that it's okay to be diverse,

that it's okay to be ourselves.

Dear Jeydon Wale,

You all are probably thinking: "oh, you wanna talk about Jeydon as if him coming out is gossip". 

No, that's not the case. 

I want to talk about Jeydon Wale because I'm proud of him, because I know coming out isn't something easy. It shouldn't be something difficult, but it is most of the times. It takes courage to tell the world who you actually are and open up about it. 

Now this goes to you, Jeydon,

I'm really happy that you've come to the point where you accept yourself as you are, it's amazing and it draws a smile on my face to hear you say that you're so happy. It actually does. 

As a transgender guy, I know all that, I can relate to everything you said and I did tear up because you deserve all the good things that happen to you.

Also, I know how much it helps our community the fact that someone like you have been able to stand up and say the truth: that we're just as everyone else. Because, the more we talk about it, the more natural people start to see it - which is as it should be. 

I've read that tweet in which you've said you're working on a project to support the trans community, and as a trans actvist, whatever help you need, I'm willing to help and I'd love to, because that's what I try to do most of the time actually.

You have all my support, Jeydon, we've gone through really similar things after all. Stay awesome as you've always been!

Asking Alexandria's ex-lead singer coming back!?

These last days have been a little weird for the fans of the band Asking Alexandria, but today rumours have been confirmed.

Denis Stoff, singer for the band since Danny Worsnop left, has left Asking Alexandria.

Also, Danny Worsnop, who left the band in 2015, has come back.

Why has this happened? We don't have much information on this, we only know what Ben Bruce has told, which is not much. Basically he has said that Denis stopped talking to them with no apparent reason, and then reclaimed "what they owed him". Ben emphasizes that they didn't kick Denis out of the band.

Their relationship with Danny had improved, even though at first there were some downs. For this reason, finally, he re-joined the band.

Some fans feel happy about this, other feel upset about this, and definitely many don't know how to feel about this. Are you excited about Danny's comeback, or did you prefer Denis? Share your thoughts below!

Here you can watch the video in which Ben Bruce talks about this: https://www.facebook.com/askingalexandria/videos/10154640092260818/

The band Annisokay releases new song - "Loud"

More than a week without posting any post? In any blog? I should definitely apologize about this, but also wasting time saying "I'm sorry I didn't post" is time I'm wasting when I could be talking about music - which is why you're here, aren't you? 

Today, the post-hardcore band from Germany, Annisokay, has released a brand new single off their upcoming album Devil May Care, which is coming out October 11th! 

The song's meaning can be quite blurry and open to interpretation, however, considering the lyrics and the video I would say that it's basically about how short the time we have is and taking advantage of it to say whatever you have to say, what you believe and think it's the truth - even if people won't listen. 

Do you agree, or do you find another meaning to the song? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

"God Save Us All"

The release date of Sum 41's new album, 13 Voices, is coming closer and closer. After listening to two tracks off this new album, Fake My Own Death and War, we could guess that not only they were coming back, but also that they were coming back in the music style that we would enjoy about them. 

This time, they've released another song, God Save Us All (Death to POP), that talks about the feeling that gives you rock music - that sense of unity, of sympathy, that feeling that we're all going through the same. 

13 Voices seems to be an awesome album, they haven't got softer, and they keep being as amazing as they used to be. Will the rest of the album be this way? Hope so!

My Digital Escape coming back? Not really.

In case you don't know about My Digital Escape, I'll talk a little about it so you don't feel lost while reading this post. 

My Digital Escape (aka MDE) is a channel that was originally formed by a group of YouTubers who decided to make a collaboration channel. Basically it was formed by: BryanStars, Johnie Guilbert, Alex Dorame, Jeydon Wale, Kyle David Hall, Shannon Taylor, Jordan Sweeto... and also some people who sometimes collaborated. 

However, they broke up like four months ago, the channel remained open, but after the explanation no videos were post.

Until a few days ago, when suddenly a video was uploaded. As far as we've heard, one member of the original collab has bought the channel and re-opened it by themselves. All of this without consent by the other members, which has felt to them like being stabbed in the back - no wonder why. 

They're all upset and disappointed, since it's something they created together, and one person is trying to take advantage of it so unfairly and without even asking them. 

Below you can watch a couple of videos from some of the members, explaining the actual situation:

"Life Changes"

Hello there! 

Just today, the pop-punk band Good Charlotte has released a brand new music video for their single Life Changes, coming off their latest album, Youth Authority. 

Showing us some of their moments while touring, live shows, rehearsals, some moments with their mates... they give the video the feel that life changes, and what the fast life is like on tour. 

Well, it seems as though they have a good time there ;)

Straight To DVD's trailer!

I'm back here with news from less than an hour ago!

The pop-punk band from Baltimore All Time Low has just released the official trailer of Straight To DVD II. Straight To DVD was a documentary full of performances, backstages, stories and basically All Time Low being as they are... anything but normal (in a good way) ;)

If you want to watch Straight To DVD, click here.

And the 9th September, these guys are releasing Straight To DVD, which seems like it's going to be as amazing as the first one, or, who knows? Maybe even better. We won't know until the 9th September. Judge by yourself by watching the trailer that's just been posted, below I'm sharing it!

"Carry On"

Talking about bands that are releasing brand new music, post-hardcore couldn't definitely lag behind, right?

Memphis May Fire, the worldwide known post-hardcore band from Texas, has announced that they're releasing their brand new album, titled This Light I Hold, on October 28th.

In advance, they've shared with us what seems to be the first single off the album, Carry On. The sound of their music doesn't seem to have changed, although some complain that the lyrics aren't as good as their oldest music in comparison.

It seems as though these lyrics complaining about haters, can bring some haters more as well. However, other defend this song and the power that it transmits.

In which side are you?

"War"

Hi there, let's talk about pop-punk! And, since we're going to talk about pop-punk, why not talk about Sum 41's latest single?

As you might know, Sum 41 is releasing a brand new álbum in October 7th, 13 Voices. The first song we got to listen off this new album was Fake Your Own Death, the living proof that not only they're back, but also they're back with the same pop-punk style we've always loved about them!

This new track keeps this style, that turns more to an alternative rock style with a meaning that can remind us to Pieces. Some say it has references to the singer's problems with alcoholism.

Nevertheless, the song itself mentions any kind of war that we might have to face with ourselves, those wars that aren't against other people, it's just those fights in which we try to overcome something that feels like a damn war.

As they say, somedays it's just so hard, but nobody said wars were easy - it's a war after all, right?

"Dragon Sickness"

Hey there! 

Today, the post-hardcore band Villain Of The Story, after not releasing music for a while, has released a brand new single, Dragon Sickness. 

It's said that bands get softer with time, but this definitely isn't the case! Not only these guys have positively progressed since their earlier music, but also they've become heavier. 

In addition, let's take a listen to the lyrics - who hasn't met a person like the one they talk about, who takes advantage of others? Those people can give you a hard time, even ruin your life... however, with time, those people end up alone, because no one wants to be played with. Maybe this would be a nice track to dedicate them ;)

Keep it up guys, I'm sure you'll go far! 

"Circles"

Hi there! How are y'all doing? I hope you're doing great! 

Only a few hours ago, the post-hardcore band Pierce The Veil released the official music video for their single Circles, which is the first music video off their latest album, Misadventures. 

To be honest, the video is quite weird, but in a funny and enjoyable way! The plot of it is a really cool one - it seems as though they had a great time recording it. Knowing we're talking about Pierce The Veil, this isn't the first video in which they do crazy things and everything gets a little weird. 

These guys never disappoint, do they? 

My Chemical Heartbreak

Hi guys! 

What happens when My Chemical Romance says they have an upcoming announcement? Well, I can tell you what happened. Everybody (including myself) got excited thinking that they were coming back together. So innocent we were... 

The truth is that they aren't coming back together - I wish. The truth is that the only thing that's happening is a release for the anniversary of The Black Parade, which came out in 2006 - so it's 10 years old now. 

To be honest, it's a shame that they aren't coming back together, especially because we got our hopes high, but since it seems like it's not happening - at least we should enjoy the release when it comes our, right? 

This is the message:

Outstanding releases!

Hey dearest readers! 

The end of last month (and the beginning of this one) have brought us some great releases, let's talk about some of the most outstanding ones! 

The post-hardcore band Of Mice & Men has surprised us (and frightened us with the video) releasing a brand new single for their song Pain, the first song we get to listen from their upcoming new album, Cold World, which will be out September 9th. The change in their sound, becoming more Hardcore than their last records, has surprised the audience - in a good or bad way? We'll get to see that!

We get a little softer, because this year pop punk's definitely in a come-back. Many bands have proved that so far, and the next to add up is Taking Back Sunday, that released a brand new song called Tidal Wave, so 00's-sound-alike. Are we back in the 00's? I definitely hope so!

I talking about pop punk coming back to life, wasn't I? Knowing that blink-182, Taking Back Sunday, Good Charlote, Simple Plan... are captivating us with a 00's sound, which band is missing? Sum 41 won't fall behind, and they're joining the come-back, with the release of a brand new song called Fake My Own Death. It was time, right? 

Last, but not least, we'll push aside the 00's for a while, and we'll go back to 2016, because the rock band I Prevail also has something new for us! They've just released a brand new single, Scars, and its music video... which leads us wondering - do we know ourselves?
