A few days back, we showed you the first of many FRONT Versus… videos that we’ve gone and done with the terrific twosome Lora Leigh and Arabella pitching themselves against a load of killer bands. Here they are going head to head with The Wonder Years, who seem to have taken over the interview themselves.

Check out our last FRONT Versus… against Levi from Miss May I HERE, and see more The Wonder Years here.

Awesome post-hardcore Southern rockers Memphis May Fire ‘s new album, Challenger, is out 25 June, with super special guest appearances from Sleeping With Sirens’ Kellin Quinn and Asking Alexandria’s Danny Worsnop, so that’ll be a bit alright won’t it?
 
They’re also doing a UK tour with Of Mice & Men this autumn. Check out tour dates after the jump…

We recently had a really long conversation with Matt Skiba about guns, planes, fear and buses. Here we go:

(Note: this interview first appeared in FRONT 166, available here, which also features Slayer, While She Sleeps, Lower Than Atlantis and so much other amazingness that you definitely need it in your life.)

This is the newest vid from 21-year-old Stefan Evan Niedermeyer, or Siren to anyone but his mum, dad and bank. He’s a ex pro skater who’s gone down the musician route and come up with some bangers just like this after working with dudes from Metronomy and Arcade Fire, and we’re into it.

This video for song The Surrender features Habitat rider Austyn Gillette shredding around LA, and was supposed to feature Siren as well, but he, er, fucked his ankle right before filming commenced. Instead, we get this and it’s rad. We’re guessing if he hadn’t bust his foot, we wouldn’t have got a dog playing piano, so it’s swings and roundabouts, innit.

If you like us, you’ll like this. You’ve got KIGH, Young Guns, Deaf Havana, Mallory Knox, Straight Lines, Don Broco, Hildamay and Shadows Chasing Ghosts, all friends of FRONT and all together to party together at this year’s Redfest. We imagine its gonna be exactly like our funeral, only less happy and more sad. We hope.

Get yourself to Surrey on 20-22 July and get tickets from HERE.

Hello. We’re not 100% sure of everything that took place yesterday, so we’re spending today in disguise just in case it turns out we did anything dreadful and/or hideous. Like, we remember filming a whole load of amazingness, and drinking these exciting things called “lots of beers”, and seeing a whole bunch of bands, and there was definitely an incident with a sandwich, and a man’s eye did a thing a man’s eye shouldn’t do… A lot happens on a Groezrock Saturday. Today’s swiftly moving in the same direction, so it’s really a good thing we’re videoing it all (with the help of the lovely Lora Leigh, the lovely Arabella Drummond, and the alright-if-you-like-that-sort-of-thing video-wrangler Jordan Green). There’s a bear in this video. A fucking BEAR.

Music: These Streets, by Heights.

We’re in Belgium with Lora Leigh, Arabella Drummond, Etnies and Monster having a fucking amazing time. We can’t remember much of what happened at our opening party last night but luckily someone remembered to film it, so here’s a recap of our first day at Groezrock. See you tomorrow for part two.
