Vans Warped Tour to Celebrate 30 Th Anniversary in 2025

The Vans Warped Tour, recognized as one of the most successful and longest-running festivals of its kind, is making a triumphant return in 2025, marking its 30th anniversary and catalyzing the platform for the future. Featuring three two-day day festivals in Washington, D.C., Long Beach, CA, and Orlando, FL, Vans Warped Tour 2025 makes its return in partnership with Insomniac, the experience creators behind some of the world’s largest music festivals and live events, to revive the magic for both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

After concluding its final cross-country tour in 2018 and hosting a memorable 25th anniversary event, the iconic festival will have a continued focus on community and nurturing the next generation of artists, musicians and skateboarders.

Each stop will showcase 70 to 100 bands, reflecting a wide range of genres including but not limited to rock, punk rock, alternative, pop punk, emo, and more. The return of Vans Warped Tour will combine beloved festival favorites from the last 30 years of Warped Tour as well as a diverse lineup of newer acts. Vans Warped Tour has always been committed to accessible pricing, and the 2025 return is no exception, with full weekend passes starting at an all-inclusive price of $149.98 ($119.99 ticket + $29.99 fees), available for presale beginning October 24th at 9 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. ET at www.vanswarpedtour.com.

As Warped Tour gears up for its return, Warped Tour and Insomniac founders reflect on their new partnership and shared vision.

Kevin Lyman, Founder of Warped Tour shares: “People are craving connection, live music, and the raw, unfiltered experience that Warped has always offered. We’ve seen how music continues to unite and inspire, and this return isn’t just about nostalgia—it’s about giving a new generation the chance to feel that same sense of belonging and freedom that Warped has always championed. Insomniac is a company I’ve always admired, so when the opportunity to collaborate arose, I couldn’t say no. I thought, why the hell not? Let’s dive in and make this happen!”

Pasquale Rotella, Founder of Insomniac shares: “It’s very exciting to partner with Kevin to bring Warped Tour back. He’s built an incredible legacy that celebrates the heart of live music and we’re energized to create a rad festival that honors the spirit of Warped Tour. We both prioritize culture and community and focus on keeping the fan experience at the forefront which is why this partnership feels so natural.”

Fans in Washington, D.C. can kick off the summer at the Festival Grounds at RFK Campus on June 14 and 15. Then, the festival will head to Long Beach, CA, where it will take place on July 26 and 27 at Downtown Long Beach Shoreline Waterfront. Finally, the tour will wrap up the year in Orlando, FL, with performances at Camping World Stadium Campus on November 15 and 16. Each location promises an unforgettable experience filled with music, community, and nostalgia.

The festival has a rich legacy of hosting renowned artists such as Blink-182, Katy Perry, Fall Out Boy, NOFX, Green Day, The Used, Paramore, Good Charlotte, Sum 41, Machine Gun Kelly, The Black Eyed Peas, My Chemical Romance, Neck Deep, Pierce The Veil, and many more. The 2025 edition will honor the tour’s iconic history while shining a spotlight on the next generation of artists, with full lineup details to be announced at a later date.

Confirmed brand sponsors include Vans, BeatBox Beverages, Ernie Ball, hiyo, and 805 Beer, with additional sponsors to be revealed. GHOST® Energy will also take center stage as the official energy and hydration drink partner. Their unwavering support and belief in the tour’s vision have been instrumental in its revival, helping to elevate the overall experience for fans and artists alike. Fans can look forward to the iconic Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands which will launch in early 2025, as well as nonprofit booths and fan favorites like meet-and-greets, eco-initiatives, and interactive art tents. This 30th anniversary edition of the tour will combine the festival’s rich history with new immersive elements, creating a vibrant, community-driven atmosphere that will engage both longtime fans and newcomers.

As Vans Warped Tour gears up for this milestone year, its partnership with Insomniac ensures that the festival will not only rekindle its iconic spirit but also evolve with fresh, forward-thinking elements. With unforgettable performances and immersive experiences, the 2025 return promises to capture the magic that has made Warped Tour a cultural phenomenon for three decades.

MYLES KENNEDY Releases Lyric Video for “Saving Face”

Myles Kennedy

With the release of his third solo album, The Art Of Letting Go, just days away, vocalist/guitarist/songwriter MYLES KENNEDY – known for his work with rockers Alter Bridge and Slash and the Conspirators – is releasing his final pre-release track “Saving Face.”  The song is a blazing rock track that is built around Myles’ driving guitar riff as Tim Tournier’s distorted bass and Zia Uddin’s drums push the verses towards an unforgettable chorus. The song talks about continuing to mark your place in the world today regardless of what others around are doing to drag you down. It is the life lesson that wisdom you gain after being on the planet for a while is every bit as important as youthful exuberance is.

An animated lyric video incorporating the enthralling album cover artwork is now available!

The debut single – the upbeat rocker “Say What You Will” – brought Myles his highest solo chart position ever and is the most spun single of Myles’ solo career.  The album is scheduled for release via longtime label home Napalm Records on October 11, 2024.

Lacuna Coil Announces New Album, ‘Sleepless Empire’

Lacuna Coil
photo credit: CUNENE

Italian metal titans Lacuna Coil announce their 10th studio album Sleepless Empire – their first collection of new songs since 2019’s Black Anima – with their new single “Oxygen”. “Oxygen” comes with a mesmerizing music video, filmed in Latina and directed by Daniele Tofani, that shows singer Cristina Scabbia in the lead role.

Cristina Scabbia commented on the track and her experience filming the video: “‘Oxygen’ is a powerful exploration of emotional struggle and inner conflict. The lyrics convey a sense of drowning in a toxic environment, both literally (in the video) and metaphorically, where attempts at salvation, represented by ‘oxygen’ are somehow futile. This song encapsulates the feeling of struggling to break free from what holds us down, when the journey is filled with difficulty. It’s a raw anthem of vulnerability, resilience, and the courage to face what seems insurmountable. Having to stay in the water for so many hours during the video shoot was cathartic for me, the realisation that the pleasant sensation of floating could in an instant become dangerous and deadly if I wasn’t careful was very fitting with the song’s theme.”

Inspiration to create Sleepless Empire came during the sessions for Comalies XX (2022), the acclaimed remake of their breakthrough record of the same title. Writing and recording took place in northern Italy between Milano (the band’s hometown) and Como, where SPVN Studios are located. As with their previous albums, production was done in house with Marco “Maki” Coti Zelati at the helm, and artwork was hand curated by the talented Italian artist Roberto Toderico. Two other very special talents enrich the album, namely the guest vocalists: Lamb of God‘s Randy Blythe on the song “Hosting the Shadow” and New Year’s Day‘s Ash Costello on “In The Mean Time”.

As a token of the band’s love for the gaming world (which we’ve seen in past endevours such as their card game “Horns Up” and their collaboration with Zombicide for which they wrote the track “Never Dawn”), the band have created an oracle “game” to be played with custom made dice available only in the box set version of Sleepless Empire

The new album is comprised of 11 tracks; each one is a richly textured soundtrack to a specific time and place. With Sleepless Empire, that place is dark, cinematic, and unmistakably true to the unique characteristics that have given Lacuna Coil such a celebrated entry in the annals of heavy music. The band shares: ‘Sleepless Empire’ captures, through our eyes, the chaos of a generation trapped in a digital world that never stops, where social media consumes identity and every day pushes us one step closer to becoming soulless zombies. We find ourselves in between, having witnessed a full analogic world and the modern one, confronting the evolution and searching for a true meaning of it all. Throughout every song, the journey is an undercurrent of rebellion, a desperate cry to reclaim oneself in an era that seems to have lost its sense of time and reality.”

Sleepless Empire can be pre-ordered now here: https://lacunacoil.lnk.to/SleeplessEmpire – where the album is available in the following formats:

“Three Days Grace has made waves in the rock music scene with the exciting announcement of Adam Gontier’s return to the band, alongside current lead vocalist Matt Walst. Gontier, who originally left the group in 2013 due to personal reasons, is now set to share vocal duties with Walst, creating a unique collaboration that fans have eagerly anticipated. Both singers expressed their enthusiasm about the reunion, with Gontier stating it felt “seamless” and like they had “picked up where we left off,” while Walst highlighted the inspiring experience of blending over 20 years of Three Days Grace’s legacy into new music. This unprecedented arrangement allows fans to enjoy the best of both worlds, as Gontier’s iconic voice from hits like “I Hate Everything About You” and “Never Too Late” merges with Walst’s contemporary sound. The band is currently working on new material, promising an exciting future for their dedicated fanbase.” (Perplexity)

“Onstage rock star meltdowns have become infamous for their chaotic and unpredictable nature, often captivating audiences and leaving a lasting impression. Ronnie Radke, the lead vocalist of Falling In Reverse, is known for his dramatic outbursts, including a notorious incident where he stormed off stage mid-performance, leaving fans bewildered and sparking discussions about his volatile behavior. Similarly, Perry Farrell, frontman of Jane’s Addiction, has had his share of meltdowns, notably during a performance where he confronted audience members directly, showcasing the raw emotions that can surface in the heat of the moment. These incidents highlight the intense pressure and emotional turmoil that rock stars can experience, turning what should be a celebratory event into a spectacle of frustration and unpredictability. Such meltdowns not only entertain but also serve as a reminder of the human side of these larger-than-life performers, revealing the struggles behind their rock star personas.” (Perplexity)  

Mötley Crüe – Cancelled | Album Review

It’s as if Motley Crue were desperate to prove how edgy and cool they used to be forty years ago, tried to remind us, but actually don’t know how embarrassing they’ve become in 2024. Putting aside a hilariously cringe filled Beastie Boys cover, The Crue try everything from complaining about TikTok, January 6th riots, and the woke crusade. The EP works around Neil’s lack of vocal prowess, the music is like YouTube’s royalty free hard rock library, and the title track makes sure everyone know’ the worse thing about life is not being able to be bad because the internet will call you out on it. The efforts of John 5 are absolutely wasted here. We need to make a rescue mission to get him out of this nightmare, while Mick Mars laughs hysterically somewhere. The music and writing are not even out of touch, they are straight up outdated. I can’t believe how desperate this group has gotten. Just kidding it’s Vince Neil I totally believe it. Motley Crue, proud of never getting cancelled, is now proud of sounding like the embarrassing bar band that makes people leave.

Mötley Crüe Cancelled Album Review

Mötley Crüe “Cancelled”

“Mötley Crüe has made a significant return in 2024 with their latest EP, “Cancelled,” released on October 4. This three-track effort marks the band’s first new music in nearly three decades and features the title track, a cover of the Beastie Boys’ classic “(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party!)”, and the previously released “Dogs of War,” which has already climbed to the Top 5 on rock radio charts124. Produced by Bob Rock, known for his work on their iconic album Dr. Feelgood, the EP showcases the band’s enduring energy and creativity, with a fresh sound that resonates with both longtime fans and new listeners alike12. Alongside this release, Mötley Crüe has announced an exciting Las Vegas residency for 2025, promising immersive concerts that reflect their storied 40-year career24. The “Cancelled” EP not only revitalizes Mötley Crüe’s presence in the rock scene but also sets the stage for a thrilling future as they continue to captivate audiences worldwide.” (Perplexity)

“Green Day, the iconic punk rock band known for their anthemic sound and socially charged lyrics, has recently found themselves at the center of controversy after being banned from two Las Vegas radio stations. This decision came in response to frontman Billie Joe Armstrong’s inflammatory remarks during a concert on September 20, where he referred to Las Vegas as “the worst shithole in America.” His comments were directed at the city’s role in the relocation of his beloved Oakland Athletics baseball team, which has sparked outrage among fans and locals alike. In retaliation, KOMP 92.3 and X107.5 announced they would no longer play Green Day’s music, stating that Armstrong’s comments crossed a line with Las Vegas residents. This incident highlights the band’s complex relationship with their fanbase and the ongoing tensions surrounding sports team relocations, further complicating Green Day’s legacy in the music industry as they continue to navigate their place in contemporary culture amidst such controversies.” (Perplexity)
