This week: the crew discusses new songs from Deafheaven, Model/Actrix, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Dying Wish, and Backxwash. In the news topics: Louder Than Life unveils its 2025 lineup, and Vans Warped Tour begins to round out the complete roster for its 30th anniversary… in both cases, these festivals make some aggressively poor vetting decisions.
