College Experience

5SOS ( pronounced five-sauce) stands for the band Five Seconds Of Summer. They are an Australian pop punk band who are returning with new music and probably a new album after taking a two year break. ( Makes me wonder how long One Directions 'break' is going to be. Shade ). The band formed in 2011 and hit fame in 2014 with their song She Looks So Perfect and when they became an opening act on tour for One Direction. They are inspired by Blink-182 who are a pop punk band as well. Currently, they have two albums out and both have added up to just under two million records sold. If they are starting up again, that definitely means a new album is coming and I have a feeling it will have a lot more pop than their past albums. Their new song is called, Want You Back and their music video already has a million views. This new song is different than most of their previous songs, it really shows their pop side. To be honest, I am not a big fan just because I want more of a rock tone bu...

The Rolling Stone posted on their website today that the pop punk band Blink-182 have caught a deal with The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas for a 16 date residency this summer. It would be a good time to relive teenage angst and go see them perform. Blink 182 started in 1992 with original members being Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker, Tom DeLonge. This band is known for being one of the godfathers of the pop punk genre and they have sold over 50 million records worldwide, with 13 million being sold in the U.S. They are best known for songs like All the Small Things, I Miss You, and Adam's Song. This band is unique in that it paved the way for pop punk and inspired a lot of future pop punk bands like Five Seconds of Summer. The band has nice, relatable lyrics and always a lot of electric guitar. Sadly, the band and a rough fall out and break up in 2005. From what I have researched about the breakup, it is a lot of he said she said in that Tom felt the band wasn't progressing or ma...

I keep seeing a random Facebook pic pop up from time to time spreading a rumor that Fleetwood Mac, the greatest rock band in the world, is going to go on tour in 2018. If you check their website, it says there is no upcoming dates. (Plus we are already too far ahead in the year for them to just announce on a whim or too quick) However, the excitement was real and then lead to huge disappointment for everyone who saw that fake post. Moving forward, I am now going to talk about the best band in the world, while that is a opinion, I will fight to prove to anyone that my statement is a fact. Let's start from the beginning, or 1975 when the band consisted of the following main members: Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, and John McVie. It is true that Fleetwood Mac is one of the best-selling bands in the world because they have sold more than 100 million albums worldwide, which is more than these artists: Guns N Roses, Prince, David Bowie, George Strait,...
