When discussing The Story So Far's debut full-length, Under Soil and Dirt, we are coming at it from two completely different worlds. For one of us, this 2011 Pure Noise Records release has been an absolute classic since day one; for the other, it is a brand-new, shiny toy that simply cannot be put down!

With a big headline show coming up, we’ve pushed them up the queue with anticipation. Join us as we dive deep into the record that put the shadow of Mt. Diablo on the map and proved that the story is far from over.

We're saving the world, but losing the girl this week with the debut album from Midtown. Hailing from New Brunswick, New Jersey, they were one of the early breakthrough Drive-Thru Records bands that really helped put the label on the map.

We've got a lot of history with this band, from the shirts we probably should've bought in a few bigger sizes, to one particularly infamous Midtown headline show that Duncan somehow managed to miss with a ticket in his wallet. We spent some money on Midtown, but hey, come on... It's Just Rock and Roll!

Here on The Pod Punk Cast, we're so sick of being tired, and so tired of being sick. The reason why? Taking Back Sunday's debut album Tell All Your Friends. When it arrived on ⁠Victory Records⁠ in 2002, it changed the emo and post-hardcore landscape forever, an instant classic! This was the album we were all so obviously desperate, and desperately obvious for.

Plus, a full recap, as we unpack our recent trip to Montreal for the Warped Tour at Parc Jean-Drapeau!
