From L.S. Dunes and Lamb Of God to GEL and GWAR, here’s what went down at Chicago’s legendary annual takeover of all things punk, metal and alternative…
Listen to The Armed’s brand-new single Everything’s Glitter, which “uses Bowie’s famed first U.S. appearance in 1971 for a three-week press tour as a framing device to consider the razor’s edge between icon and clown”.
Following on from last month’s Sport Of Form, The Armed are back with another new single.
This one goes by the name Everything’s Glitter, and it’s an absolutely massive peek at what’s to come from the collective’s upcoming album Perfect Saviours (which is due out on August 25).

“Perhaps fittingly, it’s also the closest thing we’ve made to an arena rock song.”
