Mark Hoppus Confirms Green Day & Blink-182 Tour Is NOT Happening, Admits It Is A “Good Idea”

Rumors have been swirling all weekend that Green Day and Blink-182 were gearing up to announce a 10-year anniversary edition of their hugely successful Pop Disaster Tour from 2002. We never ran the rumor because, honestly, we couldn’t find a single person to serve as a “source” for this information. Turns out, that was a […]

STREAM: Carly Rae Jepsen – “The Kiss”

Carly Rae Jepsen is following the enormous success of “Call Me Maybe” with the release of her next poptastic single, “The Kiss.” The song is taken from Jepsen’s forthcoming album Kiss, which will also feature “Maybe,” and finds the twenty-six-year-old songstress foraying into the world club-ready dance music.

MUSIC VIDEO: Meech Ft. Mod Sun – “No Chaser”

Up and coming rapper Meech has recruited the king of hippie hop for his latest single, “No Chaser,” and today we have the official music video. The song carries a lighthearted feel, with a very laid back beat that comes complete with harmonica (not kidding). The track is about how both rappers have no desire […]

What The Film!? – Shocker

What The Film?! is a weekly column exclusive to Under The Gun Review that brings to light the plot holes Hollywood hoped you’d never notice. Written by comedy writer Dane Sager, this column shows no mercy to films that try and pull the proverbial wool over our eyes. If you know a film with major plot […]

REVIEW: As I Lay Dying – Awakened

Band: As I Lay Dying Album: Awakened Label: Metal Blade Genre: Metalcore It’s a little bit crazy to think that As I Lay Dying are about to release their sixth album since the band’s inception in 2000; wasting what would appear to be no time at all in the last decade, touring and releasing albums […]

BOX OFFICE RESULTS: September 7-9

Everything is terrible and no one went to the movies. This weekend reported the worst numbers seen since 2008 for this time of year. The Possession held strong atop the charts, but it still dropped 46 percent in revenue from last week. The new film The Words barely clings to life in the number three spot, not even […]

MUSIC VIDEO: Sum 41 – Blood in My Eyes

Canadian punk group Sum 41 released a new music video for their song “Blood In My Eyes” today, and it’s really freaking intense. The video chronicles a girl attempting to hitchhike when she’s picked up by an ill-intentioned car. The video is long and tells a story, so it’s a really engrossing watch. “Blood In […]

REVIEW: Matchbox Twenty – North

Artist: Matchbox Twenty Album: North Genre: Rock Label: Atlantic Records So much of the discourse around Matchbox Twenty seems to focus on their nascent days of fame and how to recapture it that it’s startling. Even for a band that’s so well-known, there’s an alarming emphasis on recognition and achievement and being seen to do […]
