Welcome back to Weekly Wax!
As has become the norm, some nostalgia-inducing represses from The Starting Line and Angels and Airwaves were announced that are guaranteed to have you singing along and remembering your high school days. A number of exciting new albums were announced as well, with Manchester Orchestra‘s Cope at the forefront. The band’s fourth album will be available as part of a box set that also includes three 7″ singles featuring non-album tracks.
