For a while now, Casey Cole and Peter Lockhart have been cranking out lullaby versions of your favorite pop-punk tunes because… you know, having kids shouldn’t mean you have to stop rocking out come nap-time.

Following the way too early demise of Punch, Meghan O'Neil Pennie was asked to join a new project formed by Snowing’s Justin Renninger and former Dead Seeds member Kevin DeFranco. The band hit the ground running and hasn’t looked back since.

In case you didn’t know it yet, we at PunkRockTheory have something of a man-crush when it comes to The Menzingers.

Back when Deaf Havana was touring on their 2013 album “Old Souls”, it seemed to be smooth sailing for this UK band. But internally, they were experiencing financial problems and a lack of internal communication almost led to them breaking up.

One of the bands you absolutely need to keep an eye out for this year, is Norwegian pop-punk outfit Sløtface. Things have been moving fast for the band ever since they got their start in 2012 under the name Slutface.
