It’s not every day a supergroup, rockers gone pop-stars, and boy band heartthrob all release albums on the same day. Feel blessed to be alive, because that is just what happened today. So what do we think of these releases? Here are our one-liner reviews for five of today’s releases.
DREAMCAR, the new supergroup featuring members of No Doubt and AFI, celebrates the release of their self-titled debut album today.
Take everything you know about the related bands, except good F’n music, throw it all out the window; that’s exactly what you’ve got here.
Four years later, After Laughter follows up Paramore's self-titled release. The release also marks the return of original drummer Zac Farro and first without bassist Jeremy Davis. The band didn’t waste any time though, after announcing the album in late April.
Say goodbye to the rockers we once knew, and say hello to the Top 40’s newest overplayed bandwagon act.

The rap-rock album you would expect, with a new take on old rap topics.
Tuscaloosa, AL’s Gideon released Cold, the follow-up to Calloused (2014), which earned the band impressive Billboard Charting including: No. 4 Hard Rock Album, No. 5 Christian Album, No. 15 Independent Album, No. 21 Top Rock Album and No. 74 Top Current.
Turn it up loud, put on your moshing shorts, and get reminded that you’re not alone in your anger and imperfections.
Following Harry Styles' five-year stint with English-Irish boy band One Direction, it was announced the band was going on an extended hiatus, which further ignited rumors of the band's permanent disbandment. In June, it was confirmed that Styles had signed a solo recording contract. And today, Styles releases his first solo venture.
A homage to musical idols; rather than a solo debut, leaving us thinking: “We get it, you’re really talented but can you do this on your own?”
