100 Best Punk & Emo Albums of the 2010s
Like most decades since the 1970s, the 2010s were a great decade for punk rock and its many offshoots. Some of the decade's best punk records were very visible on a large scale, and many of the others took a little more digging, but they were there. It was the decade of the "emo revival," the decade of anti-Trump punk, and the decade where indie rock was often just as inspired by pop punk and emo as it was by other indie rock. New bands tend to catch on when the members are in their late teens and early twenties, and that age group is the one who often discovered underground rock through bands like blink-182, Green Day, Weezer, and their peers, so it makes sense that you heard those bands' sounds resonating throughout the past ten years of underground rock.

Best Phoenix concerts in November 2019: Post Malone, Cher, Luke Combs
Post Malone returns to Arizona just a few months after rocking Pot of Gold like the hip-hop version of a rock star he was born to be in a month that also features Cher's farewell tour, Summer Walker, hip-hop's hottest new band Brockhampton, country superstar Luke Combs and the Black Keys bringing Modest Mouse to town.
Here's a look at those and other concerts for November in the Valley.

Kerrang! sized it up as "a welcome and overdue return," which it is. After easing you in with the opening verse of "Satellite," a song that kicks in with conviction on the chorus, they follow through with such highlights as the piano-driven swagger of "The Problem is Me" and a song about a chance encounter with Lou Barlow.
