Artist: BOYR!OT

Song: MA!N CHARACTER

Genres: #altpop

Location:  Los Angeles, United States

Release date: May, 2024

Comment: BOYR!OT is a duo from Los Angeles blending 2000s pop-punk with contemporary sounds in a fun and energetic way. If you liked acts like 3OH!3, BOYR!OT will be right up your alley. The self-proclaimed “edgy chaotic queerdos,” Greg Driscoll and Brendan Eprile, make music that connects with those who feel different, advocating for self-worth and defying social pressures.

This is more than evident in “MA!N CHARACTER”, their debut single, which comes accompanied by a vibrant music video (watch it below) that features drummer Jess Goodwin and Constance Antoinette, the touring guitarist for Demi Lovato. I think it showcases the duo’s attitude and effervescent style.

On talent alone, BOYR!OT has what it takes to make it in show business and top some music charts. Hopefully, they’ll also have the luck they need. In the meantime, the bar has been set very high for their follow-up releases. They’ve already proven they know how to write outstanding hooks.

Comment: I’ve managed to secure tickets to see blink-182 live in London next week, and needless to say, my excitement is off the charts. It’s this exhilaration that led me to feature their latest track, “One More Time,” today. It’s safe to say that I haven’t been this thrilled about a new blink-182 song since the release of “I Miss You.” This new track, in my opinion, stands shoulder to shoulder with the classics, especially when you consider the nostalgic elements present in the music video, the lyrics, and the reunion of Tom DeLonge with the band (also, Travis vocals!). I want to acknowledge that Matt Skiba did a commendable job as a replacement, but what truly made blink-182 special was the dynamic trio of Tom, Mark, and Travis.

By the way, they released another new track last night called “Dance With Me,” and it sounds fantastic. I can’t wait for the new album to be released.
