September 18, 2022

Pop-punk band Magnolia Park from Florida just shared another track “Addison Rae”. It follows their latest releases “I Should Have Listened To My Friends” and “Don’t Be Racist“.

Co-vocalist Jot Maxi adds: “There are so many things wrong with the way humanity is. We’re self-destructive and everybody knows it. It’s in a lot of films, especially in science fiction. But that dark future is no longer fiction and it’s very clear that we’re on a downwards path. If I buy a bottle of something to drink, it’s going to be sold in plastic and I’m going to feel guilt about that. Take a look at any city around the world – there’s so much opulence and grandeur on show, but look closely [Read More]
