When We Were Young Recap, Sick New World, Hardcore's Latest It-Band(s?) & more

On this week's episode of BV Weekly, Dave and Andrew are joined by Alternative Press editor-in-chief Anna Zanes to discuss highlights of last weekend's When We Were Young festival (00:59), which Andrew and Anna both attended and did several backstage interviews at. Topics include but are not limited to blink-182, Avril Lavigne, Taking Back Sunday, Bad Religion, Drain, Knocked Loose, and, of course, nostalgia. After that, Dave and Andrew dissect the just-announced Sick New World lineups (33:53); recap some of this week's news; and look at new music from Speed, Parts Work (a new project from Hop Along's Frances Quinlan), Angel Du$t, The Acacia Strain, Spiritual Cramp, and more (53:23).
