The Official 2012 Warped Tour Compilation CD out June 5th
Music News | May 17th, 2012
Just like the actual Vans Warped Tour, I can count on one hand the bands I know or like. The Warped Tour as evolved into something I don’t really like anymore and the compilation pretty much justifies that feeling. I’m all for checking out new music & bands, so we’ll see what I actually think about this compilation. I’m skeptical as always.
LOS ANGELES, May 17th, 2012 – Every summer close to 1 million punk rockers, emo kids, hardcore fans, metal core kids and a slew of other music lovers brave the heat for the Vans’ Warped Tour. SideOneDummy’s 15th annual Warped Tour Compilation is the soundtrack to the summer, capturing the intensity and diversity of this traveling festival with 50 tracks on two discs. Ranging from fan favorites to obscure rarities and unreleased gems, the compilation kicks off with Rise Against angst filled anthem “Midnight Hands”, and the energy doesn’t let up for more than 140 minutes. The collection features a wide variety of artists that will be playing this year’s punk rock summer camp, such as New Found Glory, Yellowcard, Sleeping With Sirens, Miss May I, Memphis May Fire, Falling In Reverse, The Used, and MORE! For those who can’t make the Warped Tour this year, the compilation gives them a taste of what the tour is all about. However, for the million fans that go, the album serves as a reminder of that perfect summer day.
For the first time in Warped Comp history, there will be two different bands featured on the the cover of the compilation. The first will feature Warped veterans Rise Against, and the other version of the cover will feature Warped Tour fan favorites, All Time Low. SideOneDummy Records intends the two versions to be a nod toward the diverse fan base that attends the tour each summer.
