According to our source, All Time Low will be touring in the Spring with Man Overboard as direct support. Handguns will be splitting the opening slot with Mixtapes. It’ll most likely be a B-market tour (smaller cities) so there’s a possibility ATL are playing Warped Tour. Dates/venues TBA
UPDATE: We’ve received word that Mixtapes turned down this tour in favor of another. No word on who ATL got to replace them

Pop punk seems to be one of the newer genre bandwagons that bands tend to jump on nowadays. But now you can start your own pop punk band with these easy tips!
1. Write about how bad it sucks to be in the friend zone
As one of the comments said, “they should’ve recorded this in a key a half step down from this. he’d have hit the notes much better. he just yelling most of the time now to hit his notes and it doesn’t fit this song too well.”
2. Take your band name from a better and bigger pop punk band
Clearly, they borrowed their name from the New Found Glory song of the same name. Which brings me to my next point..
Man Overboard; the only studio track on blink-182’s live album, The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show.Obviously, other bands have taken their names from songs titles/lyrics of popular bands, but it seems to be more prevalent in the tr00 pop punk scene.
3. Describe your personal life in a song; where you live, what you eat, etc.
The Wonder Years do a damn good job at it as evident in the above song. The lyrics speak for themselves:
The casino seemed like a bad idea but Denny’s seemed like a worse one and I don’t think that we’d ever let that stop us. We ended up busted, broken and choking down a Grand Slam. I can’t think of a better way for the night to end cause we’re this generation’s Outsiders but we’ve got worse intentions and they’ve got better haircuts
4. If you love your friends, by all means, tell the world
Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! (who got their name from The Goonies) REALLY love their bro’s. So much, that they wrote a song about it. They also have a songs about MILF’s, but we’ll save that for another time. Did I mention they’re French?!
5. Plaid shirts and V-Necks are a necessity!
You wanna be dressed your Sunday best when your friend borrows his dad’s expensive camera to film your band’s first music video. It also helps if you can find some nice shirts at the thrift store or borrow some from a friend.
Check out this message from the band for all the details:
While we were recording the Self-Titled album in 2011 we decided that this song would not be making the album. We finished the music but did not track the vocals. We recently recorded the vocals but before we release it for you to hear we want to offer everyone a unique opportunity. We want you to download the instrumental version from the widget below, write and record your own lyrics and melody and submit it back to us. We will pick one winner and their version, along with ours will be available for free download from www.altpress.com.

"Every year we curate the Lost Tape Collective holiday show. We try to comprise the show of bands that are friends, tour mates and bands we enjoy and support. We spent the summer on Warped Tour with Alan Day and I Am The Avalanche… Seahaven was on our headline tour in February and Daylight + Citizen are old buds so its going to be a great night of friendship and hangouts…. we hope everyone with an interest in these bands can make it out to the show!… we will be announcing a special guest and final act fairly soon"
