And the day finally arrived! At this day a year ago Messed!Up Magazine went online after months of talking about it and a few more weeks planning for it to happen.

Video interview: Mayday Parade on nostalgia and Halloween costume drama
After last Saturday, I am still pinching myself a little bit. Sure, Mayday Parade has been around since my emo beginnings and the Hot Topic phase that followed but I never listened to them as obsessively as other bands. Now I’m finding myself making up for lost times as here I am, jamming their classic first two albums “A Lesson In Romantics” and “Anywhere But Here” …

Seeing how they’re slowly easing into their role, not yet equipped with blanket statements and practiced responses, and genuinely overwhelmed by how they ended up in their current position. The hype around The Faim and their EP “Summer Is A Curse” last year …
