Yellowcard: Pop-Punk Legends With a Violin Twist
Yellowcard rose to stardom in the early 2000s with their iconic album Ocean Avenue, a record that not only went platinum but became a cultural touchstone. They’re one of the few pop-punk bands to feature a violin as a signature sound, and that innovation helped them carve a lasting legacy.
After disbanding in 2017, Yellowcard reunited in 2022 and have since embarked on a global resurgence. Now, they’re back with a vengeance—and a brand new album.
🔥 New Album Alert: Better Days
Due out October 10, 2025, via Better Noise Music, Better Days is Yellowcard’s first full-length album in nearly a decade. Produced and executive produced by Travis Barker (who also drums on every track), this album is poised to inject new energy into their legendary catalog.
“This album is the heart of everything we’ve lived through in the past decade,” the band stated.
