You’re not imagining it — the 2000s are back.

In a single week, The All-American Rejects, The Starting Line, and Yellowcard each dropped new music.

The All-American Rejects unleashed “Easy Come, Easy Go”, a sleazy, alt-pop banger with arena-sized hooks and Tyson Ritter at his best ever. It’s raw, confident, and possibly the heaviest track they’ve released yet. The single follows the recent announcement of their upcoming fifth studio album, which will mark their first full-length release since 2012’s Kids in the Street.

The Starting Line have officially returned with “Sense of Humor,” a track that delivers the pop-punk-meets-pop-rock charm fans have come to expect — but with a matured edge. Sonically, it feels like a natural evolution from their 2007 album Direction and their 2016 EP Anyways, capturing the warmth and emotional honesty of both while stepping confidently into a new chapter.

What makes this release even more remarkable is the gap: among the recent wave of returning scene staples — including Yellowcard and The All-American Rejects — The Starting Line had the longest silence between albums, making this comeback track feel especially rewarding. It’s not just a return — it’s a reminder that they never truly lost it.
