From the bands announced to date, what are the top 5 bands you are looking forward to seeing the most this summer? Take the survey.

Super Water Sympathy’s latest music video, “Slade Was Made,” launched last Friday (2/10) in wake of the group’s upcoming performances on the Vans Warped Tour this July. It’s definitely worth getting excited about. In a recent interview Kevin Lyman, founder of the Warped Tour, had this to say about the new indie/rock outfit: “Since seeing them play I must have played the record for 30 people this week, to see if I was crazy to think they were so good. I was not.”

Pre-sale registration available now for your first crack at 2012 tickets. These are the limited edition, 3D commemorative tickets which also serve as a jump the line pass. Available while supplies last on March 30th at 10am local time. Register now mailing list
