6 Bands You've Probably Never Heard Of, But Should Totally Start Listening To!

Yvette de Wit

In one of my previous articles, I talked about how I listened to a lot of music last year. Well, it’s a new year and nothing has really changed. I still listen to just as much music, maybe even more so far. Because I listen to so much music, I know a lot of underrated music and bands. Here are some bands that you might not have ever heard of, but you should definitely listen to in 2018!

1. The Head and the Heart

Two of my favorite Coyote Theory songs are "The Art of Understanding" and "This Side of Paradise." These songs never fail to calm me down and put me in a good mood, especially when I’m driving during rush hour.

3. Andrew ApplePie

OK, he’s technically not a band, but he is one of my favorite artists. His music is so cool and I can totally see it playing in the background of a really artsy YouTube video.

4. The Brobecks

Ex-Member of Panic! At the Disco, Dallon Weekes, was the frontrunner of the band and his music was absolutely perfect! He is now in a new band called I Don’t Know How But They Found Me and he is exploring his new style, which I love!

5. Maren Morris

Again, not actually a band but Maren Morris is truly the queen of country music and I am obsessed with her! I’m not the biggest fan of country music but her style is more pop-country than straight-up country. She is definitely one of my new favorites!

6. Oh Wonder

This is another one of those bands that I can listen to and instantly be calmed down and put in a way better mood. I can’t wait to see them on their upcoming tour!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

Seton Hall University

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
