Mike Ness and Social Distortion recently joined us inside the In-N-Out Burger Sound Space in Los Angeles for a special performance, and a conversation with KROQ’s Megan Holiday and Kevin Ryder about their new album, 'Born To Kill,' the frontman’s health, career philosophy, and the early days of the band.

Social Distortion’s new album, 'Born to Kill,' is now available everywhere, and it’s the first from the group in 15 years. Ness explains that the gap was due to a combination of personal crises, including his own cancer diagnosis halfway through recording the album. This health crisis deeply impacted his perspective and his approach to finishing the record, intensifying his focus.

"It really takes something like going through something like this that really makes you realize that, you know. every day above ground is a good day,” Mike admits. “When it was time to come back to the record and finish it, it was time to do vocals, it felt like I was singing like there was no tomorrow."

The album's title track, "Born to Kill," was the song that set the tone for the entire record, serving as the band's "mission statement," according to Ness. “I couldn't deliver a sleeper,” he shares. “I needed to get this out.”

Inside the newly minted In-N-Out Burger Sound Space at KROQ in Los Angeles, Jack Antonoff opened up about his thoughts on the music industry, touring, and the creative process behind Bleachers’ upcoming album, 'everyone for ten minutes,' due out on May 22.

Talking with Klein and Ally, Antonoff detailed his desire to keep music authentic, his fight against high ticket prices, and his unique pre-release ritual for new music. “I listen to every album I made like a few days before,” Antonoff shares. “I listen to every album, and then I'll listen to the new one and then I'll feel in touch with the journey.”

Jack doesn’t feel tempted to make changes after listening to the entirety of his discography, knowing that the studio is a safe space for him. “I don't ever want to change anything,” he says. “I'm filled with regrets in other ways, but not with the music. I think that's why I stay in the studio and stay on tours, that's like the one place where I really like, for lack of a better word, feel myself. Everywhere else is really complicated.”

Antonoff also spoke in-depth about his relationship with his audience, and the importance for him to continue the conversation with the people that get it. Reflecting on the lyric, "only my people can see me," Jack explained that his music is intentionally designed to "sift out anyone who's not gonna get it."

“When the band started the first song I put out was ‘I Wanna Get Better,’ and it was really intentional because I thought to myself, ‘I don't want anyone misgivings about who I am or where this thing is going.’ I remember at the time it was like, ‘oh we should put out ‘Rollercoaster,’ you know, it's such a catchy song,’ and I was like, ‘I love that song, but there's this other song I wrote.’”

“I remember telling this to everyone, ‘I wanna like sift out anyone who's not gonna get it,’ which they thought was maybe a problem, but It's nice to just come forward as who you are,” Jack reveals. “Then you're just on a journey and a conversation with your people and it goes this way and it goes that way, but I'm not ever taking my eye off of them. And it sounds reductive, but if you just do the things that you love and are really authentic about what you do, it's hard to lose sleep at night.”

'everyone for ten minutes' is out everywhere on May 22.

To celebrate the release of their new album, 'Everything Glows,' Cannons stopped by the KROQ Sound Space in Los Angeles for a special performance and an exclusive interview with Kevin Ryder and Megan Holiday.

Cannons describes 'Everything Glows' as their first album that they treated as a "full time job," making the entire process "very intentional, start to finish.”

After rigorous touring to support the 'Heartbeat Highway' album, Michelle Joy took time to tend to her health, including a surgery and recovery, before diving into writing the next album with support from her band. “They made me feel so supported, this album we've grown closer than ever and we understand each other in new ways,” she says, “know how to hold space for each other and bring out the best in each other, and we wouldn't have reached this point in our relationship together without going through the struggles that we went through.”

Check out the full interview above.

'Everything Glows' is now available everywhere. The band’s co-headlining 'Afterglow Tour' with electronic duo, Bob Moses, is also now officially underway. Find a full list of dates at LiveNation.com.
