Your New Favorite Band: Miss May I

Your New Favorite Band: Miss May I

For fans of Slayer, Sepultura, and The Devil Wears Prada
October 2, 2024 (October 2, 2024) // Riot Fest

Are your tried and true playlists starting to go stale? In our new series, Your New Favorite Band, our talent team hand-picks new music for YOU, based on the music you currently like.

This month we’re digging into a submission from Michael P., lover of pop punk, metal, metalcore, indie rock, and rock.

But why are we doing this? Because discovering new music is hard. Each month we’ll have picks from our talent team, updates to our playlists, monthly picks, Under The Radar artists from Taylor, and Mo’s selections from RF’s TikTok. That means you should be able to find something to refresh your playlists every single month, so check back often, or sign up for emails!

In addition to all that, we’ll occasionally dip into the submissions, like we’re doing for Michael below, from from fans who are desperate for our expertise.


A few of Michael’s favorite artists are ACDC, Guns N Roses, Slayer, Fall Out Boy, Sum 41, The Offspring. The Riot Fest 2024 lineup was perfect for him!

Based on Michael’s favorite artists and concerts, we’re going to recommend…

Miss May I

If you’re in the Chicago area, check out Miss May I at Bottom Lounge this Friday, October 4th! With support from In Hearts Wake, Traitors, and Bloom, this will be a great show for all metal fans!
