Fun After Dark With MAGNOLIA PARK

Fun After Dark With MAGNOLIA PARK

Author: HEAVY Magazine March 3, 2026 Duration: 10:41
Since forming in Orlando, FL in 2018, Magnolia Park - vocalist Joshua Roberts, guitarists Tristan Torres and Freddie Criales, drummer Joe Horsham and bassist Vincent Ernst - have repeatedly proven themselves to be one of the most exciting and forward-thinking groups in the underground. Spinning a chameleonic, genre-spanning sound that incorporates punk, hard rock, hip-hop and metalcore into a dizzying, multi-sensory experience, the prolific band has dropped a mixtape, 4 EP’s, a slew of singles and two full length albums totalling an impressive 510 Million catalog streams to date.
The heavy genre-bending five-piece have announced NIGHTS AFTER VAMP, the deluxe version of their ambitious concept album VAMP released last year. Out on March 13 via Epitaph, the band picks up where they left off with six explosive bonus tracks that expand the soundscape of their dystopian universe.
With NIGHTS AFTER VAMP, Magnolia Park have spun an electrifying mix of hard rock, punk, nu-metal, hip-hop and metalcore into a dizzying, multi-sensory experience. Throughout its 17 songs, the record soundtracks an ominous journey through the fictional world of Nocturne Nexus; where rulers and rebels battle with the future hanging in the balance. Heavily inspired by the band’s love of anime, horror and fantasy, the album’s narrative was spurred by the long-running Vampire Hunter D, iconic works like Star Wars, Dracula and Joseph Campbell’s legendary monomyth.
Magnolia Park will be in Australia this March supporting BABYMETAL, so to bring us up to speed HEAVY sat down for a chat with the whole band.
