Sydney rockers Tonight Alive have been pleasing both screaming emos and pop-punk fans since 2008. Frontwoman Jenna McDougall is a dynamo who digs deep, delivering a kiss-off over galloping drums and serious shredding on 2013's “Lonely Girl” and soundtracking Peter Parker's angst a year later with the amped-up drama of “The Edge,” from The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The band's range is impressive—they administer a jolt of alt-rock electricity to Mumford & Sons' folky “Little Lion Man” and skillfully investigate the blurred lines between love and friendship on “The Other Side,” alternating reflective verses with driving choruses.
