NOTHING LESS THAN BEST
We love new labels. Especially ones that put out sick singles for bands that we like. A new label sprung up recently down in Florida called Total Punk. As you might expect, it’s for the punks only. They announced their first batch of singles [which you should start to see in the next month] and…

GOTTA BE ONE TO MAKE ONE
Thank you Light In The Attic Records. This newly reissued Vagrants LP is killing us right now. We’ve been fans for a bit but haven’t ever been able to score a physical copy of any Vagrants material, so this is definitely quenching that for us. For a little background — The Vagrants were a band…

WHITE WIRES BEACH
One of the bands we caught down in Austin that we hadn’t seen before but had listened to plenty was White Wires. They definitely outdid our expectations [Not saying that in a like “We weren’t expecting it to be good” kind of way, more just like a “Man, I was expecting that to rule, but…
AUSSIE GOLD
UV Race, who you know are some of our favorites, just had their new LP released via In The Red [The label that did their first release, Aarght! Records, will be handling the Aussie release] Well, we guess it’s not exactly new, but you know. Homo was originally released by the band on cassette a…

BACK TO THOSE DAYS
One of the best times we had in Austin this last week was getting to see and hang out with our favorite Paperhead boys. Believe us when we say that they definitely still kill it live, and get stoked for June. Today’s the day that their debut LP sees release from our buddees at Trouble…

DETROIT WEIRDNESS
Been a minute since there was a show at Danzig’s [last one was in mid-February before Cheap Time left for tour] This one’s gonna be pretty killer though. A couple of our favorite Detroitians, Human Eye and Terrible Twos, are rolling through on their ways back from SXSW along with our Canadian brothers, Dead Ghosts….

BEST IN THE MIDWEST
One of our favorite singles is getting reissue treatment next week from the dudes at Family Vineyard. Dow Jones and The Industrials hailed from West Lafayette, Indiana in the late 70s and early 80s and are probably the best thing to ever come from that city. They only ever had two releases to their name…
