(Hitler learns he’s not on Grey Area’s guest list…I found this while looking for Grey Area on youtube. I love the internet.) Yesterday was completely ridiculous. After heading to the Philly’s piazza to watch a free Newfound Glory show (I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many fights break out), then Philly’s shit show “Makeout […]

If there is one band that always manages to surprise the hell out of me, it’s Fucked Up. I remember listening to their demo and Epic in Minutes back when it came out and thinking they were pretty solid hardcore band, but not the messiahs of hardcore many were touting them to be. Now ten […]

If I can sum up Dangers “Messy Isn’t It” in one word, it would be ‘uneasy’. Just looking at the album art should give an impression as to what to expect: raw and challenging. The album opens immediately challenging the listener “why didn’t you kill yourself today…Prove to me that the air you breathe wasn’t […]

Like a gang-bang porn, sometimes 4 artists come together to create something incredibly beautiful. When I heard that Black Numbers was releasing a 4 way split between Grey Area, The Reveling, The Copyrights, and Luther, the word anticipation would be an understatement. Shit, I would have picked this up for the two Grey Area tracks […]

So you’ve probably heard about the whole SOPA/PIPA mess going on. It’s gotten bad enough to the point where major companies like google and craigslist are taking a stand on it. Pretty much, imagine if you’re grandparents tried to “fix” the internet. It’s sort of like that. And YOU can make a difference. What is […]

Originally hailing from NJ, I’ve been a Bigwig fan for a VERY long time, yet I realized that I haven’t posted one of my favorite albums by them. In the interest of not failing my home state (and by consequence, not having defender of NJ Danny Devito come by and kick me in the balls), […]

Atlanta’s The Wild have been getting a lot of press as of late. I never got to check out any of their albums, but I am loving their split with Run Forever. The split starts with the folksy ballad “Street Names” and the incredibly catchy harmonica driven, dual male/female vocals of “To Be Content”. Besides […]

Brooklyn NY. Usually associated with hipsters, mobsters telling you “fuhgeddaboutit”, and now one of the most solid new melodic hardcore bands I’ve heard in a while. Man The Change released their either incredibly long or incredibly short 8 song “Weather The Storm” last year, and I’ve been listening to it nonstop as of late. Pulling […]

Man, it felt like this show would never come. Buying tickets for a friend and I back in October (which immediately sold out), it’s been a long wait, but I finally got to see Lifetime again on Sunday in the First Unitarian Church. I’ve been listening to these guys forever, but I didn’t really start […]

I figured you were all so busy reading other lists, that once we were a week into 2012, you’d be suffering list withdrawal and BAM, housewives have the crack you need. That’s how we roll. What a year in punk music. I got a chance to see Kid Dynamite and American Nightmare again, was at […]
