CD Review
Counter Launch: “Slasher Film Double Feature”
Counter Launch Slasher Film Double Feature Unsigned 8.5 Ok. So the second song is called “Man That’s Some Evil Piss”. So don’t expect Shakespeare. But it also isn’t an album of mindless drivel. There is mucho depth and quality. I checked out the web site at counterlaunchmusic.com while listening to the tracks. Two things stuck out to me: Counter Launch is changing [Continue]

- Free MP3: The Biters - "Hang Around" July 29, 2010In 2007 and 2008, we were all about the Heart Attacks, a punky glam trash outfit on TKO records. They toured on Hellcat Records. We caught them as part of the Hellcat Records tour, where they ripped it up with their trashy glam punk, and made a point to catch their set at SXSW in 2008. Then they kind of slipped off the map, with an official status in that gr […]
- The Devil Wears Prada Unveils a Comic Book and (Hopefully) a New Musical Trend July 28, 2010On August 24, The Devil Wears Prada will be releasing the wonderfully intense Zombie EP (we have a full review of the Zombie EP here), and now the band has announced that they are upping the stakes by releasing a limited edition version with an official comic book. The comic book presents the band as zombie-fighting crime fighters, and if it's anything […]
- Fugazi Preparing to Offer Their Complete Live Archive Online July 27, 2010While Fugazi may be on official hiatus, it doesn't mean that you can't see some live videos of them performing soon. A lot of them. Guitarist Guy Picciotto recently told fan site World of Fugazi (link) that the band has spent several months converting their complete archive of live performances for digital download, stating "we are not that fa […]
- The Vaselines Announce North American Tour Dates July 26, 2010A little while back, we mentioned that the Vaselines were recording a new album, Sex With An X, due out September 14. Well, some of the best news I'd heard this year got even better with the announcements that the duo is also planning on touring North America in October. This represents one of those things that I never dared hope for. To be honest, I ne […]
- Do Mohawks Represent an Occupational Hazard? July 23, 2010Now I've heard of people with mohawks or punk hairstyles getting canned because their 'dos violated the dress code at their place of work, but this is the first time I've heard of it happening out of fear that it presented a danger to their coworkers - and this may be the first time that it happened, being that the story dates back to 1983....

- Free MP3: The Mighty Stef - “Thank Christ For The Kids” July 22, 2010Regular readers of this site know that we have mad love for Stef Murphy aka The Mighty Stef. An Irish musician that's equal parts Joey Ramone and Neil Diamond, his latest release 100 Midnights was an incredible album that you should probably own, we've watched him tear it up opening for Flogging Molly and in a small club with the Tossers, and his S […]
