Coming off their gold-certified Define The Great Line disc, UNDERØATH–who’ve built their career on being both heavy and experimental–return September 2 with the succinct and resolute LOST IN THE SOUND OF SEPARATION, their fourth album on Seattle’s Tooth & Nail/Solid State Records.
CAW! CAW! specializes in cosmic pop songs for space explorers, time travelers, pill-popping lovers, miniature golfers and teenagers making out. New EP set for release in September. “…a guitar-driven sound and tense vocals, akin to a harder version of Radiohead.†– The Daily Iowan
Billy Ray Cyrus was recently in Tarzana, California to film the music video for his newly released single, “Somebody Said A Prayer.†The video is directed by Roman White and includes a cameo by Billy Ray’s son Trace, lead guitarist for the band Metro Station.
The Gaslight Anthem’s new album “The ’59 Sound” entered the Billboard Top 200 chart this week with a debut at #70. The band is currently in the UK playing a string of shows following their Reading and Leeds performances. Their fall U.S. tour consists of Co-Headlining shows with American Steel and a support slot on the Rise Against, Alkaline Trio & Thrice tour.
This zine is pretty far off from the ones that I usually pick out. Not personal at all, the zine reads like a more serious version of READ magazine, with a number of political pieces (Arnold being governor, Solar housing, Palestine vs. Israel US spending), while throwing some other random pieces, including writing to McDonalds and reviewing Nickled and Dimed by Barbera Ehrenreich.

Tape Op is one of those zines that really have a double life, informing individuals through letters and interviews but also through the ample advertisements that find their way into the magazine. What seems to be the best thing about Tape op is that interested individuals that are in the field can get a free subscription. I do not honestly know where individuals would have to pay $4.50 for a…
Freshkills – yes, one word – are a five-piece tour guide to the lives, awkward conversations and head games that play out deep into the night in New York City’s dark bars and messy bedrooms. Each protagonist is motivated by sordid appetites, like moths attracted to blackness. Each song has the sound and feel of a mini-apocalypse.
