Life of Agony will return with their brand new album titled 'The Sound of Scars,' on October 11th on Napalm Records. It's the band's 6th studio album, and is a concept record continuing the story of the band’s legendary debut River Runs Red. The albums’ release dates are almost exactly 26 years apart, and the story follows the events in real time that took place after the troubled teenager attempted to take his own life on River Runs Red.

Vinnie Caruana has announced new EP 'Aging Frontman', set for release on 4th October via Big Scary Monsters, and released first track 'Better'.

Red Scare Industries will be celebrating their 15th anniversary with the compilation 'Red Scare Industries: 15 Years of Tears and Beers'. It features previously unreleased songs by the label's besties like Brendan Kelly (covering The Lillingtons), Broadway Calls (covering The Menzingers), the first new Sundowner song in years, the first new Lippies song since they reunited, as well as tracks by Sincere Engineer, The Copyrights, Elway, The Bombpops, Tightwire, Ramona, MakeWar, Billy Liar, and more.

Here’s what Toby had to say:

San Diego's Western Settings have just announced their new album 'Another Year,' coming out September 6th on A-F Records and Gunner Records.

Death Cab for Cutie have announced a new five-song EP called 'The Blue EP'. Serving as the follow-up to last year’s Thank You for Today LP, it’s due out September 6th. In a tweet announcing the release, Deatch Cab said the songs “share a similar conception but different births.” 

Fat Wreck Chords and longstanding California punk band LAGWAGON are excited to announce 'RAILER', the band’s ninth full-length album due out on Friday, October 4.

As frontman Joey Cape explains, ‘railer’ is “a funny word from childhood that means ‘silly bad’, like lame” and it captures the sense of throwback that flows through the new album’s 12 songs. That idea of looking to the past was inspired after Cape came up with 'Bubble', RAILER's' first single as well as first song he wrote for the album, and he then just took that idea and ran with it.
