When singer/guitarist Barrie Cadogan wasn’t busy playing shows with Morrissey, Paul Weller or Primal Scream, he was working on new material for his own band, Little Barrie.

After four full-lengths on Victory, The Audition’s new EP really does mark a new chapter for the band.

Static Radio NJ was already a great band when they were tossing their Lifetime and Kid Dynamite influences around like it was nothing, but they have truly exceeded themselves on “We Are All Beasts”

Chicago-based Celtic punk band Flatfoot 56 is back.

Nada Surf is one of those bands that never disappoints and even if album number seven for these New Yorkers would’ve sucked, they still would’ve gotten a prize for best album title.

Band Of Skulls are back with the follow-up to “Baby Darling Doll Face Honey”. The new album is called “Sweet Sour” and you’ll find that things haven’t changed all that much.

Four years after the release of “The Lost Broken Bones”, these yarmulke-wearing punkrockers  are back with a new album called “Symptoms”.

“More Buddies, More Fun” is a 4-song EP that was previously available in Europe but never got a proper US release, something that will be rectified next month by Paper + Plastick.

Last year the Dropkick Murphys added another solid album to their back catalog with “Going Out In Style”.

Silversun Pickups are something of an acquired taste.
