When Most Precious Blood dropped from the face of the earth back in late 2006, nobody seemed to know what was going on.

No Friends might not be the most inviting band name, but the guys in the band are actually pretty cool dudes and they do happen to write some friggin’ great songs. Not just in No Friends, but in VRGNS, Gatorface and Municipal Waste as well.

Things have been going pretty fast for Cobra Skulls. And it doesn't look like they'll be slowing down anytime soon with them signing to Fat Wreck and having just released another EP called "Bringing The War Home".

Every time Rise Against drops a new album, you know you're in for a treat. And that's once again no different with their new album "Endgame".

One of the better punkrock bands I came across last year was Dear Landlord. Half Rivethead, half Copyrights... they were rocking out severely on "Dream Homes". Check it out if you haven't done so already, it's out now on No Idea Records.

A little while back, No Idea Records dropped “Orphan Works”, an album filled with songs that didn’t find a home on any of the other Samiam albums. Seeing as I’m always a sucker for a good cause, I gave it a good review.

If you haven't heard of these guys yet, you're missing out on a treat! I'm not going to tell you more about it...

Our buddy Ricky from Wrong Way Round recently sat down and talked to Chuck Ragan. We of course immediately leeched it from him. No thanks necessary. There's even some talk about a new Hot Water Music album... consider me psyched!
