Various Artists Red Scare Industries: 10 Years Of Your Dumb Bullshit It’s hard to believe that Red Scare Industries has already been around for 10 years, but here we are with their 10 Years Of Your Dumb Bullshit compilation, featuring 17 new songs by some of their favorite roster bands throughout the past decade. Some of […]

Moral Mazes Magic Tommy Jackson EP Any band featuring noted indie producer and former Jawbox guitarist/vocalist J. Robbins, as well as former Kerosene 454 drumming phenom Darren Zentek, will immediately raise some eyebrows for those who are familiar with the Dischord Records back catalog. The pair did it in 2011 with Office Of Future Plans, […]

The Holy Mess Comfort In The Discord Although they’ve hovered on the fringes of the gruff-punk scene so far, Philadelphia's the Holy Mess deserve more attention—and Comfort In The Discord, their latest album in an increasingly long line of releases, should be the one to get it for them.

Not only have they stayed true to their roots, delivering album after album of high-quality, breakdown-heavy hardcore, they’ve also served as mentors for the next generation of windmill-friendly […]

The quartet returned to the Blasting Room studio in Fort Collins, Colorado, with producers Bill Stevenson and Jason Livermore and began the process of writing […]
