A couple weeks back, we presented a show at Lit Lounge NYC that featured All Eyes West, Soul Control, Something About Death or Dying, and Descender. All four bands were amazing and I want to personally thank all of them for playing. Go see them all and buy their records! Thanks to everyone that came out as well.

Here are some photos that Bill Shouldis took at the show.

Beloved Long Island punk band Crime In Stereo will be playing at Generation Records on Tuesday, February 23rd. The in-store is in celebration of the release of I Was Trying To Describe You To Someone, which comes out that day on Bridge Nine Records. The show will start at 7:30 P.M.

The show is free but, as always, entry will be on a first-come, first-serve basis. Get here early, hang out with the band and pick up their new record.

Fox News Boston recently did an interesting piece on straight edge hardcore culture in which they chatted up  Bridge Nine Records‘ Chris Wrenn and Have Heart‘s Patt Flynn. Check it out:

Thanks to Pastepunk for the tip.

Rhode Island’s Verse are back with a blistering new album, Aggression, via Bridge 9 Records.  Our friends over at Punknews (dot) org have an exclusive stream of the whole thing up here.

It’s a great-sounding hardcore record from one of the better bands bringing straight-up hardcore punk to the masses. So check it out, pick it up, and check Verse out when they hit up your town.
