Hopefully there's some Authority Zero fans browsing this thread. Their entire van, trailer and all their gear was stolen in San Antonio while on tour. The van/trailer was recovered but it was emptied out of all their stuff. They've got a gofundme setup here: http://www.gofundme.com/zv9dd4

If anyone can throw them a few bucks to help out an awesome ska-punk band from Arizona, I'm sure they would appreicate it.
Didn't this also happen to Streetlight Manifesto?

Either way, always sucks. If I had some spare cash I'd throw some their way, but all I can do is send good vibes that they find their gear.

I’ve been drat busy and not able to do my own little trip reports, but there were a few notable things going on in the last month or so.

6/24: You Blew It! from Florida at a house. Not really my flavor but my buddy wanted to go. I liked the openers Kittyhawk and Ratboys better. Openers were 90s alt-pop flavored, which I get down with when I’m not scoping cool punk bands. You Blew It! was more of a Florida emo-beard type band. They were working hard and people were digging it, and I was respecting their thang, but it just wasn’t my flavor.

7/12: Acoustic Punk house show. Listen to my friend Grandpa Egg, who plays very beautiful outsider folk music. Not punk, but introspective and weird. Listen to my friend JR Fisher, who writes stupendous songs about his life. JR makes me think of Bob Mould a lot. And there was an acoustic version of a band called Blood Sport: The Move, The Band, who were solid as well.

7/13: Murder City Devils with Oscillator Bug and Rabble Rabble. Rabble Rabble is a sick as gently caress psych band that you should look up if you’re into that sort of thing. Their recent LP and the recordings before that are dope, but some of the material they tried out in their slot this night fell flat. Oscillator Bug was more of a weird synthy dance band that wouldn't be a surprise sandwiched between two punk bands at a house show, but also isn't really a pop band or a dance band and won't really fit in anywhere. Murder City Devils were rock solid performers, go figure. The guitarist fell and knocked over his amps in the very first song, and the singer dude kept his shirt tucked the whole time. It rocked pretty hard.

Local release that’s on my mind: the new single from Chicago band Melkbelly.

I’ve been prepping for a move from Chicago to New York, so I’ve missed a lot of good shows. I probably won't be able to make the Radioactivity/Fake Limbs show tonight (assuming it isn't sold out), but that'll be a drat banger. I do have tickets for Screaming Females/Vacation/Al Scorch next week, so I'm highly stoked for that.

As to this move, if anyone can clue me in on actual house shows, warehouse shows, etc, in NYC, please do. I’m sure I’ll see some punks play some bars, but I’m a DIY guy at heart

Okay look. I used to be really into screamo. I went to Cry Me a River fest yearly, I saw Shikari, Louise Cyphre, La Quiete,... Then suddenly I stopped. It's not that I'm no longer interested in it, it's just that I don't know where to get my information from. Also, to be fair I probably grew out of it for the most part. What are good blogs or sites that I can quickly check to see all the new noteabke screamo poo poo?

It's a lot more influenced by punk/early hardcore than their last album.

Anyone seen Drive Like Jehu lately? They're playing a riot fest after show but tickers are like 37 bucks after fees and that's a bit much for a bunch of dudes with one good album they recorded two decades ago.

I saw The World is a Beautiful Place last night. They played well but it was kind of boring. The majority of the crowd were there for them but didn't do a thing to show it. I stuck around to give Pianos Become the Teeth a try but couldn't get into them. All of the openers were good though.

New Propagandhi song got released today called "I am a rifle."

It's okay. Bit more straightforward punk than their recent releases.

Edit: ah it's a cover of a Rebel Spell song to honor the singer of Rebel Spell who died recently.

What are your best punk records so far this year, fellows? I got:

Hop Along: Painted Shut (bit of a stretch calling it punk but whatever)
War on Women: s/t
Jeff Rosenstock: We Cool?
Screaming Females: Rose Mountain
Desparecidos: Payola
High Dive: New Teeth

There are like 5 or 6 more albums that I've loved this year that are not even on the fringes of punk rock but either way I've liked this year a lot for new releases

I would second those Hop Along and Jeff Rosenstock albums and add:

The World is a Beautiful Place - Harmlessness
The Armed - Untitled
Muck - Your Joyous Future

And some that might be debatably punk:
Sleater-Kinney - No Cities to Love
Titus Andronicus - The Most Lamentable Tragedy
METZ - II

This is almost definitely gonna be my album of the year, it's so goddamned good.

I am really liking the new HEALTH album too, but that's probably really fringe for this thread.
