Rise Against has decided to sell their 2009 release Appeal To Reason for 5$ for the next few days through Amazon. Good deal, if you ask me.

Apparently Dead And Divine have been up to a whole bunch. Shows, videos, Wizards...read it yourself.

Farewell To Freeway's drummer, Rich, has parted ways with his compadres. Posted a fairwell for y'all. They also recently recorded a Metric cover, "Gimme Sympathy". Listen up.

Polar Bear Club put up a live video of "Light Of Local Eyes" earlier this month.

Greg and Shanti from Bouncing Souls are playing some acoustic shows on the west coast with Kevin Seconds (of 7 Seconds). Pretty exciting.

10 Years Strong!


Get ready. Hold on to your hats, ladies and gentlemen, for this news will change your 2010 forever...

Evergreen Terrace is coming up on their 10 Year anniversary, and so they are getting to gether with some friends, Bane for example, to play a couple shows on the 15th and 16th of January, in South Carolina, and in Jacksonville Florida. They will also be playing with STRETCH ARM STRONG, who are dusting it off for one last go in 2010. This is monumental, since Stretch Arm Strong, a true positive hardcore institution, have been MIA since 2007. This is said to be their LAST SHOW. Though it is in the deep south, it is worth the journey. Make it out and support.


Continuance has signed with RISE Records (congrats, gents) and have announced that their much anticipated full legth will grace our ears in Spring of '10. Voila.

Oceans' The Great Divide has been nominated in the Hamilton Spectator for Best Emo/Screamo Album of 2009, along with other Canadian acts such as Alexisonfire (Old Crows/Young Cardinals), Dead And Divine (The Machines We Are), and Straight Reads The Line (The Author). Top notch, boys.


Crime In Stereo's new full length, entitled I Was Trying To Describe You To Someone, is going to be out on Bridge 9 on February 23, 2010. In their latest post, CIS describes it as "light-years better than anything we've ever written before". Recorded with the help of Mike Sapone (Brand New - The Devil And God, Crime In Stereo - Is Dead). High hopes for this one.

Signs Of Hope will be playing Hamilton on the 26th and 28th of November before going on to tour the East Coast and then moving down to the States for a while. Catch 'em while you can.


Haste The Day is going to be in Grand Rapids, at the Orbit Room, on November 21 with All That Remains, The Devil Wears Prada, and Story Of The Year.

Brothers is going to be playing in Grand Rapids, November 21st, at Mulligans with Victor Fix The Sun, and Cain Marko
