![Various Artists - [Album]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2200404_lg.jpg)
ARTIST: Various Artists - [Album] with free mp3 downloads for songs by NoFX, Rise Against, Anti-Flag, Flatliners, Against Me! and The Dickies. DATE: 12-16-09 REVIEW BY: Bill Adams It's hard to believe that it's been nineteen years since NoFX released The P.M.R.C. Can Suck On This (the second time) and, even at that, who could have known what it would lead to? That six-song 7" (which boasted a photo collage of Tammy Fay Bakker pegging then-husband and televangelist Jim Bakker [view [...]
On the seventh day of Christmas my true love gave to me, seven swans a-swimming... and a whole bunch of Christmas MP3's. I mean, who can resist Christmas songs by the artists below? If I had anything else witty or clever to write I would do so right here, but I don't so this is what you're getting. Do the Bears suck this year or what?

Filed under: The Hit List They wanna rock 'n' roll all night -- and study every day. These rock stars by trade are also professors, scientists, authors, techies and, most of all, nerds by design. From past pioneers to today's trailblazers, guitars and geeks go together like eyeglasses and tape. Back by popular demand, from your comments to our ears, it's Revenge of the Rock Nerds Part 2. Henry Rollins [...]
It's been twenty years since Allroy's Revenge, the first record from the Descendents side project ALL which featured vocalist Scott Reynolds, so we guess it's a pretty rad occasion, especially since we just caught wind in our inbox that the...
Filed under: News , R.I.P. Legendary punk rock drummer Chuck Biscuits died Saturday, Oct. 24, after a battle with throat cancer. Biscuits, who got his start with Vancouver's D.O.A. in 1978 at the age of 13 and played with Black Flag , Circle Jerks , Danzig and Social Distortion , was 44 years old. "In response to the inquiries, thank you for all the support," an anonymous family member wrote in an e-mail sent to fans early Wednesday. "Chuck did not survive his [...]

Make no mistake about me, I was a dedicated pop-punk fan throughout my days, and still hold dear to many of those mainstays. Sure, I'm more likely to get into Descendents as opposed to all the new stuff, but even some of the new stuff gets me. Motion City Soundtrack is one of those bands, and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do on their new album My Dinosaur Life. This track is just the beginning. Download: Motion [...]

Happy Friday, ZME readers. We know there are a ton of music websites you could be choosing to burn your time on while you should be entering data, emailing clients, or for the funemployed of you, watching some high quality porn. So, we appreciate that you've chosen us. Today, I'd like to present my breakdown of the Descendent's earth-shattering 1982 debut LP, Milo Goes to College . I can't overstate the importance of this album in both the spectrum of punk and self-acribed "geek" culture. The game-changing nature of these 15 [...]
Number 5 of the Pop Punk Junk series is awesome. Sicko, The Ergs!, my favorite Descendents song, and even the often overlooked Hagfish, how could you go wrong? I remember when Amy bought the Hagfish record on vinyl at Missing Link Records in Indianapolis back in '98. That store (like so many other great record stores) is now closed. Those were the days... MP3 | Descendents - Suburban Home from the 1982 album Milo Goes To [...]
It's somewhat ironic to consider anything as harsh as Black Flag or The Jesus Lizard "refreshing," but that was the first thought that raced to my mind when "False Jesii Part 2," the opening track on King of Jeans came blasting out of my headphones.

Every pop-punk band worth their wait in salt sugar has got to have a couple of songs about the opposite sex. Though some bands traffic exclusively in the topic, even bands like Bad Religion and NOFX have been known to get into the act. Rancid's biggest commercial single was "Ruby Soho," a ska-punk hit that was right on topic. And before Green Day got political, their first few albums were almost exclusively mired in pop-punk longing. If there was one band that wrote the book on pop-punk, it was the Descendents, who shot out of Manhattan [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News The coffee punk troupe ALL treated their hometown loyalists to a trio of cult-themed shows with former crooner Scott Reynolds rejoining the group for the limited engagement. While the band's Website noted that current frontman Chad Price hasn't left the band, he did turn the mic over to Reynolds for this mini tour. Kicking it off in San Diego on Friday with the recently reunited Big Drill Car, the bands crept up the coast stopping in Anaheim and wrapping it ALL [...]
On the surface, We Be Xuxa almost seems like a retread of old school American punk, but actually it evokes without constant copying—it's fresh-faced punk, yet my heart hears Born Innocent -era Redd Kross in their sisterly choruses, and early early Black Flag or even Ramones in their strumming (minus Greg Ginn's noodling) and Wipers downturns on the chords, and a Darby Crash-like insistence on writing lyrics too self-referential and profound to sing straight into the microphone. And there's even a Urinals cover!?! And there's a Beach Blvd -esque melodicism to Jessie Clavin's bass [...]

so far i've had the best tacos of my life , saw an engagement and a yankees walk-off. when you get to my age, it's the little things in life that matter. Descendents "My Age"

Notes From Middle America is contributor Danny R. Phillips' monthly column. You can read past installments here . I have to ask. What happened to rock? Has it become passé or uncool for a band to struggle, tour, play shows night after night to build a fan base without the help of excessive internet buzz or douche bags in the "hip" magazines who supposedly have their fingers on the pulse of the American youth culture? If a band has to work hard to get what they have, is that far less important [...]

Superdrag has a new album, Industry Giants , which comes out tomorrow. And not only did the band allow Buzzgrinder to stream it , but John Davis was also kind enough to take over the posting duties for the day. So the staff gets to sit at home and eat bon bons. Surely The Minutemen will never be forgotten, but when asked to contribute an entry for the Remember… column, they were the first band that came to mind. I can remember very clearly the [...]

And now, the conclusion of our extensive recap of last week's Harvest of Hope . If you missed day one, you can find it here . And don't forget to check back in the upcoming weeks for interviews with The Gaslight Anthem, None More Black, The Casting Out and Against Me!
