Reasons for attending this gig: 1) Been meaning to check out Fake Problems on both plastic and in flesh for over 1 year. Double fail, to date. 2) One of only a few left at the semi-legendary Manhattan Knitting Factory location, before they up sticks and move (like everything else NYC musically-inclined) to Williamsburg. 3) The Riverboat Gamblers singer is several screwdrivers short [...]

It's not every day you come across an Indie/Thrash band but that's exactly what the band Fake Problems are and they're back with another studio album entitled It's Great To Be Alive . The energy and raw sound that Fake Problems seem to easily come up with is what makes them what they are - an awesome band that fills that empty indie/thrash space in your CD rack. A lot of the music I listen to only sounds good when you're in a particular mood, but when Fake Problems come up [...]

So Punxsy Phil predicts a long winter and the weatherman forecasts some snow for the Mid-Atlantic. Welcome to February! On a positive note, plenty of big names and quite a few locals are on the scene during the mid-week. Tuesday Where to start? Usually you have a list of bands like this on the weekend, but you take them when you can get them. DC is the place to be with four great shows. Photo from [...]
This year saw The Gaslight Anthem break through and capture hearts everywhere, ours included , and we're predicting that 2009 will see Fake Problems appointed the next great important punk band, accomplishing the same feat. (Coincidentally enough, both happen to lead the rejuvenated SideOneDummy roster.) While Gaslight's The '59 Sound wore its Springsteen influences on its sleeve, the Naples, FL band's upcoming It's Great To Be Alive is looser, angrier and less pristine, akin to pre-MTV Against Me! Check out the first single from [...]

Fake Problems - To Repel Ghosts There's no getting around it, Florida is a strange place. Maybe it's the sun, maybe it's all the oranges, but something freaks me out about people who can walk around and act like a bunch of alligators in their back yard isn't a big deal. And then that's not even getting to the elections--they just can't seem to get through one without mucking something up. And I'm not just talking about 2000--heck there was craziness in '06 just North of where this band, Fake Problems hail from. Sheesh. Anyway, my point is, for...
