Noise Complaint 04/04/11

I just realized that I never posted the playlist from last week. I'm really sorry about that. I don't know what came over me. Hopefully all of the goodies that I'm giving you this week will more than make up for it.


Let's start with Frank Turner. He's put out the first single off his upcoming album "England Keep My Bones." You can download I Am Disappeared RIGHT HERE for free.


If you're looking for more free music, I've got you covered. Epitaph has released a free sampler featuring new songs from a few of their upcoming records. Get it HERE.


Face to Face is back with another song that will be on their upcoming album. By the way, it looks like that album is going to be hitting the stores in May. Listen to It's Not All About You HERE.


Mikey Erg may not have to worry about performing with his band "The Ergs" anymore...because they broke up, but he's still one of the busiest guys in punk rock these days. He sat down with the gang at PunkNews.org to chat a bit. Take a look at the whole interview HERE.

If you've been listening to this show for a while then you know that I am very fond of music videos. I know it's kind of a dying medium since there is no major outlet for them to be seen but I still love them. I think we can all thank youtube for single handedly keeping them alive.

Tonight I bring you one...well...it's more like two in one from the Blacklist Royals. This is "Things They Say/Drive On."

Blacklist Royals - "Things They Say/Drive On" from TCSG on Vimeo.

I was checking up on some punk rock news and I came across a story about Epitaph Records signing a band called LetLive. I'd never heard of them so I figured I'd look them up. I think I'm in love now. You'll hear the song "The Sick, Sick 6.8 Billion" on the show tonight and you can watch the video here.

That photo above is of Nothington at the Fest 8. Why am I posting a photo of Nothington you ask? Because they have an acoustic 7 inch coming out in May. It's going to have 3 new songs as well as a stripped down version of "Not Looking Down."

I feel like I'm in a really good mood today. I hope it spreads across the airwaves and that you have a great night. Here's the playlist for tonight's show...

The Vandals-I'm Becoming You

Dropkick Murphys-Memorial Day

Dag Nasty-Ghosts

Victims of Circumstance-This Riot Used To Be A Party

Noise Complaint 02/07/11

I have one of the worst headaches I have ever experienced in my life right now. The only time my head has hurt more was after my two concussions. I'm going to have to dig up some Advil at some point here. But first, there is a little radio show to deal with.

You all know how I feel about Off With Their Heads at this point. Just in case it hasn't been made clear, I love them. They've released a new video for their song Clear The Air. Take a look below...



Krazy Fest is back! I never thought I'd be able to speak...or type...those words. If you're not familiar with the history of Krazy Fest, it was the biggest and best punk rock festival in America up until it was discontinued back in 2004. The line up is looking pretty damn good and the ticket prices aren't too shabby either. Early bird tickets are going for $75 for a three day pass. To get more details, click the image below.



Now I'm off to find some Advil. Here's the playlist...

Frank Turner-To Absent Friend
The Cute Lepers-No Escape
Adolescents-Amoeba
Oreskaband-Pinocchio
Cobra Skulls-Doomsday Parade
Teenage Bottlerocket-In The Basement
U.K. Subs-Police State
