The People Must Have Something Good To Read On A Sunday
This week's most popular stories
Our attention turned to the mainstream pop punk world this week. The long coming reunion of
Blink-182 is most certainly
happening. The band is planning a summer album and will doubtlessly be back on the road soon. Tom Delonge has also confirmed that his post-Blink act
Angels and Airwaves will
continue as well.
Green Day broke the news that their new record would be titled
21st Century Breakdown. The band unveiled the
art and began discussing the record, making several bold statements to
Rolling Stone on the album's ambitious direction.
Outside the spotlight but no less newsworthy `round here, Punknews favourites
Teenage Bottlerocket announced that they had
signed to Fat Wreck.
This week also the
Lower Class Brats comment on a shooting at a recent
show in San Antonio, TX.
Propagandhi has offered two
advance songs from their new record in exchange for charitable donations. Revelaton Records is working on an
anniversary compilation featurin bands like
Sick of It All,
Terror,
Ignite, and
Death By Stereo. Mirroring a recent April Fools joke we made, the
Gaslight Anthem will be opening for their hero
Bruce Springsteen at the UK's
Hard Rock Calling 2009.
Pennywise and
Pepper will also
hit the road together.
This busy week also saw the
breakup of
Verse, the pending bankruptcy of
