This week’s most popular stories

Some major tours were announced this past week. Rise Against will hit the road this summer with Rancid for a co-headlining tour of the US and Canada. Winnipeg’s Propagandhi are set to venture into the US with Paint It Black. Murder By Death and Fake Problems will pair up as well. The Gaslight Anthem, following their tour in Europe with Frank Turner and Polar Bear Club, will tour the US with Heartless Bastards and Good Old War. The Warped Tour is still rolling out acts, this week adding Runner Runner, Vanna and Goodnight Anthem.

Bomb The Music Industry has delayed their new album Scrambles until February. Off With Their Heads will release a singles collection soon titled The ’69 Sound. Say Anything discussed their next full length. Green Day are also rumored to be finished recording. No Friends, which features members of Municipal Waste and New Mexican Disaster Squad, posted new songs. Leathermouth, the new project from My Chemical Romance‘s Frank Iero is streaming its new album. This week brought video of Blake Schwarzenbach performing acoustic in Brooklyn, and Lilly Allen covering the Clash‘s “Straight to Hell.” Look for the Gaslight Anthem on Letterman this month. Also keep an eye out for music from Social Distortion, the Sword and Samhain in the new Guitar Hero: Metallica. We also had a report back on the success Dexter Holland of the Offspring has had with his new hot sauce.
