March 11th, 2007

It's Sunday March 11th, 2007. To the jet stream has been kind to us and we're finally starting to see the snow melt up here in North Org'ville. I tell ya, after a month or so of arctic air a high of 2 degrees celsius is reason to party. We creep just above the freezing point and suddenly everyone's naked. You folks down in the warmer zones will never understand.

The people must have something good to read on a Sunday

Bad news all around in the mainstream pop-punk realm. It came to light that Fall Out Boy lifted lyrics from celebrated hardcore act American Nightmare / Give Up The Ghost. GUTG vocalist Wes Eisold settled out of court with multi-platinum act. A courtroom is where Good Charlotte's Joel Madden may find himself, as the frontman was accused of battering a woman this week. Hawthorne Heights is at least having some luck in the legal realm, as a judge ruled in their favor in one part of their war with Victory. Nothing particularly dramatic happened to Panic! At The Disco, but they did try their hand at controversy with a "mature" rated video. Allister? Heck they just sat the whole thing out.

Against Me! announced a major tour this year with Mastodon and Cursive among others. Band frontman Tom Gabel also spoke with the National Post the band's upcoming New Wave. The Beastie Boys announced a new record this summer, a return to action that Adam Yauch says will feature more live instruments than their previous. Yauch's also in the producer's chair on the new Bad Brains record, but you knew that. There's trouble in Denmark as members of Level Plane act Graf Orlock as well as Comadre were arrested for, essentially, "looking punk." This crazy week brought you a new studio journal from favorites Strung Out, a new video from Lifetime, and a good ol' "Top X albums" list for music nerds to rip apart.

We brought you a lots of new streams this week, including selections from the Pop Punk's Not Dead compilation, music from South Korea's the Geeks, the split from Leftover Crack and Citizen Fish, Chris McCaughan's new project Sundowner, and anticipated new music from Hot Rod Circuit. Our MP3 Of The Week introduced you to the Chinese Telephones and brought you an old favorite from the Dismemberment Plan, while our Video Of The Week featured Against Me!' performing a new song in Richmond.
