Fat Wreck Chords Announces Reissue Project

Fat Wreck Chords has announced plans to reissue albums from their back catalogue on oh-so-spiffy colored vinyl. Pretty!

Punk’s Not Dead

Holy Smokes, Batman. I can’t believe I didn’t know about this earlier.
Susan Dynner, director/producer and self-professed punk rock aficionado created the documentary “Punk’s Not Dead.” I am SUPER excited to check it out, although it still hasn’t been released in a theater near me yet. Bummer.
