When they finish up recording the rock they will play some shows as they make their way back home to Jersey, sharing the stage with some big names like MXPX, The Bouncing Souls, The Casualties, Tim Barry and others. Look for them this summer on some Warped Tour dates in the South too. Finally, if you still haven't checked out their recently released EP, Señor and the Queen, do it. And don't just take our word for it. Read a review! Or how bout this one! Tim Barry just posted two new tracks on his myspace page. He's also added some tour dates and there are whispers about a fall tour with some other song singin', guitar strummin' dudes... Teenage Bottlerocket have returned home from a triumphant tour in support of their new record, Warning Device. If you missed 'em that's a bummer, but read about the Orlando and Denver shows. They have two split 7"s coming out too! The first is with The Ergs! and is part of Suburban Home's "Under The Influence" split 7" series. The other will be an Adeline release with a bunch of Oregonians in a band named Broadway Calls. Against Me! recently recorded a PSA for Rock The Vote that addresses social justice issues in the political spotlight for the 2008 elections.

Reports from the Road: Fake Problems Our guys travel to Germany today for a couple weeks of tour, and we wish them safer travels than they experienced on their recent Smoke or Fire tour. Chris Farren explains: Thanksgiving Comes Early For Fake Problems! So this is the craziest thing that has ever happened to us: We were driving through Tennessee en route to Ohio when a full grown turkey (generally a flightless bird, right?) decided to challenge the strength of our windshield. I was laying down in the back bench of the van, when I hear Derek and Sean (driver and shotgun) yelp a series of "woah...WOAH...WOAAAH"'s. This was followed by one of the loudest noises I've ever heard, shattered glass everywhere, and a turkey clawing at me for it's life. I really have no idea how the bird made it all the way to the back of a 15 passenger van, or why it targeted us, but oh it did. We were stuck in Columbia, TN for two days and missed two shows. To top it off, there's blood and glass spanning the entirety of the interior. We're honestly still in shock from this, and very grateful to be alive. So I guess in the end, Fake Problems Vs. 30 lb Turkey ends with us on top. The turkey may have shattered our windshield, bled all over my sleeping bag, and scared the holy crap out of us, but we killed that bird. Sean cut the beard off and we're going to have the sweetest dream catcher ever. Oh, and we get to hear a bunch of really funny "Turkey Problems" jokes! Check out the photos of the massacre here. Sundowner Chris has already logged many train hours on his European tour with Mike Park. At every stop in every city they have been met with appreciation, generosity and free pints from their friends and fans. Mike is keeping an extensive tour blog—further improved by tourmate Hiro's avid photography hobby/habbit. After leaving the UK, they have dates in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, and Germany still to come. Gaslight Anthem signs to SideOneDummy The Gaslight Anthem has announced that their 2nd full-length effort will be released on SideOneDummy. Read a show review, and then check 'em out live. Teenage Bottlerocket Are featured in Spin magazine this month, and they have added more dates to their upcoming tour! Check out their latest blog for more info. Horsebites & Heather Gabel Have an art show coming up! It is called 2nd Coming and the theme is the Four Horsemen! See all the details here. Heather Gabel Be sure to order your limited edition "Ribs & Roses" t-shirt from Hot Topic and brought to you by Punk Rock Confidential. February 26th, 2008 A couple of nights ago, after some laborious and intellectually intensive brainstorming with some other brilliant scientists, we developed this hypothesis: you can't get drunk if you're just drinking beer. Of course, it takes real commitment and concentration to conduct the very controlled and meticulous experimentation necessary to test such a hypothesis, so we've been very busy...Basically, too busy to write this long overdue update. All in the name of science, man... The Gaslight Anthem The highly anticipated Gaslight Anthem EP Señor and the Queen is finally out to rave reviews like this one! They are currently wrapping up a pretty sold out tour with The Loved Ones, and in March they will be heading to SXSW, playing a handful of shows along the way. They've also just announced a few new East Coast dates with The Bouncing Souls and Tim Barry. Fake Problems Besides being totally rad: they are totally busy. Their 7" Viking Wizard Eyes Wizard Full of Lies is out on Good Friends Records, and they are touring like mad until May. They are currently doing an East Coast run with Smoke or Fire, in March they will be in Germany, and in April they have a huge tour with Anti-Flag Teenage Bottlerocket TBR will kick off an extensive tour at SXSW this year! The first half with Dead To Me, the second with the Copyrights. They sound so great live, and goddamnit, they look real cool. Watch their video for "In The Basement" and definitely don't miss their show! Dead To Me DTM will be playing shows at SXSW, including the Shirts For a Cure show, and drummer/humanitarian Ian has donated a killer t-shirt design. After the TBR tour they are doing some special West Coast dates with The Bouncing Souls. And then...they head into the studio! Fuck yeah! Oh, and they're going to Europe to tour with this little band called Millencolin. Stoked! Sundowner Chris sang songs/drank Fernet here in San Francisco last night at The Bottom of the Hill before heading off to Europe for almost a month of tour with Mike Park. If you get the chance to see him play ask to hear his version of The Partisan. It's really good. February 2nd, 2008 Gaslight Anthem's EP Señor and the Queen has been pushed back to February 12th release Silver lining: preorder started today. In other news, Fake Problems' 7" Viking Wizard Eyes Wizard Full of Lies is slated for a February 12th release as well, out on Good Friends Records. Heather Gabel made the totally killer cover art. Check it out, man. And check her out, too! Heather will have two pieces in an upcoming art show in L.A. at Crewest Gallery called "Fatally Yours". Details on her MySpace page. Tours: Against Me! is out with The Foo Fighters. Fancy! Smoke or Fire and Fake Problems hook up on Valentine's Day for a few weeks of shows on the East Coast. Gaslight Anthem is main support on The Loved Ones tour beginning February 7th in Washington DC. Sundowner will kick off a pretty huge European tour with Mike Park in February. We wanna thank Richard of Horsebites Design for making us the beautiful tiger/pirate art for our Mutiny bowling shirts, and Sam for printing them... on purple. We love you dudes. Thank god the holidays are over January 4th, 2008 Let's celebrate with Smoke or Fire and some free downloads: Smoke or Fire will be performing "The Patty Hearst Syndrome" on Fearless Music, January 5th (Saturday) at 12:30am on Fox 5 in NYC. Check out new songs from The Loved Ones, The Gaslight Anthem and Teenage Bottlerocket courtesy of Fuse TV: www.fuse.tv/dozendays. The Loved Ones' new record Build & Burn is out on Fat Wreck Chords February 5th, and the song is called "Pretty Good Year." The Gaslight Anthem will release their new EP, Señor & the Queen, even sooner: January 28th on Sabot. Hear the first song and get an answer to the age old question, "Wherefore Art Thou, Elvis?" The generous dudes in Teenage Bottlerocket are giving away a second song, "On My Own," from Warning Device out this Tuesday on Red Scare. And no, it's not a cover of Eponine's heartwarming solo from Les Miserables... Although that would have been pretty sweeeeet. You can tell 'em in person if you want at Reggie's in Chicago on January 25th. It's their official record release show, and they're playing with labelmates, The Copyrights. Mutiny News Update December 8th, 2007 January Release We are very proud to announce a new addition to the Mutiny family (and we get twins, no less): pop punk darlings Teenage Bottlerocket! Growing up, identical twins Ray & Brandon Carlisle were instrumental in helping to build a vibrant punk scene in Laramie, Wyoming, and they have played in many local bands from a young age. They joined forces with song-writing mastermind & top-notch crooner Kody Templemen, of the Lillington's, and released the highly acclaimed debut full length Total on Red Scare. They recently finished recording their sophomore album with Bill Stevenson (Descendents) at the Blasting Room. The record is titled Warning Device and is slated for a January 8th release on Red Scare. Check out their first single "In The Basement" now playing on our myspace page & theirs. Ray, Brandon, Kody & Miguel have plans for a full U.S. tour to begin at SXSW this March. TBR's live set invokes a style and intensity reminiscent of the Ramones-era 70's punk shows, so be sure to check back for tour dates near your town! February Tour Smoke or Fire will be taking Fake Problems on a little jaunt along the East Coast. We've only got three dates confirmed as of yet, but you can check 'em out here as they trickle in. Smoke or Fire still haven't picked a new bass player, but an announcement will be made very soon! Expect to see lots more bro-downs like the one captured here: And for a little light reading... Chris #2 from Anti-Flag on the Benefit For Victims of Violent Crime EP Heather Hannoura in Reax Magazine Richard Minino of Horsebites Design on Current TV I Went For A Walk Interview on Issue Oriented November 27th, 2007 More greatness from Greg & Shanti in support of I Went For A Walk. Listen to the Podcast they did for Issue Oriented here. On Tour! November 23rd, 2007 DEAD TO ME The Dead To Me family is home for a few weeks after finishing their US tour with The Draft & The Gaslight Anthem. They will hook up with another bunch of rad dudes from a little band called Anti-Flag to do 3 California dates, followed by a benefit show on December 11th in Hollywood with The Bouncing Souls and Flogging Molly. Read their blog for details. ANTI-FLAG After parting ways with Dead To Me, Anti-Flag will embark on a huge Canadian tour with Alexisonfire, Saosin, and The Bled to support their benefit EP A Benefit For Victims of Violent Crime. As a homecoming present, they will do 3 kinda local shows with BTMI & The Code. SUNDOWNER The accidentally oh-so-talented and charming Chris McCaughan, singer/songwriter of acoustic project Sundowner, has just announced more fall U.S. dates. He will be joining Chuck Ragan of Hot Water Music fame for a short tour of the Southeast, heading north from Tampa to Philly. Since early October Chris has been performing in 3 different bands a night (The Lawrence Arms, The Falcon & Sundowner) in a full U.S. tour/traveling circus. By now he should be in tip-top musical shape, especially after a week off to sleep away the cumulative five-week hangover. Don't miss the chance to hear these beautifully crafted songs deftly performed in an intimate setting. You can see all his dates at the Sundowner MySpace page. THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM In anticipation of their new EP Señor & the Queen due out January 29th on Sabot, The Gaslight Anthem will bundle up and head north in the beginning of December for a handful of dates in New England with the Forever Endeavor. During their set at Fest in Florida we got moshed by hundreds of impassioned TGA fans, and I think it's safe to say that there won't be too many more opportunities to see these guys rockin' at a place like Lia's Pizza... I Went For A Walk Greg & Shanti have been busy reading and singing their way across the U.S., and while they were here in San Francisco they were featured in The San Francisco Chronicle. Read the article here. Also, be sure to visit their MySpace page, as they recount their trip on their blog. CMJ & Fest VI: Killer tunes and killer times November 17th, 2007 We're finally beginning to recover from a pretty epic month of traveling that started at CMJ in NYC and ended in a gutter somewhere in Gainesville, FL in the wee hours of post-Fest Monday morning. We were honing our skills in "The Art of Partying" (to quote the wise words of Municipal Waste), and we were lucky enough to get schooled by some real masters of the craft in the process... Mutiny/Punknews CMJ Showcase 2007 New York City On October 18th we had our first ever CMJ showcase in the Tap Room at the Knitting Factory. We were a little nervous about some of the logistics of the night (7 bands, shared equipment, a 12am curfew, and a Beyonce-style tour bus in Manhattan). However, we arrived at the venue to find everybody already loaded in, eating sandwiches and shooting the shit on the sidewalk in front of the club. It was a truly wonderful night for us, and we want to express our deepest gratitude to Fake Problems, Sundowner, American Steel, The Falcon, Smoke or Fire, Tim Barry and The Loved Ones for coming and rocking and hanging out. Everybody played phenomenal sets to a passionate & unruly group of kids, and they are just all around good people... Aw shucks, sorry to be so maudlin; let's move on... Music Minded Art Show at Fest VI Music Minded Art Show at Fest VI The Thursday night before Fest officially jumped into high gear, Mutiny PR helped out No Idea Records and an extraordinarily talented group of artists to throw an art show called "Music Minded." The kind folks at The Atlantic in Gainesville were very gracious hosts, and they also have $1 PBRs during Happy Hour; I felt like I had found the Holy Grail. Anyhow, the show featured the works of Bridey Bowen, Heather Hannoura, Sean Mahan, Richard Minino of Horsebites Design, Chrissy Piper, Christy Road & Ed Trask. There was a great turnout, and many red dots. New Website Launch October 14th, 2007 Welcome to the brand new Mutiny website! Our friend Bryan Quilty made it (we're pretty sure he's magic), and we're super stoked. Normally, I would take this opportunity to yammer on about Mutiny's current projects and future plans, but our first ever CMJ showcase is next week, we leave tomorrow for NYC, and I still haven't packed. However, please check out what all our bands & artists are up to and come back and visit the site often as we will be frequently and regularly posting news & new tour/show info. UPCOMING EVENTS: In order to endure the elbow rubbing and stuffy industry gesticulations of CMJ this month, we are throwing a party with our buddies at PunkNews.org. The past year has proven to be very exciting, with many new additions to the Mutiny family and an abundance of nascent projects in the works. In an attempt to celebrate the achievements of our friends, we at MPR and PunkNews will host our 1st Annual CMJ showcase in the cozy Tap Room of The Knitting Factory in Manhattan on Thursday, October 18th. The lineup will be The Loved Ones, Tim Barry, Smoke or Fire, The Falcon, American Steel, Sundowner and Fake Problems. We are very proud to be associated with all of these amazing talents. Tickets sold out in less than a week, but if you managed to snag one, meet us at the bar and we'll buy you an Oly. If you aren't going, check back in a couple weeks for pictures & stories! The Fest VI is looming on the horizon, and if you are lucky enough to be going, it is sure to be a weekend that you'll never forget (at least the parts that you are lucky enough to remember). Before you really start going for it, come out to the official Fest VI art show. Titled "Music Minded", the show will be held at The Atlantic in Gainesville on Thursday, October 25th from 7 to 9:30. Featured artists will be Bridey Bowen, Heather Hannoura, Horsebites Design, Sean Mahan, Shane McCauley, Sten Monstem, Chrissy Piper, Cristy Road, Steak Mtn, and Ed Trask. These artists have been making your favorite bands look hip for years: Hot Water Music, Avail, Alkaline Trio, New Mexican Disaster Squad, Rancid, Against Me!, Tragedy, Green Day, The Riverboat Gamblers & more! OUT NOW: I Went For A Walk by Shanti Wintergate & Greg Attonito Kindred spirits Greg Attonito & Shanti Wintergate's children's book I Went For A Walk is out now! Singer, songwriter, actress Shanti wrote the prose of this imaginative and lovely story, and Greg drew all the pictures while on tour with his band, The Bouncing Souls. Visit their MySpace to purchase your copy & to check out their TOUR details so you can catch them stoking out the kids with their cross-country musical book readings. COMING SOON: The Gaslight Anthem EP: Señor & the Queen, January 8th, 2008 Jersey boys, The Gaslight Anthem have a new EP out January 8th on Sabot called Señor & the Queen. In the meantime check out their new video I'da Called You Woody, Joe and look for them on tour in a town near you with Dead To Me and The Draft. ON TOUR: -Sundowner is currently on tour with his other band, The Lawrence Arms—and he has dates with another busker, Chuck Ragan, on the horizon. -Smoke or Fire are out with their fellow RVA porch-sitters AVAIL at the end of the month. -Against Me! will be on an East Coast run with Sage Francis, W.I.F.S. & The Cobra Skulls beginning November 5th. -Anti-Flag is touring Canada with Alexisonfire, Saosin and The Bled in December.
