As you can see we’re toiling away on the world’s greatest website, but we wanted to bring you up to speed on recent events.  2024 was a banger, eh?  Insert fire emoji, etc etc.  We began with a 7” EP from Broadway Calls.  They even got some cool tour PR too, which is much deserved.  (Cheers, Ida!)  Then we did a 7” with Chicago legends, Sludgeworth.  Two new rad tunes, and those headbangers at Lambgoat premiered a video for “Together Not Together”.  First Red Scare artist covered by a metal site!  Insert pentagram emoji, etc etc.

Then came Summertime and a buncha fun punk shows.  Ya see, in 2024, Red Scare turned 20 years old.  Hold your applause.  In honor of this regrettable milestone, we rolled out a collection (20 Years of Dreaming And Scheming) with 17 unreleased songs.  Bullshittin’ aside, it’s actually a great comp and anyone with any decent taste loved it.  Perhaps you’ve heard of DIY fanzine, Rolling Stone?  They premiered a song/video from Laura Jane Grace.  Kerrang! premiered a new one from The Menzingers, Stereogum did a write-up, BrooklynVegan dropped a new vid from Cobra Skulls where Devin is prancing around in an abandoned diner… you get the idea: it was a banner year for THE GOOD GUYS.  (FYI, we are the good guys.)  We also did some bday showcases in Vegas, Chicago, New Orleans, Seattle, and more.  Much love to anyone who came to the party.

We finished strong with one more release Red Lanterns – The Third EP from Arms Aloft.  Seth even built a video for it!  We’ll have a physical 7” up for this thing soon, so look for that in 2025.  What else?  A cool release for Record Store Day, new music from Elway and Sam Russo and The Methadones and… well, come back and see.  There will be a new site and new music!  (Eggplant emoji, etc etc.)
