Yo, party people!  Lotsa shit going on right now in the punk world.  Bands are playing Harvest of Hope and SXSW, lotsa records coming out too.  Gettin’ stoked.

First off, we have a digital single from The Menzingers called “I Was Born”.  It’s the first song from their upcoming LP, “Chamberlain Waits”, which is out April 13th.  But until then, you should really check out the single; it has two acoustic b-sides for ya too.  If you want to check it out, go here:

The other record available online is “Savages” from Vultures United.  Everybody has been talking about these guys, but I try and not think about them too much because their music gives me the willies.  Unfortunately the CD and LP (which look beautiful, by the way) have been delayed until April, but the album is still available via digital retailers.  So yeah, get with the times and go check this scary shit out:

That’s about it for now.  Next week I’m leaving for the UK to sell t-shirts and shit for The Lawrence Arms, so I hope to see some of you and make some new friends.  I’m DYING to tell you all about how “We saved your ass in WWII!”  Even funnier…my parents are from Germany.  So anyways, if you wanna get some cheap CDs from the Red Scare webstore, you should do it this week!  Go here:

Hey folks, got a quick update regarding the Brendan Kelly / Joe McMahon split.  No, they’re not breaking up, they released an album together.  It’s called “Wasted Potential” and it’s out on March 16th.

Our homeys at Anchorless Records are doing the vinyl version and if you wanna hear a song from Joe McMahon’s side you better mosey over to their MySpace page:

We at Red Scare have been sentenced with the task of bringing you a song from Brendan Kelly.  It’s an acoustic version of the TLA hit, “Quincentuple Your Money” and you can hear it on our MySpace player now.

If you’re interested in ordering the CD, we have it available at our new webstore for a mere $8.  We may even throw in a Red Scare patch with your order too.  Check it out: http://bit.ly/aEpd9r

That’s it for now.  Who’s gettin’ all stoked for the World Cup?  We are.

Well, it sure took us long enough, huh?  Look man, getting 30+ bands together is NOT easy, but the good news is that this tribute came out great.  I’m really proud of it.

It’s called, “Untitled 21: A Juvenile Tribute To Swingin’ Utters” and it’s out now.  I’d like to thank the Utters and all the great bands that helped put this thing together.  It was hard, but it was well worth it as some of these songs are just fuckin’ awesome.  That said, we have lotsa cool links for you to check out: links to streams, reviews, where to buy, etc etc.  Here we go…

That’s about it for now, folks.  We’re busy working on new stuff from The Menzingers, Vultures United, and of course we have that Brendan & Joe split CD coming up in March.  Am I the only one around that just fuckin’ loves the Olympics?
