PUBLIC ENEMIES


It's out today. Who's seen it, who's going?

What did you think?

PARASITIC SKIES AND UNRESTRAINED HIT THE ROAD


They'll be making a stop next Thursday at New Song Underground with Signs of Hope, Collapse and Reflect. Make sure you check it out.

Also, it's the GCA Anniversary show. The BBQ thing didn't work out as planned, but we will have some kind of snack—it's a celebration after all.

Shows at New Song have to be over by 9 PM, so that means that Collapse will be starting promptly at 6, so get down early and have a good time.

PAINT IT BLACK PREP ANOTHER 7"


Paint it Black just released a 7" via Bridge Nine Records, but they're not done yet. The band is obviously enjoying not being attached to any one label and another new release, Surrender, is scheduled for August 18, this time through Fat Wreck Chords.

The track listing is:
1. Sacred
2. Worms
3. Cipher
4. Surrender

BANE/GRADE SPLIT 7" IN THE WORKS

Grade is working on new material and posted this update recently -- "On July 6th we're starting to record a couple of new songs for the At Both Ends Magazine final issue double 7" comp with our old friends from Bane. Shawn, Greg, Kyle and I have been jamming with our good friend Matt Richmond (from the Video Dead and Saint Alvia) for a little while now. What started out as getting together to jam for fun has produced some pretty awesome new songs and we can't wait to get in the studio and see what we can do with them. No plans for reunion tours or albums or any of that stuff right now, we're just having a good time playing together again and we'll see where it goes from here."

Grade released And Such Is Progress, Under the Radar and Headfirst Straight To Hell before splitting up in 2002. They reunited in 2006 for a show.

UPDATE: According to Justin Sitner, vocalist for Unrestrained: "This is going to be a double 7" that also features Unrestrained and Between Earth & Sky."

We'll get more details from him and have them soon.

UTAH'S PRIVATE CLUB LAWS ARE OFFICIALLY GONE


Even if you're not a big drinker or regular bar patron, this a good move all around—especially if you just want to catch a band.
