If you haven’t heard by now, apparently the boys have called it a day and are going on an ‘indefinite hiatus’. Their label issued a statement a few days ago to the media… “For over a decade, Blink-182 has toured and done nonstop promotion all while trying to balance relationships with family and friends.” And […]
I’ve been listening to a lot of hip hop lately. I’ve always dabbled, but never really been consistent in listening to hip hop. But for the past few months, I’ve had one or two albums in constant rotation. Right now, I have four or five. Growing up, I was never huge into it. Mostly because […]
First off – fuck yeah! It’s been a while since I’ve had my ass kicked, and Comeback Kid did just that with their new album, Wake The Dead. Recorded at The Blasting Room with Mr. Bill Stevenson (of Only Crime, Descendents/All, Black Flag fame), this album is super hard-hitting and just plain awesome through-and-through! It […]
The first time I listened to this album, I swear I was transported back to 1995. Looking back on so many great memories; my first big show – Rancid with AFI at the Warehouse, endless days of skateboarding and rocking my first band. So rad! I will admit, I haven’t been super into Lagwagon since […]
Well, it’s finally happened. Canada has it’s own iTunes store. Having read Downhill Battle’s take on iTunes, I wasn’t too stoked to jump on board and start handing my money over to the dinosaurs. But I was in a situation where I could either… A. Never find the album I’ve been looking for since October […]

The breaking point came when I was trying to watch Goldfinger on the main stage, but couldn’t hear them over the Union stage which was positioned facing […]
No, I’m not urinating on the internet… Last night was Systolic’s second show. It was much better than the first! The sound was rad, we played tight and a shit ton of our friends came out to support us. Oh, and most importantly, the tuning was down to a minimum. At the first show we […]
The sure as hell isn’t anything worth listening to on the radio, but check this out… There’s a new band that’s about to tear your face off and hand it to you. Only Crime is comprised of some of today’s punk rock legends. Russ Rankin from Good Riddance spouting his genius lyrics while Bill Stevenson […]
As you may or may not know. I’m playing drums for a band called Systolic. To make a long story short, I helped form the band back in September of 2002 along with ex-Lucky Number Seven bassist, Brent Seeley. I left the band in May of 2003 and Brent followed suit shortly after. This past […]
