Sunday Edition: March 18, 2012

Hello everyone and welcome to Navel Gazing: your look back in the week in Punknews. I'm Brittany Strummer
and I'll be your guide through some of the juiciest, most popular and otherwise noteworthy stories from the last seven days. Remember, every Punknews story is built from tips from our wonderful, good-looking readers, so get to submitting. Here's what got the strange, slow and old community talking this week:

• The Bouncing Souls released a new song from their highly anticipated Rise Records debut.
• Boston police have started to crack down on moshing.
• Iraqi youth are being subjected to violence for being "emo" and/or part of the LGBT community.
• We sat down with Say Anything frontman, Max Bemis and Russ Rankin of Good Riddance / Only Crime.
• The Lawrence Arms finally set a release date for their long awaited DVD.
• Joe Escalante of The Vandals discussed his run for LA county judge.
• Hot Water Music released the art for their upcoming album, Exister.

With that, we hand over this Sunday evening to the Punknews community, where anything is possible, from the next amusing-then-overwrought meme, to the creation of bands and message boards, to alienating sports chatter. So talk amongst yourselves, spin some tracks in the Navel Gazing turntable.fm room and we'll see you Monday morning.
