I am not Adam White, he's gone for a few weeks, so this week I'm filling in to be your guide through some of the most popular, notable, and otherwise attention getting stories of the past seven days. Each and every Punknews story is built from tips contributed by you fine folks, and here's what got the community talking this week… The People Must Have Something Good To Read On A Sunday This week's most popular stories This week was a mix of the old and the new. The most important news was obviously that the Mighty Mighty Bosstones are going to tour and record a new album. Don't call it a comeback! For some reason the news that Rock Band added Social Distortion, Replacements and Elvis Costello set you guys off - maybe you're Guitar Hero fans? Underoath stepped in it when they seemed to not know a thing about pioneering metal act Metallica. Agnostic Front is rolling out on tour, I'd make a clever quip but I value my kneecaps. The oddly controversial Alkaline Trio decided to leave Epic, start a label and plans to record in the summer. Phew. New reformed pop-punk dieties blink182 are working on a new album and recording after their upcoming tour. Another similarly huge band you may have heard of was in the news a bit this week. Green Day news is as follows: Green Day streams songs from new album, Streams of "21st Century Breakdown", MySpace is airing a May performance, they're touring with Kaiser Chiefs and Fuse plans a Green Day day. Fat Mike of NOFX was also in the news, talking about the music industry and recent price drops. Check out Part One and Part Two. You might have heard about a band called The Gaslight Anthem who was recently interviewed in Washington Post Express. And in totally unrelated news A Wilhelm Scream is recording new EP, album, AND posted a b-side. We also took a look at Your Favorite Records from April. Fantastic taste our readers have. I Can't Control My Fingers I Can't Control My Brain New feature content, weekly columns and exclusives Punknews.org is proud to continue publishing road journals from Mike Hale (Gunmoll, In The Red).
