Hello everyone and welcome to Navel Gazing: your look back in the week in Punknews. I'm Bryne Yancey 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:
- It was yet another big week in the Against Me! camp, with a White Crosses reissue planned as well as footage surfacing from the band's controversial show in Rochester. WHAT MADNESS WILL NEXT WEEK BRING?
- Riot Fest rolled out its big announcements, with a Danzig legacy set (as well as Weezer, Social Distortion and the previously announced Descendents) announced for the Chicago festival, and Descendents, The Suicide Machines, X, Hot Water Music and others announced for Riot Fest East in Philadelphia.
- Less Than Jake released a new EP and gave away a song from it, "Goodbye, Mr. Personality"
- Rise Against unveiled a new video for "Make it Stop (September's Children)"
- The Internets received a first taste of The Horrible Crowes with a clip of "Black Betty & The Moon"
- Fucked Up morphed into a schoolhouse full of shouting children for their new video, "Queen of Hearts"
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 and we'll see you Monday morning.
