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:
- Bad Religion released a full stream of their upcoming record, True North. They also announced a tour supporting the new record with Against Me! and Polar Bear Club.
- Reel Big Fish released another cover of Van Morrison's hit, "Brown Eyed Girl".
- We sat down with Hot Water Music's Chris Wollard.
- The Sheds released a lyric video for their song, "Ignorance is Bliss", in response to the guitarist of For Today's homophobic comments.
- Victory Records welcomed hardcore outfit, Terror, to their roster.
- Anti-Flag began announcing new shows and released a benefit single to celebrate their 20th anniversary.
- Frank Turner revealed the details for his upcoming record, Tape Deck Heart.
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.
