Win a Make Do and Mend vinyl prize pack

Late last year, Make Do and Mend released End Measured Mile to heavy critical acclaim--in fact, it was the second best album of 2010 according to the Punknews.org staff, not to mention #14 on our readers' best of 2010 list--so we thought it appropriate to celebrate by teaming up with Paper and Plastick to give away a prize pack featuring three vinyl variations of the album. Because the only thing better than having two copies of a great album is having three!

Win swag from Douglas Shields and the X-Factors

Gainesville, FL's Douglas Shields and the X-Factors have released a new self-titled 7-inch (which we're streaming here) and to celebrate, we're teaming up with the band to give away test presses, copies of the record and other good stuff to three lucky winners.

One grand prize winner will win a test press as well as one copy of each color of the vinyl, while a runner-up will win one copy of the release.

UPDATE: The contest should be fixed now. Apologies! Someone should buy me a calendar for Christmas.

Win tickets to to the Death to False Hope 2nd anniversary party

On January 21-22, 2011 (which is a lot sooner than most folks realize), dozens of bands will converge on the town of Durham, NC to help celebrate the second anniversary of Death To False Hope Records; bands like Less Than Jake, Off With Their Heads, Brendan Kelly, The Riot Before, The Sainte Catherines, and The Dopamines will join several others at Motorco Music Hall for 48 hours of debaucherous, beer-soaked fun.

We're teaming up with the label to give away two tickets to the event. A runner-up will receive a vinyl prize pack from http://www.loosecharm.com/ featuring wax copies of Red Collar's Pilgrim and Red City Radio's To the Sons & Daughters of Woody Guthrie.

Win swag from Mixtapes and Direct Hit!

Those of you who've been around for, say, a couple of hours know that Direct Hit! and Mixtapes have a new split 7-inch out on Kind of Like Records. Now, we're offering one lucky winner the chance to win a prize pack that includes a test pressing of the vinyl as well as a t-shirt from each band.

Win tickets to the Flatliners, Menzingers, Fake Problems and Mockingbird Wish Me Luck

If there is a single tour that can sum up the awesome new records we've seen in 2010, this might be it. Still high on the release of their incredibly well received new record, The Flatliners will hit the road in Quebec and Ontario this December and they're taking Fake Problems and The Menzingers along with them. The forces of Cavalcade, Real Ghosts Caught on Tape and Chamberlain Waits will combine into something truly epic. Not only are three of Punknews' best received acts touring together, but they're taking young Canuck upstarts Mockingbird Wish Me Luck under their wing and showing them the ropes.

This is a spectacular tour and we're thrilled to partner up with Dine Alone Records to give away some tickets to it.
