Scream colored vinyl
Dischord Records just released another one of their classic albums on colored vinyl. Scream – Still Screaming LP on white vinyl This was the first Scream record and is now available on white vinyl. It also comes with a lyric sheet. I am pretty sure this record had been out of print on the vinyl [...]
Anarchy Music: Anti Nowhere League LP
With there being a vinyl resurgence of late, many labels have started going back and reissuing old material on the superior format, sometimes for the first time and sometimes for the first time on said format for many years. A new label subsidiary of Cleopatra Records called Anarchy Music was recently started and are offering [...]
Christian Death white vinyl
The ever so lovely and kind Lisa Fancher and Betty of Frontier Records sent me a surprise package in the mail with a tasty piece of vinyl inside. It would just so happen that one of my favorite releases on the label got a new colored vinyl facelift. Christian Death – Only Theatre of Pain [...]
A new episode of LFCM (two seasons later!)
It only took the passing of two seasons and the unfortunate ending of my relationship with the girl I was in love with since I was 15 (a story I may write about in the near future if anyone gives a shit about reading about me and not just the punk rock) to bring you, [...]
Sex Pistols – Spunk box set
As you may know, the Sex Pistols – Spunk album was finally given an official release on LP/CD last year. For those not familiar with it, about a week before Never Mind the Bollocks came out, some crafty bootlegger beat it to the punch by releasing an album of earlier Sex Pistols demo recordings. The [...]
The Melvins 9/27 at Double Door
Thursday night my friend Liza and I went to see The Melvins at the Double Door in Chicago. I realized that this would be the first time I have seen them play in about seven years. I then realized before that, it had been probably seven years between that and the time before it! I [...]
My First Time
My First Time – Book AK Press In everyone’s life, there is a first time for something and depending on what that something is, it could be a very memorable and life changing event. From your first cavity, first date, first time having sex to your first show, these are things that can stick with [...]
The Eat – CD
The Eat – It’s not The Eat it’s the Humidity – 2xCD Alternative Tentacles Records Unless you lived in South Florida and were privy to punk rock back between 1979-1985 you probably never heard of The Eat. They put out a pair of singles back then that only got about as far as their state [...]
Destroy Everything 9/1 at Memories
Last night I went to see Destroy Everything play with four other bands I’ve never heard of over at Memories in Chicago, IL. I was in need of a night of fun at a show and I was itching to take some photos so this show couldn’t have come at a better time for me. [...]
RKL blue vinyl
The old man (Doug Moody) sent over a copy of the limited blue vinyl edition of the RKL – Best of RKL album on Mystic Records. As mentioned in a post last week, this is a limited edition of 300 housed in the original sleeve. Judging by how vinyl collecting seems to be at an [...]
Hotlips Messiah 7/26/07 at Ronny’s
Thursday night I went to Ronny’s for two reasons; to see Hotlips Messiah and to celebrate Slick Horrible’s birthday by meeting up with friends and having a couple of serums. I needed a good night out and this sounded like just what the doctor ordered. Ronny’s is a pretty small bar with a back room [...]
CH3 picture disc
CH3 – One More for All My True Friends – Picture Disc 7″ Suburbia Records CH3 have been around a long time, about 25 years to be exact. Throughout the years they put out some really good records, and one or two that kind of missed the mark. After a long hiatus from recording, a [...]
Destroy Everything at Champs Rock Room
Sunday night I took a quick trip over to Champs Rock Room in Burbank, IL to see Destroy Everything. They only ended up playing five songs. I was experimenting some more with different settings on the camera using the flash on the second curtain sync with longer exposures trying to get better results with showing [...]
The Locust – New Erections
The Locust – New Erections CD Anti/Epitaph The Locust to me are one of the most interesting newer bands around these days. Instead of following the latest trend of hardcore and punk, they went out and forged their own sound which has since been copied by quite a few bands, none of which can do [...]
Christian Death silver edition
Hot on the heels of the last jumbo sized package that came in the mail came one more package from Frontier Records. This time it contained only one record, but what a record it is… This is the newly released “Silver Edition” of the Christian Death – Only Theatre of Pain LP. This has silver [...]
Lots of Frontier color vinyl
The other day I was once again surprised to find a very large package sitting on my doorstep. It was full of records and I do mean full! The package in question was sent over by Lisa and Betty of Frontier Records, one of my favorite labels ever, and contained the latest in colored vinyl [...]

Almost in time for Daylight Savings Time, we have just posted a new episode of LFCM. This classic punk podcast radio show can be had right here. This landmark episode features the origin of the “Vagina Out” mandate! What the hell does that mean? Tune in to the show and find out!
American Hardcore DVD
American Hardcore – DVD Sony Pictures Classics Last year’s documentary based on the book of the same name from a few years ago now finds itself available on DVD. I was actually surprised by how quickly this came to DVD seeing as it was just a few months ago when this movie had a limited [...]
Munster Night at Delilah’s
The good folks at Munster Records asked me to pass along the following information and since they are a good label and we have a mutual friend, I figured I’d give them a plug. You folks living in the Chicago area are the ones who may be interested in this. MUNSTER PUNK-ROCK NIGHT @ Delilah´s [...]
Mythmaker vinyl
I came home yesterday to find a box sitting on my front step. It was the familiar LP mailer box that I love seeing waiting for me when I get home. I picked it up and the return address said SPV Records. I wondered what could be inside so I quickly went in and got [...]
New LFCM site
Yesterday while staying inside avoiding the arctic cold I re-did the LFCM site. I personally think it is much better than the old site which I wasn’t really very happy with. Go over and check it out and please let me know what you think, and be sure to download the latest episode of the [...]
