We’ve been lucky enough to be a part of a couple of pretty cool collabs lately, stemming mostly from our involvement with the awesome Canadian bands we know. The manner in which these collaborations of effort, finance and talent came about has been one of the most inspiring aspects of running…

What I Did In My Winter Vacation: A Slowyear/Burn Daylight Video
So I finally got around to cutting and editting the footage from the January weekender. It isn’t particularly professional as we only decided to film the weekend the day it began and I’m no film student by any stretch of the imagination. Ah well, that’s never stopped thousands of punks from trying new things. It was pretty fun. I didn’t get to include Adam and Jonos rap session or the Tigers Jaw train cover but they may emerge one day.
PFC, Johnny Foreigner and Kill Your Own all in one screenshot… I can deal with that.
Buy Issue 7 here. It’s rad.
Celebrated Swedish punk band, Millencolin invite fans to stream their upcoming May 28th release, The Melancholy Connection. This assemblage of b-sides is a follow up to 1999’s The Melancholy Collection and features two brand new songs and twelve rarities spanning from their break-out album, Pennybridge Pioneers, through today. The CD is paired with a ninety minute DVD that takes fans inside the making of Pennybridge Pioneers with never before seen archival footage, interviews with the band and live performances.Fans are invited to stream The Melancholy Connection in it’s entirely, courtesy of Punknews.org by going HERE.
The two new tracks, “Carry You” and the never heard before track, “Out From Nowhere,” hold up the classic Millencolin sound with energetic pop infused punk, combined with driving beats, anthemic choruses and irresistible melodies that will please diehard fans and new converts, alike.
“We’re really excited about the new stuff we recorded! We’re taking it back to our roots and mixing it with the new sound we’ve developed over the last years” says guitarist Erik Ohlsson.
With an impressive string of releases behind them, nearly two million records sold worldwide and having shared stages with the likes of Blink 182, the Foo Fighters and Queens of the Stone Age, the Örebro based quartet of vocalist/bassist Nikola Sarcevic, guitarists Erik Ohlsson and Mathias Färm and drummer Fredrik Larzon have put together an rousing collection of material that allows fans get an inside look at the past twenty years which have brought Millencolin to where they are today.
The first batch of PFC tees are going out today. We still got a few more to package so I thought we’d say that If anyone buys a tee of us in the next 12 hours or so we’ll throw in a copy of PFC#3 and some other cool stuff we have lying around.
Can’t get fairer than that. Go.
A friend of mine was clearing out his distro last week. Amongst boxes of zines and comics he found a handful of PFC#3. These have been out of print for over a year now so it was a surprise to see them again.
PFC#3 could be considered our awkward teenage years. It is starting to take shape but it’s still growing. This was the last issue before we made the jump to the american comic book format we use now. This was before we began to spend so much time working on the layouts. This is raw.
Interviews include Our Time Down Here, Kerouac, Defeater, Funeral For A Friend and more
CD includes OTDH, Kerouac, Vietwow!, Johnny Foreigner, Stagecoach and more.
