Scene Point Blank is proud to debut the first full-length from Color TV, out next month on Deranged Records. The 10-song self-titled album follows several 7” singles.

On their debut, the Twin Cities-based band brings speedy punk defined by short bursts of melody and weary musings about the state of the world. The band shows an affinity for early UK punk, with carefully merged influence from US hardcore and more. Or, as Deranged puts it, “This is punk music clearly made by lifers obsessed with the underground counter-culture. Come, children, time to gather around and drink the electric Kool-Aid of C-TV!”

The band will be on tour this month, kicking things off in Minneapolis on Oct. 9 in Minneapolis.

Brendan Kelly and The Wandering Birds have announced a new album, out this month in digital formats. Titled Keep Walkin' Pal, the album releases digitally on Oct. 26 and will be available in physical formats on Nov. 23, courtesy of Red Scare Industries.

The new album consists of 10 songs and while Kelly is the namesake, it adopts a collective approach that includes contributions from filmmaker Nick Martin, Derek Grant (Alkaline Trio), and Dan Tinkler (Atlas Studios).  

The group will also be playing at The Fest later this month and select US dates this winter (detailed below). Kelly is also a founding member of The Lawrence Arms and The Falcon. The Wandering Birds previously released I'd Rather Die than Live Forever in 2012.

Birds In Row, fresh off the release of We Already Lost the World, is currently on tour with KEN Mode. The bands are playing dates together in the US and in Europe.

We Already Lost the World was released this past June.

Paper + Pastick will release a new flexi 7" by Greece's The Contenders on Oct. 26. One half of the 7" EP is streaming now at Dying Scene, the song "Double or Nothing."

Desrbed as a 7 piece ska/soul/rocksteady combo, the Athens band blends traditional ska and rocksteady influence with classic R&B such as Sam Cooke and Otis Redding.

Iceland's Kælan Mikla has unleashed a new track, "Nornalagið," via Revolver. The new song comes as a taste of their upcoming new album Nótt eftir nótt, set for release on Nov. 9 on Artoffact Records and is representative of their general sound, which culls from raw punk but with a defining dark, synthy dancefloor vibe.

Joy Division has surely left its imprint not only on a large array of bands but is omnipresent in whole musical genres. Interpol is a band where it would prove to be difficult to not see their dark indie-rock, which certainly helped to propel the turn-of-the-century post-punk revival to new heights.

Interpol have recently embarked on a world tour starting off in the US, dates in the new world, and culminating in their first show Down Under after more than seven years for a one-off special performance on Saturday, 05 January, 2019 under the concrete cast shells of Sydney’s iconic Opera House, which given the ambience of the venue and what Interpol’s new album Marauder promises, should not be missed.

Following the tradition of recent years, this Black Friday -- also known as the day after Thanksgiving or, more commonly, as November 23 -- will be Record Store Day.

Rhino Records has announced 12 new limited releases that will make their debut next month, including picture discs, special color prressings, and double LP sets. This year's special offerings include Ramones, Talking Heads, Devo, The B-52's, and more. Get the specifics after the jump.

The extravaganza that has firmly established itself as a highlight on the festival calendar in the Southern hemisphere, i.e. Electric Gardens has announced its descent onto Melbourne, Perth, Sydney and Adelaide from 18 – 27 January, 2019.  

Spearheading the 2019 incarnation will be the duo Rick Smith and Karl Hyde that comprise the seminal outfit Underworld, which not only because of their presence on the Trainspotting soundtrack and the opening of the 2012 London Olympics but because of their solid repertoire prove to be a more than adequate successor to Fatboy Slim, who headlined 2018’s Electric Gardens.

Underworld will be joined by Erick Morillo and the headlining troika will be completed by UK’s house and techno export Eats Everything. 

As in previous years, there will be an array of opening acts gracing the production that T1000 events has become loved for - momentous sound, light and vision to the luscious green venues that Electric Gardens usually inhabits. 

The Casualties have released their new track, "Feed Off Fear." The track comes from their new album, Written in Blood -- available October 26th via Cleopatra Records. You can catch The Casualties on The Metal Alliance Tour with Goatwhore, Black Tusk, Great American Ghost, Morthereon and Gozu. Check out the track and dates after the jump.
