Sounds like the new album is coming out late August, if the hometown album release show they mentioned awhile back is coinciding with it. Love me some new MxPx.
Swear one of those Warped Tour CDs was an entry way into the genre for me. Some bands I haven't heard of, have to check them.
I still have lots of Punk o ramas, FAT compilations, Punkzilla and Warped comps that introduced me to so many bands. The “Dragging the Lake” comps were also amazing.
Any word on when the Warped Tour comp will be available online? The "after the weekend" from Smartpunk's June 13 post is rather vague.
Yesterday was 28 years since Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo was released I love that we're still getting great music from this band. Really hoping for a tour announcement, this might have to be the first show I take one/both of my kids to
And not just getting new great music, they haven't had member changes since Andy. Very few bands have ever had that stability.
The livestream shows are such a comfort watch for me…these three guys together are just familiar and special. So glad they pushed through the early 2010s when Tom and Yuri were prioritizing their jobs and it was the MxPx All Stars, or whatever Mike was doing to keep things going.
Yeah, this band is really something special in so many ways. I was beyond stoked to take my 6 year old daughter to see them last year. She had such a blast and I'm hoping they're responsible for her starting a band asap. I teared up on more than one occasion during the set seeing her sing along while picturing myself in my bedroom listening to those same songs when my teen angst was on overdrive.
