JUST ANNOUNCED! Flint Eastwood will release her new EP with a momentous event in the lobby of the world famous Fisher Building on April 14. Obviously, this show is special for a variety of reasons, but mainly because I (Nate) have been working closely with Jax since the beginning of Flint Eastwood. I was the band's manager for 3+ years, and we've had some incredible moments together. And in all the world, I have yet to find someone with Jax's vision, drive, and passion to put on a special show every time she hits the stage. This will be a truly special night, and we can't wait to share it with all of the friends that have rallied around Jax and this project over the years. Check the comments for a few more reasons why you might want to attend this show. Tickets go on-sale Friday at 10am at FusionShows.com, and the amazing support lineup will be announced in the coming days! RSVP: Flint Eastwood • Fisher Building, Detroit, MI
Much like the city that shapes her work, Detroit-based Jax Anderson, aka Flint Eastwood, wakes up everyday confronting a world that tells us that we are not good enough, not unique enough, not rich, beautiful, or smart enough; not the right color, not the right gender. Success is as subjective as it is elusive, but if the debut single “Queen” from Anderson’s forthcoming EP reveals anything about the songstress, it’s that she’s everything she needs to be.

Voices get hoarse. Muscles shrivel. Anger subsides. Memories fade. When a punk ages, it’s not always graceful. Greg Barnett, the frontman of the Menzingers, knows that all too well — “We put miles on these old jean jackets,” he sings — and is looking to find a dignified way through middle age.
After the Party is the fifth full-length album by his band, the Menzingers, a shaggy punk band from Scranton, Pa., that for more than a decade has been snotty but not wistful, driven and not much for the rearview mirror. It has honed an extremely reliable and almost romantic take on blue-collar rock, largely avoiding the lyrical in favor of throbbing, pulsing id. - Jon Caramanica for The New York Times

Give Twin Peaks an inch and they’ll take a stretch of the road. Having careened across America and beyond, sharing their staggering energy, the band made their third album the best way they know how: by themselves. The same group that pro-duced the scuzzy squalor of their debut “Sunken,” had legions of fans screaming along to their anthemic sophomore effort, Wild Onion, now swings and serenades with Down In Heaven(out now on Grand Jury).
Check out Down In Heaven below:
“We decided to call it On Letting Go because that’s what the record’s all about,” Green told Equal Vision. “Detaching yourself from your ego, detaching yourself from your things, the identity you give yourself, everything. That’s what this album is. All of the stuff I wouldn’t want anybody to know about myself, all the stuff I’d be embarrassed about putting out there, I’m going to put out there as a note to myself. So I don’t forget that nothing matters but love.” “On Letting Go is a summary of what life’s all about for us right now,” says Ekstrom. “The past couple of years, we’ve been trying to let go of our own demons and addictions. Everybody’s just trying to be OK. If anything’s going to change the world, it’s going to start from inside, from people changing themselves first. I remember the bands that did that for me when I was young and if we can be that to anybody, I think that’s a very profound and beautiful thing.”

Acclaimed Californian band Joyce Manor – Barry Johnson (vocals and guitar), Chase Knobbe (guitar), Jeff Enzor (drums), and Matt Ebert (bass) – have released their anticipated new album Cody, via Epitaph. It is the follow-up to the band’s 2014’s critically-lauded record Never Hungover Again.
