In this special edition of the new and improved Dying Scene Radio, the boys get drunk and talk about their favorite albums of 2017. What else do you need to know? Grab a cerveza and get to streaming, below and then weigh in on who’s list you think is better over on our social media pages (ed note: psssttt…..It’s AP’s)!
I’m not going to bore you with a bunch of pleasantries because I don’t have time for it, so we’re gonna just hop right into this. If you wanna know what I’m busy with, check out the Featured Stream section to the right hand section of this page, over there >>> yea, that’s me. Or you could listen to Dying Scene Radio, (The Official Podcast of DyingScene.com) to hear my silky smooth, baritone voice. Or you could go check out out my Instagram page which features pictures from the 125+ sets I shot this year. Damn….I need a break. In between all of that, I also managed to listen to some pretty fantastic albums! Peep my top ten favorites from the year that was, below!
Jamie here, as a relatively new writer on Dying Scene I feel a certain level of responsibility and excitement with giving my first top 10 albums article. Most of you know me as Goldfinger, and if you’ve had the opportunity to catch any of my articles you’ll notice I’ve got an unhealthy love for my home-grown punk rock. Fortunately 2017 was a banger year for Canadianity as we were spoiled with several home-grown Canuck classics. Anyway, enough with the filler. Check below to find out if we can be friends or not.
2017 was an awfully busy year for me! I shot four festivals and an uncountable amount of local shows here in The City of Angeles. But for as frantic as it was there was also some pretty big payoffs. My year was filled with multiple life goals like getting to shoot Rancid, Bad Religion and Propagandhi all for the first time. And through it all, I got to meet tons of great folks, all of which deserve thanks in one way or another but would take too much time to acknowledge here. So, I’ll instead just say thanks to the incredible bands that allowed me to take their pictures while most likely being uncomfortably close to them! Keep up all of the great work and I can’t wait to see you all again in 2018! Check out my personal favorite shots from almost every set I shot this year, below!

Remember when we had a semi-regular podcast that featured new music from emerging acts, news and stories from around the Scene and band/artist interviews? Yea…those were simpler times… But fret not, faithful readers/listeners, we jumped on the reboot bandwagon and returned with a new and improved version of Dying Scene Radio! That’s right gang, we’ve done a complete overhaul! With two, all new hosts, a slick, new streamlined format for more cohesion, and far, far less vitriolic politics, we know you’re going to dig DSR 2.0! For our debut episode, we sent one of our new hosts, AnarchoPunk to Studio City to meet up with Kevin Besignano and Derik Envy from Los Angeles’ premiere punk rock act True Rivals. Not only did he get the skinny on their new EP, but AP also recorded an incredible acoustic set with ’em! So, without further adieu we present you with the new Dying Scene Radio!

Canadian punk legends Propagandhi have released a video for their new song “Failed Imagineer”. Check it out below.
The track is taken from their upcoming album “Victory Lap” which will be released on September 29th via Epitaph Records.
The band will be hitting the road later this year in support of “Victory Lap” with some excellent bands supporting them. You can check the dates out here.
Hot on the heels of their absolutely ripping single from the band’s forthcoming 7th LP, perennial Canadian raconteurs and riot-starters Propagndhi have announced their tour plans for the fall!
Providing east coast (best coast/fuck you) support will be Iron Chic, Spain’s Gas Drummers and Heartsounds. On west coast lead-off will be RVIVR and Bad Cop/Bad Cop. No matter your coast, the show will be a blast. Check out the tour dates and venues below.
Victory Lap drops on September 29th, through Epitaph Records. As an added bonus, the album will be the first to feature the new guitarist and one time fan in the crowd, Sulynn Hago. That’s worth the admission price right there…how many of us dream of being picked up as an axe for our favorite band?
Holy shit, this Monday just got so much better! Canadian punk legends Propagandhi have officially announced the details of their first new album in nearly five years.
“Victory Lap” will be released September 29th through Epitaph Records and to get you truly fired the F up you can stream the album’s title track below. I’m on my 3rd consecutive listen and can officially say that if the rest of the album is half as good as this track then the wait will have been worth it.
“Victory Lap” will be the band’s first new release since 2012’s “Failed States” which was also put out on Epitaph. Pre-order the new album on vinyl here.
“Victory Lap” also marks Propagandhi’s first album with new guitarist Sulynn Hago, who joins Samolesky, frontman Chris Hannah, and bassist Todd Kowalski. Replacing longtime guitarist David Guillas (who appears on several tracks on Victory Lap), Hago was added to the lineup after Propagandhi put out a call for audition tapes and received over 400 responses.
Hailing from Lincoln, UK Nieviem is a newer skate punk band that has been tearing it up for a little over a year. Steadily releasing new songs, live recordings, and EPs, the band continues the trend with their second EP The Hope Is There. The EP is fast and heavy, borrowing from hardcore but still strongly entrenched in 90's skate punk. If that sounds up your alley, then give it a listen here.
