InVogue Records has just announced the signing of San Francisco Bay Area melodic hardcore act Worthwhile for whom they’ll be re-releasing a remastered version of their last album “Carry On Kid” on July 16th.  We’ve been covering Worthwhile for over a year now and have posted numerous songs and music videos from the album but it looks like the label has pulled all of them off youtube and will be regurgitating them as “premieres” on sites like AlternativePress, which is where you have to go now to hear anything by this band.  Lame.  There’s a lesson here, kids.  If you wanna stay ahead of mainstream media and audiences in discovering great new up and comers in the punk scene, keep reading DS.  Toot! Toot! goes my own horn.

“Carry On Kid” was originally released in April, 2012.

Hamburg melodic hardcore act Light Your Anchor will be releasing a new full-length album titled “Hopesick” on June 14th via Let It Burn Records.  To give you a taste of what’s to come you can check out a music video for the album’s first single “Fall And Stand”.  It features Johnny OC from Liferuiner and you can check it out right here.

Light Your Anchor released their debut EP “Peter Pan Syndrome” in 2011.

I’m personally very excited about this story.  Melodic hardcore act Yankee Brutal are currently recording songs for a brand new EP which they hope to release early this summer.  More details to be released soon but for now I can tell you that I’ve heard a couple of the tracks and they definitely live up to the high standard set by the band’s previous release.

The EP will be a follow-up to the Yankee Brutal’s debut full-length “The Everlasting Greed” released last November through our very own Dying Scene Records (stream it here).

Here’s a new melodic hardcore/skate-punk act to check out.  Cleveland’s High Titles seem to be pretty new to the scene but you wouldn’t know it by the quality of the music they’re putting out.  The band released an EP titled “Surrenders” in January and more recently a new single for a track called “Cancer Plants”, which kicks ass.  Stream both and if you dig them download them both for free here.
