Ontario punks The Rusty Trombones have released a new song for your listening pleasure. Walking Disaster, from their upcoming release Fights & Flights, is now streaming on their MySpace page – it’s at the bottom of the track list if you can’t see it. The new disc will be out this year, but the band hasn’t given out any information about format of Fights & Flights. It’ll definitely be worth checking out whenever it drops if it sounds anything like this preview.

The guys released Zombie Love, another song from Fights & Flights, in January. It’s also up on the MySpace page.

California hardcore band Of Mice and Men has announced that vocalist Austin Carlile has been replaced by Jerry Roush. The band has stated that Austin “has some issues that prevent him from being able to meet the demands of touring full time”. It’s rumored that Austin has a heart condition which has prevented him from touring, although the band did not make any reference to this. His full-time replacement, Jerry Roush (formerly of Sky Eats Airplane), had been filling in for Austin on the band’s most recent tour before the announcement was made.

The band is playing The Bamboozle as well as the Rise Records summer tour with label-mates The Bled. They’ll also be playing Warped Tour and have a Europen tour planned in September and October. Get the details at Dying Scene shows.

It has been waaaay too long since anybody’s heard new music from reggae-punk act Authority Zero but thankfully, that’s about to change.  On May 25th, 2010 the band will be releasing their first new full-length studio album since 2007’s 12:34.  The album is titled Stories Of Survival and it is the first release for Viking Funeral, an imprint label founded by Pennywise guitarist Fletcher Dragge, Ken Seaton of Hardline Entertainment and Suburban Noize Records.

This description of the album is given by the label:

The album begins with a sample of Winston Churchill’s “Blood, Sweat, Tears and Toil” speech as the opening chords to “The New Pollution” kick in and DeVore laments about the current state of corruption in the music industry. The band seamlessly shifts to reggae for the socio-political observations in “Big Bad World” as the album runs the gamut of musical styles from driving punk rock to ska and reggae.

Stories Of Survival is available for pre-0rder.  You can check out the track listing here.
