Teenage Bottlerocket will be releasing their 3rd full-length release,  “They Came From The Shadows”, September 15th on Fat Wreck Chords.  Below is the official statement from Fat regarding the release:

The most rocking thing to come out of Wyoming since, well… ever, TEENAGE BOTTLEROCKET have taken pleasure in showing everyone just how potent and exhilarating that fresh, gimmick-free punk rock can be. The release of their third full-length, They Came From the Shadows, marks their first Fat Wreck Chords release, and easily their most anticipated offering to date. They Came From the Shadows is comprised of 14 straight forward punk rock gems, laced with the unforgettable melodies that have become the calling card of TBR.

Progressive ska-punkers, The Johnstones have added a new track from their upcoming album “Can’t Be Trusted” to their myspace page.  The track is titled “Take Me To The Party” and the album appears to be due out in October.  If you haven’t heard of these guys yet it’s worth giving their song a quick listen.

The Johnstones released their last album “Word Is Bond” on Stomp Records in 2006.

Tony Sly, lead singer of legendary punk band No Use For A Name, has been playing around with some solo stuff for a while but it seems he’s finally written enough material for a full album.  According to a post on his myspace blog he’ll be heading to Motor Studios this September to begin recording, shooting for a January release.

For old school NUFAN fans, you may find this news even more exciting:  Tony says he’ll begin writing for the next No Use For A Name album soon, stating:

I’m excited about this as well. I think it will end up being pretty punk and hard as I am getting the mellow out of my system with the solo stuff.

You can hear a few of Tony Sly’s solo tracks on his myspace page.

For those of you fanatical NOFX fans who can’t seem to get enough NOFX paraphernalia this post is for you!  Apparently you can get authentic NOFX coasters over at the Fat Wreck Chords webstore.  Unlike their last album “Coaster”, this purchase will not include music.
