New Jersey ska-punk veterans Streetlight Manifesto are independently releasing colored vinyl reissues of all their full-length albums, except the re-record Keasbey Nights. Everything Went Numb, Somewhere In The Between, 99 Songs Of Revolution: Volume 1, and The Hands That Thieve are all available on white colored vinyl on the band’s webstore. You can get them separately, or in a bundle with all four records.

They’ve also repressed Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution’s A Call To Arms EP for the first time in seven years. That’s available here.

You may recall that Streetlight Manifesto went through a very long, public legal battle with Victory Records over the rights to their master recordings. In 2017, the label relented and agreed to sell the masters to the band, enabling them to reissue these records through their own label Pentimento Music Company.

Streetlight last released The Hands That Thieve in 2013. They teased plans for a new album a few years back, promising to “release this behemoth of a record sometime in 2022”. So far nothing has come of that, but we’ll keep you posted if that changes.

In fact, she welcomes it, as her latest dose of empower-pop may be abrasive on the title card, but under the aggressive surface is a tender sentiment of self-realization and a decision to refuse giving in to anyone else’s needs or narrative. She’s growing stronger, she’s growing bigger, despite what those around us may say or do. “We […]</p>

Astral Bitch launch into grungy new single ‘You’ve Got it Wrong’

<p>NASA’s overlooking a serious resource by not using Astral Bitch’s inflammatory grunge as rocket fuel. Case in point — the Boston band launches a defunct friendship into the stratosphere with their new single “You’ve Got it Wrong,” a biting final chapter for a close bond that needs to be broken. The new track arrived last week (February 28) with an equally cutting b-side titled “How to Breathe.” “One of the most painful aspects about growing up was realizing how some […]</p>
