An arrest has been made in the senseless murder of former Ramones manager and New York City realtor, Linda Stein. According to CNN,

The suspect is Linda's personal assistant, Natavia Lowery, said police spokesman Paul Browne. She "made statements implicating herself" in the killing, he said.

She's credited with bringing the Ramones to England for their infamous July 4, 1976, show. That performance is often described as the catalyst for the punk movement in Britain. After Stein and Fields parted ways with the Ramones in 1980, she eventually launched a real estate career brokering multimillion-dollar Manhattan apartments for rock and roll royalty.

Seattle, Washington's Panic Records has launched a teaser for the upcoming Trial DVD. The label is owned/operated by former Trial guitarist Timm McIntosh and will be releasing the DVD which will include 4 hours of footage from reunion performances, past footage, interviews and more.

Trial was an influential 90s hardcore band that released Are These Our Lives? via Equal Vision Records and most recently saw Through The Darkest Days/Foundation reissued in 2005.

Fucked Up's performance at Brooklyn, NY's Music Hall of Williamsburg this Saturday, November 10 will contribute a scene to Richard Roepnack's forthcoming film, "Burn." It will be a live take for the movie that "follows the adventures of two arsonist thief lesbian republicans as they tear up dystopian New York City and evade the police, drunk bail bondsmen and aliens."

At one point in the film one of the characters winds up in a club to lose someone on her tail, and walks in on a Fucked Up show. The camera follows her through the crowd during the concert as she finally makes her way on stage with a cop and a bail bondsman trailing.

Fucked Up's set, and anyone watching it will be part of the film. It is being shot by multiple camera angles throughout the building (on 35mm film!). There are no "takes" and no re-do's, however the shot goes and whatever the crowd does, thats how the scene will be captured for the movie.

The show is at 8:00 P.M. and will also feature Mind Eraser and 86 Mentality.

The widely reported story that Radiohead fans opted to pay nothing or nearly nothing has been debunked by the bank themselves. As in the original story, the numbers were drawn from a report by comScore, and reported by The Associated Press.

They made the following statement:

In response to purely speculative figures announced in the press regarding the number of downloads and the price paid for the album, the group’s representatives would like to remind people that… it is impossible for outside organisations to have accurate figures on sales.

However, they can confirm that the figures quoted by the company comScore Inc are wholly inaccurate and in no way reflect definitive market intelligence or, indeed, the true success of the project.

However, the band has declined to publish any official numbers making it very difficult to make any sort of assertion about the future of the donation-sales method.

Underminded have posted two more songs from their Uprising debut, Eleven:Eleven.

Jordan Cooper, who co-founded influential hardcore label Revelation with Ray Cappo of Youth of Today recently participated in a lengthy and detailed interview about the history of the seminal hardcore label.

Besides a nice history of the early hardcore scene, Jordan discusses the organic growing of the label from a place to release a Warzone 7-inch to how they very nearly signed New Found Glory, and the evolution of the early post-hardcore scene.

You can check out the interview here.

Krist Novoselic of Nirvana and Flipper fame has started up a blog via Seattle Weekly. In his first installment, the bassist talks about a recent docu-feature put together by the FUSE network, musing on the edits in meaning often seen on television.

The biggest reason I did the interview is that I wanted to talk about the Anarchy A symbol worn by the cheerleaders in the video, on national television! (I am the bass player in Flipper after all.) Of course anarchy is synonymous with chaos and disorder. But Anarchy has another meaning; it’s about people associating outside of the state structure. Committed Anarchists are actually meeting oriented people.
[...]
[After] they taped my spiel regarding this political philosophy, all that they edited in was my saying that the Anarchy A was in the video because it reflected the underground values from where we came.

Nonoselic goes on to pontificate the actions of "anarchists" such as what he calls "the knuckleheads" who turned the 1999 protests in Seattle violent and the intrinsically impermanent nature of organizations and institutions organized by those who subscribe to such a philosophy.

Of course, don't take our selective cut and paste word for it, you can read it yourself here.

Novoselic's most famous band will be releasing a posthumous DVD this month, the fifth annual release of collected material from the band since 2002.
