After a jaunt across western Canada, the band slipped back into the U.S. for packed house in Minneapolis. Upon returning to the stage for an encore performance, The Gaslight Anthem paid homage to Florida's Hot Water Music with a cover of their classic track "Trusty Chords". The song was originally released on the LP Caution in 2002.

All attempts at some witty banter aside, I love this band. Their style of pop-punk has just enough punch to it to keep your toe tapping and your fist pumping. Check out three songs, from three of the band's four LP's, below by clicking Read More.

Punknews.org reviews editor Brian Shultz recently put together a video segment for post-hardcore band Make Do and Mend. Here's what he had to say about it:
I had to do a video project for an Online Journalism class at school, so I decided to do a band profile. I decided to do Make Do and Mend since they're an awesome up-and-coming band more people should know about. I figured I may as well have it posted on Punknews since it's relevant and more people could see it. The lighting for the performance is poor, the sound's kinda mediocre and the whole thing's pretty amateur, but whatever.
The band originally self-released the EP Bodies Of Water, but it has since been released via Panic Records. You can check out the video below by clicking Read More.

Video of the Week: Paint It Black's guerilla U-Haul trailer show at Fest 7
Posted by chris on Thursday, November 6, 2008 at 10:00 PM (EST)
This year at the Fest 7 in Gainesville, FL; our Video of the Week comrades National Underground teamed up with beloved Philadelphia hardcore group Paint It Black for a rather unique Fest surprise following the Bouncing Souls' Saturday night headlining set. NU.org head honcho McKenzie Singleton explains:
About five months ago Dan Yemin and I mentioned in contact that we needed to do another PIB show. He said he and Andy Nelson had agreed they "needed to top last year's show" at Dirty Money's apartment. After months of bouncing back emails and such (while they were home from tour) we decided on doing a guerilla show. Just setup in a parking lot and play till the cops shut it down. So, on Halloween, Jason Burroughs and I went to get a uhaul and generator. We lined up a backline with Static Radio from New Jersey. Also drums from James in Dirty Money. Unfortunately, he kicked through his bass drum during their set that afternoon at the Venue Sidehatch. So, someone got ahold of Richard Minino (Horsebites, NMDS, Gatorface) and we used his kick and snare. We found a PA we could use through Vinnie (LTJ, P+P) and Ryan from Dirty Money helped us with that. Then, we had a power conditioner, mic and electrical cables from Eric Wysocki, our NU audio engineer. His car got towed from behind the Venue, so we had no way to use the PA or put the generator anywhere but right in front of the back of the truck. Andy wrote a love note to the Fest that Sue, NU PR Director, had run on pink quarter page notes with hearts on em. We'll get a copy scanned soon. Basically the note said to meet them in the parking lot after the Souls show...
