Records comp its first-ever vinyl and streaming release, with liner notes by members of Naked Raygun, Rise Against, The Ergs!, Dillinger Four, and more...

The second episode of Lookout! Records' livestream series 'LOOKOUT ZOOMOUT' is this weekend with members of Screeching Weasel, The Mr. T Experience, and more. Ahead of that, Lookout! founder Larry Livermore spoke to us about 12 life-changing concerts...

"Flatten the Curve" features over 30 musicians, including Mike Watt, Cherie Currie (Runaways), Steve McDonald (Redd Kross), Eddie Spaghetti (The Supersuckers), Norwood Fisher (Fishbone), Josie Cotton, Tony Reflex (Adolescents), and Ben Weasel (Screeching Weasel).

Fat Wreck Chords' (in)famous compilation of 101 30-second punk songs is turning 21, and since we're all sitting at home during quarantine, we thought: what if we individually review all 101 songs?

The benefit single features Mike Watt, Cherie Currie, Steve McDonald (Redd Kross), Eddie Spaghetti (The Supersuckers), Norwood Fisher (Fishbone), Josie Cotton, Tony Reflex (Adolescents), Ben Weasel (Screeching Weasel), and many more.

”If we aren't burned alive in Chicago, we wanna do more, and not have to have people make it a destination and pay a ton of money to see us.”
