The Adolescents ‘Double Down’ on Bad Cops!

With the use of deadly force by police in the national spotlight following the decisions not to indict the officers involved in the Michael Brown shooting and Eric Garner’s chokehold death, the time couldn’t be better for the release of a protest anthem.

Orange County punk veterans THE ADOLESCENTS are back to heed the call with their new album La Vendetta… è un Piatto che va Servito Freddo, a Sicilian phrase meaning “Revenge is a dish best served cold”. We are pleased to premiere one of its 16 tracks, “Double Down,” here.

While the latest controversies surrounding the use of deadly force by police center on the cases of black men, and that’s certainly a huge problem in the U.S., THE ADOLESCENTS are focusing on the case of police interaction with another minority — those who suffer from mental illness.

Stream the track “Double Down” and read Craig Rosen’s full story on yahoo music.

New doc ‘Records Collecting Dust’ documents vinyl collections of famous punk rockers

‘Records Collecting Dust’ will begin a series of nationwide premieres this January, with screenings scheduled through the end of March. In a statement, film producer and Riot House founder Brian Jenkins said there was a conscious push to bring the film to venues outside of larger, more “established” cities.

“Many indie films do a year of theater premieres on the film festival circuit and primarily play in major markets across the country,” Jenkins said. “When I was brought on to this project, Jason and I agreed that we wouldn’t alienate our audience and that we would do our best to make this film accessible to everyone. We’ve got premieres from Los Angeles to Grand Folks, ND scheduled. It’s a film about punk rock records and we wanted to carry that ethic and approach through the filming, editing, and distribution of ‘Records Collecting Dust’.”
