Chris Wollard, formerly of Hot Water Music and The Draft, as well as lesser-known luminaries like Rumbleseat, The Blacktop Cadence, and Cro(w)s, will be releasing his debut solo album, “and the Ship Thieves,” next Tuesday, February 17th.

To celebrate, our friends over at Punknews.org have launched a stream of the entire album, which you can check out here.

More information about the release can be found over on their profile page.

No Idea records /Kiss of Death records/Gainesville, Fl work horses Young Livers, are gearing up to embark on their first full European tour to support their critically acclaimed debut album The New Drop Era previously released jointly by both labels last fall.

Young Livers had this to say about the tour and a few things they have cookin:

“We took a little time from shows this summer to work towards writing a new record and we are all excited as we head over seas this fall for the first time with three new 7 inches, Live at the Atlantic 01 on Sound Study, Bridge and Tunnel/Young Livers split on No Idea and a split with Attack! Vipers! on Yo Yo Records. The best is getting to come home after all this insanity and dive right into the FEST 7!!
