Release of the Day: Various Artists - “A Shout From the Abyss II” (Make-That-A-Take Records) - Eclectic sampler from this UK label featuring a wide range of indie rock, pop-punk, hardcore, electronica, and more. No two songs sound alike, which must have made sequencing this thing a chore. I was hooked through the first eight or so tracks but found that it trailed off in holding my interest through its second half. Standouts included the bruising hardcore of Burning Flag (think Good Riddance/Ensign), the 90s pop-punk of Dog Earned, the frazzled Blood Brothers screamo Follow Your Dreams, and the chill melodic rock of Sofa Time.

To all the sweethearts who wrote to me asking what time I'm playing @thefestfl this year.... I'm in the UK this time, got a few things to take care of in Scotland before I start my next tour in a few weeks. Have an incredible time, and I'll see you in 2018!! Xx

On Monday I spent 18 hours in transit and 24 awake on the way to Munster, Germany. Yesterday, @joeydonitz and I took a beautiful 12 hour train ride from Munster to Innsbruck, Austria to meet @mikedeecrackus. Today, we're heading to St Gallen. First show on Friday with @thebombpops! Xx

FINAL THREE SHOWS ANNOUNCEMENT!!! Tonight, we will perform Clean Sheets at @bourbonedin in Room 1 at 7.45pm as advertised, but tomorrow we're excited to be performing TWICE at Scotland's most haunted pub ; @thebanshee_labyrinth. We hit the Chamber Room at 5.30pm & the cinema at 12.15am (technically Monday). Join us!! Don't miss out! Xx 📷: Sweet P Photography
