Rise Records have signed the legendary hardcore band 7 Seconds to their roster.
Forming in Reno, NV in January 1980, 7 Seconds was the originator of the West Coast Hardcore sound that has had untold influence on the punk landscape as they were one of the first to do the positive hardcore attitude. Unlike many bands from that era, the band still has its original 3 members from 1982: Kevin Seconds, Steve Youth and Troy Mowat, plus Bobby Adams, who has been with the band since 1986.
The band will be recording new material this summer in Sacramento with plans to release a new 7″ record followed shortly thereafter by a new full length album. Kevin Seconds expanded:
We have about 20 new songs that we’ll record the best 13 songs from. This new record will be all about the energy and drive we still very much possess as a hardcore band. It’s been 9 long years since we’ve recorded a new album so there’s a great deal of urgency in them, with just the right mixture of both fast and mid-tempo tunes for people to sink their teeth into.
There is also talks of re-releasing back catalog for a special edition vinyl box-set and possibly recording their first 20 songs written in 1979 in which only 3 were recorded using a hand held tape recorder.

Hawthorne Heights has revealed new album details for their forthcoming full length, Zero, which is due out June 25, 2013 via Red River Entertainment/ Sony/ RED and was recorded with producer Brian Virtue (30 Seconds To Mars, Chevelle, Audioslave). Drummer Eron Bucciarelli explains the album’s direction:
“Just to give everyone a bit of insight on the concept behind the record - Zero, at its core, is a story of good and evil… The setting is a dystopian future where a totalitarian corporation has risen to power in the wake of a disaster, “The Fires”. Zero is an account of the events from the perspective of the main character in the story, “Baker”. The album’s track listing is based upon those events.”
Album art, track listing, and a brand new teaser video can be found here courtesy AltPress.

After fixing a little bug in our media gallery, we’re back with a vengeance and have posted a ton of new photos for you to devour.
We’ll start out West in Denver, Colorado as Mike Fajardo captured an intimate Lucero acoustic show at Illegal Pete’s in April. You can check out those pictures here.
Heading up North, Chris Wedman has been busy up in Calgary, Alberta and recently snapped some photos of Anberlin, Make Do and Mend and Knucklehead with The Hockey Fight.
And finally we hit up the East Coast as our resident Toronto photographer got some images of Riot Fest Toronto last year featuring the likes of NOFX, Descendents, Andrew WK, Lawrence Arms, Hot Water Music and Less Than Jake here.
