Blast into your weekend with two brand new/not new releases! Out today, PEARS’ Go to Prison and Useless ID’s The Lost Broken Bones. We couldn’t be more excited to get each of these releases to the masses under the Fat banner. Our New Orleans hardcore upstarts, PEARS, do not know what it means to relax. Not only have they been recording their new album which is set to be released in 2016, but they are playing a grip of shows: our Fat Anniversary shows in San Francisco and Los Angeles, Riot Fest, a tour with Teenage Bottlerocket and FEST!

Today, Substream Magazine is premiering “Dissolve,” a bonus track culled from our brand new reissue of Useless ID’s The Lost Broken Bones!

Our reissue comes out tomorrow and contains seven bonus tracks from the same era. If you haven’t ordered your copy, do so today, then check out a brand new review which garnered the album a 10/10!

Joey Cape will be the first to tell you that the past few years haven’t exactly been the easiest on him. Of course, there’s the problems that affect many an aging punk—Joey is closing in on 50, and it’s not like there’s a pension plan for punk rock—but then there are the permanent departures that continue to mount as a scene that was built on the “live fast, die young” mantra is now losing some of its finest members.
