Rat Beat (Epitaph). Review by Scott Adams.

An Evening of Bad Decisions (Black Numbers). Review by Jen Cray.

Ramones For Kids (Go-Kart). Review by Jen Cray.

The Social, in Orlando, has been frequently offering two-night residencies to bands that can easily sell out the small venue. Booking the bill with big talent and odd packaging, these shows are usually a hot ticket and always memorable. For a holiday treat in December, Bouncing Souls were the band in big letters with hefty support from The Street Dogs , Whole Wheat Bread and World/Inferno Friendship Society. Jen Cray was there for the mayhem on night #2.

Unsound (Epitaph). Review by David Barker.

The Warped Tour brings its annual circus of misfits and mayhem to Orlando. Jen Cray experiences the overindulgence of noise, colors, crowds, heat… and torrential rain.

Compilation (Epitaph). Review by Troy Jewell.

We Have Your Daughter (Radical). Review by Vinnie Apicella.

Various Artists (BYO). Review by Rob Walsh.

Twenty years after founding the Better Youth Organization, Mark and Shawn Stern are still running their pioneering DIY label. They get to surf in Hawaii, bowl with Rancid and be their own bosses. Brian Broccoli pays a visit to the Stern Brothers, who will keep their day jobs.
