THURSDAY NOV 19, 2009 - Return of the Awesome Jacket Back!

Y'know, we did these jacket backs as a standard back of mag thing for a long time and we had some real good ones and some lame-os and a few head scratchers, but this one just has us speechless.

The mighty Nikki Sloate spotted these two bros at Riot Fest in Chi-town. Says she: "I asked the 2 young lads if I could take it to turn into PRC and they very coolie and with no expression nodded yes and posed".

Somewhere between clueless and NASCAR. Or extremely awesome and NASCAR. Who knows?!

TUESDAY NOV 10, 2009 - Ex-Danzig Drummer Found "Just Resting" Not Dead!

You just don't know what you're missing until you think it's gone, but isn't really, you just weren't really looking for it until you THOUGHT it was gone, but it's still here, so...CARRY ON!

As you must know by now, punk drum-legend Chuck Biscuits (Black Flag, D.O.A., Danzig) is not dead. Retired for the last ten years, but not dead and living in Seattle, which is now off the "Great Place To Fake A Death" list. For pals of PRC and you nostalgia-lovin' punk types, this is a nice chunk of hoax news, as it offers us all a second to think about Chuck (real name: Charles Montgomery) for the first time in years. With this obstacle out of the way, which one of you young bands out there is gonna drag him back into the spotlight the way Nirvana did with Pat Smear.

THURSDAY OCT 29, 2009 - RIP: Chuck Biscuits of Danzig, Black Flag and Social Distortion


Bummer. Chuck Biscuits who's lent his drumming skills to such legendary musical acts as Danzig, Black Flag and Social Distortion oh and also had stint in D.O.A, Circle Jerks, Samhain, Pointed Sticks, Subhumans, Weirdos, Fear, The Four Horsemen, Floorlords, and Brown Sound has gone and died. He left this realm on Saturday October 24th succumbing to a battle with throat cancer. He was a mere 44...that's a lot of bands to put into just 44 years.

James Greene, Jr., a freelance music writer from Brooklyn, New York
, reported that:

"In response to the inquires, thank you for all the support," an anonymous family member wrote in an e-mail sent yesterday morning. "Chuck did not survive his battle with throat cancer. He passed surrounded by his family on 10/24/09."

Chuck Biscuits was probably best known to the general populous for his work with DANZIG. Beginning in 1988, Chuck played on that group's first four albums, which are often hailed as DANZIG's best (thanks in no small part to Chuck's powerful drumming style). The percussionist also appeared on 1993's "Thrall: Demonsweatlive" EP; that release yielded an unexpected chart-burning hit for DANZIG in "Mother" a song the band originally included on their self-titled debut."

THURSDAY OCT 29, 2009 - Dude...What Was He Thinking? Pete Wentz Gets a Drunk Tat Of...



Yeah, if i had a dime for everyone I knew who sported a drunk tattoo or a "i lost a bet" tattoo I'd have a like sixty-five cents. But Pete Wentz lost a bet AND was drunk when he got the tribute tat to the frontman of Cobra Starship recently. On his twitter account he wrote:

"my head hurts. i was buzzed lightyear last night.
followed thru on a gentlemens bet w/@gabrielsaporta now i have 1 more
bad tattoo.


my brain needs to stop kicking my eyeballs in the face. it makes sense in my head."


Yeah, kids today. You'd think he'd get a tribute tat of his wifey wife Ashlee in character on Melrose Place or maybe one of his son Bronx Mowgli. But no, Cobra Starship guy it is!
