Old Wounds are a hardcore band out of New Jersey whose new record, From Where We Came Is Where We’ll Rest is simply mind-numbingly awesome. It’s a combination of everything they’ve done since their beginnings a few years back, and it’s one of the best releases of the year thus far. Hopefully we will have a review of it going up soon, but for now we have something else for you! The band is streaming their new album at Brooklyn Vegan for your listening pleasure so you can see what all the fuss is about. Also, the band is set to release some vinyl of their new record, which is really sweet, especially for underground bands and collectors like myself. It will come in three different versions, so be sure to pick one up! You can preorder them here for your future playings on your record player . In the meantime, sit back, relax, and enjoy some NJ hardcore. And be on the lookout in the coming weeks, because they have a huge nationwide tour! Dates below!

Loudwire Rock Bowl Semifinals And then there were four! That’s right, after beginning with 16 rocking tracks that represented the spirit of football, the 2013 Loudwire Rock Bowl has four football-ready songs still standing. Metallica ‘s hard-hitting classic ‘Seek and Destroy’ advances to face Avenged Sevenfold and their inspirational track ‘Seize the Day. Meanwhile, in the other half of the bracket, Pantera ‘s thrashy ‘F—ing Hostile’ survived and advanced to meet up with the equally brutal ‘Wait and Bleed’ from Slipknot . Which of the remaining four acts have the best football anthem? That’s for you to decide. You can vote for your favorites in the semifinals between now and this Friday (Feb. 1) at 10AM ET to see who will advance to face each other in the 2013 Loudwire Rock Bowl championship round. And remember, voting is allowed once per hour, so vote now and vote often to see your favorite football anthem advance.

Bryan Bedder, Getty Images It was a less than amicable parting of the ways, but after three years away singer Jim Lindberg is rejoining Pennywise . Lindberg and guitarist Fletcher Dragge appeared on KROQ’s Kevin and Bean Show in Los Angeles to make the announcement and revealed that the reunion will finally follow through when they take the stage at a January performance. Dragge explained, “We’re happy to announce that Jim is rejoining Pennywise and we’re all looking forward to playing music together again. We’re going to celebrate our reunion with a show at the Hollywood Palladium, Jan. 18, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Pennywise for our friends and fans in L.A.” Lindberg admitted that being back with the band was somewhat of a surprise, and he joked, “[I feel like] someone who took an Ambien [and] has found themselves down by the lake and they don’t know how they got there.” Dragge revealed that the first step in the reunion came about after “a little self introspection,” and that he called Lindberg while he was at a bachelor party. Lindberg said he had erased Dragge’s number, thinking he’d never hear from him again as he’d repeatedly called following his initial exit only to have Dragge not answer or return any of his messages. Meanwhile, it appears as though things have worked out all around for the singer switch. Zoli Teglas, who joined the group after Lindberg’s exit and sang on the band’s ‘All or Nothing’ album, had back surgery earlier this year, which has kept the band off the road. His recovery has taken longer than expected, and according to both Lindberg and Dragge, the vocalist let it be known he was ready to exit. “He’s actually happy. He’s happy to get the hell out of here,” says Dragge. “Jim told me he was calling and saying, ‘Hurry up and come back man.’” For now, Pennywise just has the 25th anniversary show at the Hollywood Palladium on their schedule. Tickets for the Jan. 18 performance go on sale via Live Nation this Friday (Nov. 2) at noon here .
