October 9th: Ignite LP ‘Still Wide Awake’ announcement and pre-order!

Orange County melodic hardcore veterans Ignite lead the charge as one of the flagship artists launching Vinyl Threat Records, the newly minted label emerging from The Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas. Back with a vengeance as a lean, mean four-piece formation, the band is locked and loaded to unleash their blistering new full-length, ‘Still Wide Awake’, on January 15th, 2027. Driven by their unmistakable blend of raw intensity, soaring melody, and unapologetic hardcore DNA, the new songs deliver some of the most aggressive, fast, and socially urgent music of their career. That momentum is already in full swing after they shot two brand-new music videos on the museum grounds for the album’s first singles, ‘Still Wide Awake’ and ‘Guilty Wounds’, with the former set to drop on October 9th.

“Being associated with The Punk Rock Museum is a huge honor for us; that space is absolute hallowed ground given all the music history under one roof,” says Ignite bassist Brett Rasmussen. “Partnering with Vinnie, Tom and the rest of the Vinyl Threat team is the ideal setup for this record. We wanted a label partnership anchored in that true hands-on, DIY punk and hardcore work ethic, and having already shot our first two music videos right inside the museum, this collaboration felt completely natural from day one.”

Pre-orders for the LP ‘Still Wide Awake’ are available now! Pre-order HERE!

November 6th: Bar Stool Preachers North American vinyl release!

Bar Stool Preachers – ‘Party Eternal’ artwork

Produced by legendary Los Angeles producer Cameron Webb, whose acclaimed career includes work with Beastie Boys, Motorhead, Social Distortion, Def Jam Recordings, Kelly Clarkson and NOFX. ‘Party Eternal’, the fourth studio album, captures The Bar Stool Preachers at their most ambitious and accomplished.

Blisteringly good from start to finish, ‘Party Eternal‘ combines the very best of Brit-pop, ska, rock and indie into a collection of songs built for packed venues, festival fields and late-night singalongs. At times scathing and politically charged, at others pure escapism, the record delivers huge hooks, infectious melodies and an undeniable sense of optimism.

‘Party Eternal’ will be available on vinyl in North America on November 6th, 2026, through Vinyl Threat Records. Pre-order coming soon!
