The Ledge #671: New Releases Pt. 2

Believe it or not, there are rules when it comes to what you hear on The Ledge. One of my main rules is that when the new release show is split into two separate shows there is a cutoff date for the material. That deadline is showtime of the first episode. Any material that is sent my way after that is set aside for the next month's series.

But there's no real rules in rock and roll, as proven when I got an email from Rum Bar head honcho Malibu Lou just a fwe hours before this broadcast. Attached to the correspondance was the upcoming new single by The Dogmatics! Hold the presses, kids, as this is a track that has to be fast-tracked. And what a backstory.

The new song, "You've Got What I Want", is the opening blast from a new full-length coming out on July 18. But it's 96 seconds of fury that dates back to the band's earliest rehearsals. Leader Jerry Lehane had attended a show by 80s Boston legends The Outlets, and rushed to the infamous Thayer Street rehearsal loft to write this ferocious rocker. Why they waited almost 45 years to record this classic makes no sense to me, but better late than ever!

Of course, there's plenty of other Rum Bar new releases aired this week, along with new material from Rum Bar associates Beebe Gallini and Brad Marino. There's a wonderful new single by The New Barbarians, and I'm always happy when fellow Real Punk Radio DJ Greg Lonesome has a new Intrusive Thoughts track. 

There's plenty of other highlights this week, and as always I want to know what your favorites are. What records are you looking at adding to your collection?
