There are interviews with: Thrice, Thursday, Drive Like You Stole It, Further Seems Forever, Strike Anywhere, Eden Maine, My Chemical Romance, Hidden In Plain View, Go forth and check them out – they’re awesome A message from Bennett of Shouting Myke: “We are playing upstairs at the zodiac in Oxford tomorrow (saturday 28th) and that our stage time is 9.55. We have a couple of surprises and we think that this show would be a perfect place to see us if Jude Law and his semester Obscured Lambgoat is reporting that Grimsby, Ontario’s Jude The Obscure have apparently returned from their hiatus (and just a few weeks after announcing it).
