Liberty & Justice Premeire "MAD WORLD" Music Video from Upcoming Pressure at New Noise (Contra Records/Death Exclamations!)

Aside from The Clash and despite what Spotify thought (Rockabye Baby! was my "TOP ARTIST") I think, it's pretty safe to say Liberty & Justice were amongst my Favorite Artists of 2020. They self-released a series of singles and charasmatic covers—which largely seem to now be absent—on their Bandcamp page, as well as a phenomenal EP entitled MY AMERICA. We very much enjoyed their pandemic cover of Robyn's "Dacing On My Own" and it's accompanying socially-distant remotely-recorded music video and were fortunate enough to host a premiere of Liberty & Justice's video for their Green Day cover of "Jason Andrew Relva (J.A.R.)" Frontman Ryan "Crowns" Taylor even curated an installment of our recurring column, With The Quickness entitled Telephone Road Street Essentials, Vol. 1 featuring Skinhead, Street Punk & Oi! stand-outs. All the while, we've been hearing rumblings about Liberty & Justice's For All follow-up for quite some time now.

It appears as though Liberty & Justice's sophomore album, Pressure, has finally been properly announced. It's coming early next year, tentatively, spring of 2021 on Cintra Records across Europe and one recently resurrected Death Exclamations here in The US. Following a premiere of "a new town" from MY AMERICA EP with our friends at NO ECHO, Liberty & Justice have returned with yet another music video premiere; this time, it's lead-off Pressure single "MAD WORLD." New Noise Magazine hosted said premeire yesterday afternoon and "MAD WORLD" was directed by Derek Rathbun and features Brian "Fun Boy" Talal Alchamaa (Trash Magz, THE SPITS) along with Liberty & Justice's own Ryan Taylor, Cory Parker, Edwin Carson, Halston Luna & Ramzi Beshara. Below, you'll see Liberty & Justice's feverish "MAD WORLD" music video, as well as a bit of commentary from the band provided eclusively to New Noise. Liberty & Justice's Pressure is expected to drop early next year on Contra Records/Death Exclamations.

While taking traditional cues from the likes of The Templars & 4Skins, L&J aren't content to make by-the-numbers Oi! Instead, giving nods to the channeled [Hardcore] ferocity of Sheer Terror, the sing-along sincerity of The Trouble, the hard-scrabble Outsider Rock sensibilities of The Bruisers, and fight-ready mentality of Houston originalists Tread. Blending it all seamlessly into something authentically their own, L&J unapologetically force their own voice through to the fore and out on to the streets.

Not content to sit on their hands during 2020's loss of stage time and road miles, L&J committed their efforts to the studio. Distilling the frustrations and rage of the year's climate into a counter attack of two EP's and putting the finishing touches on the new Pressure full-length. Scheduled for release spring of 2021, Pressure is a collaborative release effort between European stalwarts Contra Records and the recently resurrected Death Exclamations in The US. Oi! ain't dead! Street Rock ain't dead! And L&J are delivering that message from [Texas] with a boot!

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
