BLOODSTAINS Share Live At Vinyl Solution Livestream/In-store Demo 2020 Record Release Show (Bandcamp-only EP)

There really isn't too much to say here, but... BLOODSTAINS from Orange County, California have quickly become one of our personal favorite Punk/Hardcore bands around these parts. We were turned onto these guys, via our fellow writer Punk/Hip-Hop supporter Ben Merlis somewhere on Facebook. BLOODSTAINS consists of frontman Cesar Eduardo "Eddie" Marin, guitarist David Espinoza, bassist Nick Espinoza, and drummer Vince Catanho. BLOODSTAINS self-released their 3-song demo tape, simply titled Demo 2020, late last year and more recently, uploaded a $5.00 cassette tape to tehir Bandcamp page. It sounds like, in an ideal world, BLOODSTAINS would have liked to been able to play a proper album release show for Demo 2020.

"Unfortunately, due to restrictions, we can't have a proper release show for our demo tape we put out, but we will be live on Instagram tomorrow night, if you'd like to tune in and "stage dive" off your couch," Cesar Marin shared on Facebook. BLOODSTAINS' Beach Blvd. Session in-store performance at Vinyl Solution located in Huntington Beach, California was set to be livestreamed on Saturday, March 6, 2021 at 7:00pm. We, here at The Witzard, unfortunately, missed it due to obligations to our newly-acquired "second job" (AKA parenthood,) but lucky for us and anyone else who may have missed it, BLOODSTAINS complete nearly 14-minute set has now been uploaded by YouTube user 1080punx HD.

BLOODSTAINS' set features the entirety of their aforementioned 3-track Demo 2020, as well as an instrumental intro medley and what appears to be a cover of Joy Division's "Warsaw." It's truly a riveting, frenzied performance from a new band most of us haven't been able to see live yet and who knows when we may be able to see in-person live shows again Nation-wide. BLOODSTAINS definitely remind us of The Misfits, Henry Rollins-era Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Descendents, Minor Threat, and Fugazi, but, at the same time, sound like something totally new and different. It's currently unclear what's next for BLOODSTAINS, but rest assured, it's gonna be awesome and we'll be here for it! BLOODSTAINS' Demo 2020 EP is now available exclusively on Bandcamp with cassettes at select record stores across California.

[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
