While his band has risen to prominence as one of punk rock’s greatest bands of all time, the Bad Religion drummer has been busy mixing it up with bands such as Tenacious D and fronting his own band, Kidneys. It’s a busy life, he explains, but nothing gets in the way of playing for Bad Religion. more

Currently on their second time on the billing for Soundwave Festival, hitting our shores this March, the band have come out with their third album, People and Things, that lead singer Andrew McMahon calls “The return home”. more

  • Colosoul recently joined up with animal lover Aleisha Caruso from “Extinction Sucks” to deliver urgently needed medical supplies to the animal victims of the Lake Clifton fires in Western Australia. more

  • Why would I travel half way across the world to a secluded Monastery in Southern California to subject myself to this mental anguish? Why eschew my TV, stereo, women and the other personal freedoms we hold and value so dearly?
