2/03/08 – HELP SAVE FLC! ACOUSTIC BENEFIT show 3/1 @ FLC!!!

Saturday March 1 @ FLC
Acoustic benefit show to SAVE THE FLC!!! OUR FIRST ACOUSTIC SHOW!!! 

Starring your favorite hometown bands playing acoustic only sets - like Daly's Gone Wrong, A Moment's Worth, The Laysan Rail, If But When, Athena's Fury and MORE!!!! Acoustic acts like Drew Torres, The Mike Costello solo project, Beautiful Laundry and more!!!
This show is a benefit for The First Lutheran Church (FLC). Not for BRONX UNDERGROUND but for the church itself.  The church is in financial troubles and we need to help them! Without the church (the building itself and the support of the awesome people who allow our shows to happen there), there would be no FLC shows - and a big part of our scene would be missing.

Admission to this acoustic benefit show  is only $5. Additional donations are greatly appreciated.

4/26/07 – May 2nd Now = Endwell, Emmure, The Human Abstract and Undying Devotion

Unfortunately It Dies Today cannot play the May 2nd show at Amvets. They are playing the Bamboozle Festival a few days later and they are not allowed to play another show in the area that week. It Dies Today did not want to drop off the show and we both did everything we possibly could to keep this from happening. This was brought to our attention within the last few days.

We are now happy to annouce that EMMURE has been added to this show!!! so come out for an incredible night and an incredible show unlike anything that has been in the Bronx before.
Support!

The show now features: Endwell (Victory Records), Emmure (Victory Records), The Human Abstract (Hopeless Records) and Bronx's own Undying Devotion! TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR!

For those of you have bought presale tickets and would like a refund (LAME!!) you will need to come to one of our upcoming shows with ID for a full refund. It needs to be in person so we can be sure it is going to the right person.

Everyone come out to this amazing show and don't forget Set Your Goals and Just Surrender on May 31st at Amvets too!

2/24/07 - What's been going on?!!?
Whooo! I'ts been a while since we updated this, so I figured I might as well clue you into what's been going on here at the Bronx Underground!

The shows in December, January and February were some of the highest attended shows we've ever had- and yet even with all the strange new faces we still feel like family! I love seeing everyone looking out for each other in the pit. When Endwell (Victory Records) came and played, they told us that you were one of the best crowds they had played in front of in the whole US!! You guys RULE!

We are trying our best to get bigger and better label supported bands to come out for you guys- and you can play a part in that. Write to your favorite bands and their record labels or booking agents: SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THE BRONX UNDERGROUND. If enough people ask about it, they just might come out for you!

We've got new hoodies coming to us in March, I know they sold out in January- so we reordered. If it's too warm in March, buy one anyway, because they may not be here next year.
Oh, and keep your eyes and ears open: AMVETS is COMING BACK SOON!!!

---Dave

12/16/06 – End 2006 with a bang!
Hey everyone! Thanks for making 2006 another awesome year for Bronx Underground! Our scene is amazing and we thank all of you who come to or play the shows for that.  Without you, the scene would be nothing!

So end 2006 with us at FLC on December 29th with ENDWELL, Only Hell Remains, Undying Devotion, No Goodbyes and Atlantic Victory! This show is going to be AMAZING. 

Adam, Dave, Anita

7/17/06 - Settle down mah babies!!!
The summer has been going great. July's FLC was awesome and the first show at our new beach club venue was great. Thanks to everyone for coming out and supporting our first ever 2-show month!

This Friday's FLC is looking to be crazy as always. Check out the lineup on the flyer.

In other very exciting news, filming has concluded for the upcoming DVD Documentary. It is coming out amazing and we cannot wait until it is finished. Head over to our myspace page: www.myspace.com/bronxunderground and check out the two trailers.

See you all Friday and thanks for coming to the shows. Without all of you supporting the Bronx Underground, we would not be able to put on such great shows.

We love you all.

6/7/06– Guilt Brand Clothing on sale at FLC
So now that I got off my ass and actually got things moving, it seems like Guilt Brand Clothing is actually going to happen. 2 different t-shirts will be on sale at FLC in the back merch area, so bring some extra cash. If you'll buy enough, maybe I could even afford dinner that day for all my 14 children... and some of the baby-momas.

Oh, and add me to friends (pics of tshirts are available): myspace.com/guiltbrandclothing

7/30/05– The Summer of Ridiculous Proportions!
So those of you who have been following the action here at The Bronx Underground know what's been up. We just celebrated our One Year Anniversary at the First Lutheran Church, and that show was AWESOME. Check out the pics provided by Elle to get a glimpse of the bands, fans, breakdancing, glowsticks, awards, underwear, couples making out, DJ and techno spinning, punk rocking, hardcore moshing and all out excitement that occurred. Those of you that attended, thanks for continuing to make this venue the best place to rock in NYC.

We have several exciting shows in the works, including the new CD release from local pop-punk heroes 4-Seen in August (see the main flyer for details), the long awaited Dalys Gone Wrong full length release in September (including the return of One Way Letter) and Rumors of upcoming Turns to Fall and Athenas Fury CD's (maybe October? Who knows?).

In addition to planning and celebrating our first anniversary at FLC, we have been hard at work prepping the Bronx Underground Compilation CD, which is due to be released at our FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY SHOW (That's right, we are old bastards now- this scene is five years old and running strong)!! I have spent over 100 hours so far locked into a tiny red room with engineer extraordinaire Dave Andronico laying out the framework for what will be the most awesome compilation CD you have ever heard. A whole CD of completely new, unreleased material from the best bands to perform at the Bronx Underground over the last year. Every track from every band that has participated so far is OFF THE HOOK. So far we have finished tracks from 4 In Tha Chamber, 4 Seen, Afflitus, A Moments Worth, At A loss, Athena's Fury, Dead On A Friday, Diluted Society, How I Became A Pirate, and Turns To Fall.

And MORE bands are still scheduled to come in, so if you're not anticipating this album- you're crazy or dead!!!

This year is turning out to be one hell of a party! As always, see you at the shows!

Dave

6/03/05 – Caught in a Mosh!
Well last month's show was awesome! We probably had one of the most brutal pits we've ever had at any of our shows and I was so glad to have been able to play the show for once instead of just helping to run it. You all rock as always!! Seemed like everyone enjoyed the dancing...the cupcakes...the ska....the metal. Are you guys looking to get some sort of baked goods every show? I'm not sure if we can pull that off. It's not Robin the door girl's birthday every month. Though, it could be. hmmmm..... Moving on.....Please make sure to check out the message board. Talk about whatever you want; shows, music, star wars, whatever! It's fun.  and don't forget about the street team. If you want to join and haven't done so already, click on that link that says street team up there. You know you wanna flyer! You know you want stickers and stuff! Do it! Get involved! So who's coming up this month, Friday, June 17th ?

Diluted Society - Do we need to tell you anything about them? come on. Bronx punk forever
One Way letter - Awesome band with a fem singer -  back in FLC from Georgia - helloooo nurse
Hometown Anthem - Punky emoy indie-y goodness from NJ
Billy The Kid- If Stan's band is as awesome as he made our website, yow!
Hinderense - Metal up your ass from The Bronx.

Speaking of super secrets....what could we have up our sleeves next?
Tom9d: "Rectal Thermometers?"
Ian: "More Cupcakes"
Unattached: "A Lemon"
Supermark: "Arms, I bet"
Who knows!

Adam

4/18/05 – New music added
Hey guys. New live recordings from the Idle Minds release show at the FLC have been added to the media section. A total of 5 songs - Idle Minds, Turns to Fall, 4 in tha Chamber, Endless Portrayals and Everythings Ruined. Be sure to give them a listen.

Stan

3/1/05 – Too Much Excitement to Bear
The show coming up this month is looking to be one of the biggest shows we have put together for you in a while. THREE of the best bands in the scene for each genre (in my opinion) will be playing on the same bill!

Afflitus will be celebrating the long overdue release of their first album: No One on the Other End. Explosive guitars and in your face beat downs galore on the ten song disc, available for the first time in the Bronx !

Athena's Fury is possibly one of the most emotional and heartfelt bands you will ever watch. I was brought to tears at one of their shows. (edit: Stan: You big pussy. ) Thank god I'm a happy guy, otherwise don't think I could have taken it!

The Flaming Tsunamis! – More Fourth Wave Ska, coming at you! This is the new direction ska is heading, along with bands like the Dalys Gone Wrong- and I LOVE it. If you haven't heard their EP “Zombies Vs. Robots” make sure you pick it up.

Along with these three powerhouses we will have three more bands AND some special guests!

Also, we will be selling Liquid Fanzine, a magazine devoted to the NYC DIY scene for only $1 a copy. This month, they devoted their issue to Bronx bands, and there is an Expose on the Bronx Underground itself. Pick that up, and get your head into all the Music that is going on in your ‘hood.

Also this month we have a surprise for you all- past shows have been clamoring for an event like this one to occur, and I guarantee you will all love it!

In other news, Dead On A Friday (check out new releases- they have one too!) was in the studio this week adding their song to the Bronx Comp. Yes, I am still working on it- no it is not close to being finished.

See you at the show!!!

Dave
