R.I.P. Corey Kotsel and R.I.P. Anthony Missasi
thefamily3 suffered two incredible losses in the past few months, but thankfully we have the gift of music to get through it. Tony was a great drummer (most recently in The Ricochet), stupendous Drum Technician (for Gartdrumm), and irreplaceable friend.
A memorial concert is being held for Anthony Missasi on Friday, June 17th at Dave’s Coffee and Wine Haus in Saugerties, NY. 3, The Ricochet, and Nightmares For A Week will be performing in celebration of our friend’s life.

Reblog via jonathonsalas:
“These are the songs, that will bring us together. It’s drunk and cold inside, we’re all going down together.”
I recently started listening to this band(thanks to fuckyeahpop-punk), and I’m getting to love them more and more I listen. I loved them from the very moment I heard Veins. There latest album Don’t Die is so good, and I recommend it. Check this song out, if you like it you should definitely listen to all there stuff (also buy Don’t Die) cause it’s all great.
Titus Andronicus- The Monitor
The Hold Steady- Heaven is Whenever
Bruce Springsteen- The Promise
No Age- Everything In Between
Arcade Fire- The Suburbs
