Manchester Punk Festival have released the 40th volume of their name your price compilation series via Bandcamp ahead of this year’s…
Canadian Punk Rock mainstays Calling All Captains have released the video for their latest single, Blood For Blood, that is taken from the band’s upcoming EP, The Things That I’ve Lost, that is due out on January 9th 2026 via New Damage Records. The video captures the band at their most visceral and unfiltered and was filmed live during the sold-out Ten Second Epic Reunion Show at Union Hall in their hometown of Edmonton. Rather than relying on scripted visuals or polished production, the band chose to document the raw energy of a real moment, a packed room, full volume, and a crowd fully locked in.
“We wanted the ‘Blood For Blood’ video to feel exactly like being in that room. It was filmed in our hometown of Edmonton at the iconic Ten Second Epic reunion show, sold out at Union Hall. No sets, no storyline, no polish. Just a packed room, full volume, and everyone locked into the same moment. That night meant a lot to us, and capturing it live felt like the most honest way to document where we’re at as a band right now. This song is an imaginary confrontation between you and the worst version of yourself. It takes place at the end of your life, as you reconcile with your choices, both good and evil. It’s about coming to terms with the corner of your mind called darkness. Understanding that darkness can be terrifying but freeing, even if it creates internal struggle. This song represents the conflict of emotions within one soul, and how those emotions shape our choices.” (vocalist Luc Gauthier)

Calling All Captains have also announced an intimate album release show at Edmonton’s Temple at Starlite on January 10th which is presented by 100.3 The Bear and features special guest Darryl Saves Lives. Tickets are available here.
