Bane are currently not on Equal Vision Records so they decided to release a crop of 7"s on different labels throughout the world, each one with a different photo. The title comes from when the photo was taken. It is a cool undertaking if you ask me. Not like you would ask me. Anyhow, we have the Dublin 11:58 PM record with three songs named after soap operas. Bane lately has been on the outs with me as I thought their last album, The Note, wasn't up to Bane standards of great fast thoughtful hardcore that the band has been doing for over a decade. However, these three songs are great. If you miss the Bane of old, hell even the Bane of Holding This Moment-era, then Dublin 11:58pm will bring it all back to you. This is a fantastic idea as well as a fantastic record. I can't wait to hear other installments.

It has indeed been a number of years since we last heard from Bane; their last full-length - The Note - came out in 2005, and with the hectic touring schedule that the band maintains, these seven inches are the first new recording from the band in quite some time (their Ten Year Plus 7" were old recordings that were … Read more

It has been literally years since I have been so taken with a hardcore record, and I am not talking about saying that you love a record with all your being; but rather I am talking about living with the record and sleeping with the record still going on in your desperate feverish brain while some batch of loveable hooligans … Read more
