The Falcon
Brendan Kelly, Dan Andriano, Neil Hennessy, and Dave Hause
-from Chicago, IL

-The Falcon is a Chicago-based punk rock supergroup. In February 2006, shortly before the release of The Lawrence Arms’ Oh! Calcutta!, longtime friends and bandmates Brendan Kelly and Neil Hennessy reconvened, along with Alkaline Trio’s Dan Andriano, who had previously been a member of Slapstick alongside Kelly, to record The Falcon’s debut LP Unicornography. The Falcon had debuted two years prior, with the hastily-recorded-for-free God Don’t Make No Trash or Up Your Ass with Broken Glass EP, but Unicornography sounded like the well-rounded finished product of a band—a supergroup even—and not just a fun side project. Kelly’s lyrics and compositions were more curt and straightforwardly aggressive; even the album’s more melodic moments like those in “R.L. Burnouts Inc.” and “The La-Z-Boy 500” weren’t without tinges of darkness.

As most side projects go, The Falcon’s members became busy with other stuff, and, other than a handful of shows here and there, the band have been largely quiet. But a song for Red Scare’s 10-year anniversary compilation, as well as a performance at their 10-year anniversary with Dave Hause on second guitar reignited Kelly’s interest in the project. While its members might shy away from the term, there is no question that the Falcon is a punk rock supergroup. I mean, look at this lineup: The Lawrence Arms’ Brendan Kelly and Neil Hennessy, Alkaline Trio’s Dan Andriano and the Loved Ones’ Dave Hause. That is one stacked deck. And now, the band has released their sophomore album, Gather Up The Chaps, on March 18 via Red Scare Industries. We’re stoked to exclusively bring you the co,cever art and tracklisting for Gather Up The Chaps, and we encourage you to order this thing as soon as you can!

Mikey Erg
Mikey Erg
-from New Jersey

-Punk Rock Drummer, Guitarist, Dweeb, Nerd, Dork, Solo guy. Likes Zappa, The Beatles, and Howard Stern, like, A WHOLE LOT! The knock on Mikey Erg is that he’s in a million bands. Which is not a knock, really. The dude works hard. You’ve probably seen him playing guitar or drums in bands like the Copyrights, Off With Their Heads, the Slow Death, the Dopamines, and 40 million other bands since the end of the legendary New Jersey pioneers, the Ergs. But occasionally, Mikey will pack up his guitar and venture out on his own, as a one-man pop punk machine. He’s got a new split seven-inch out with Warren Franklin and the Founding Fathers, where each kicks in a new song plus a cover of each other’s tunes. (Punk rock synergy!) Here’s Mikey ripping through a cover of Franklin’s “You’ve Never Heard (My Aim Is True).”
