Red Scare Industries, founded by Brenden Kelly (Lawrence Arms) and Tobias Jeg, will be celebrating their 20th anniversary with a compilation entitled Red Scare Industries: 20 Years of Dreaming and Scheming -- available September 6th. The compilation will feature new unreleased tracks from artists such as The Menzingers, Laura Jane Grace, The Falcon, Dead to Me, and many more. A few bands even reformed to contribute a new song like, The Holy Mess, Nothington, and The Lippies. The label comments:
20 Years Of Dreaming And Scheming is 17 unreleased songs from all across the Red Scare expanded universe. We've got some new faces, some Red Scare regulars, some beloved alumni, some guest artists, and even some inactive bands that reformed to give us a new track. Because it's our 20th birthday, we're doing a buncha parties and PR around the milestone, but most importantly, we have these 17 songs. Assembling this has been a labor of love and a heartfelt paean to the punks. We love y'all, and these songs are for you. Sure, there's a couple stinkers in the bunch, but most of them are RAD, and you can only hear these tunes right here. Dreamin' and schemin' indeed!
