Introducing The RiCCioLi Run Down

The RiCCioLi Rundown

What’s going on everyone? Here at Punk The Clock we are introducing a new weekly column called “The RiCCioLi Rundown” starring me! Basically, I will be updating you all with anything Punk The Clock or Punk The Clock related. News, bands, tours, albums, videos, whatever. So enjoy!

For our first piece of news, I am honored to present The Matches brand new video for “Salty Eyes” off their 2006 album “Decomposer.” It is literally in my top 5 albums of last year and I personally have been a huge fan of theirs since E. Von Dahl Killed The Locals. Their live shows are amazing and I believe Shawn (lead singer, guitar) is one of the best frontman in the scene these days. Catch them on this years Warped Tour and on the Punk The Clock Vol. 3: Property Of A Gentleman cd!

Secondly, I want to talk about our good friends My American Heart. This Tuesday, June 25th, their sophmore album; “Hiding Inside The Horrible Weather” was released. I strongly suggest you all go out tomorrow and purchase this album. It can also be preordered at smartpunk.com and comes with a free poster. Also, the first 50 people to pre order the disc is entered into a contest to enjoy a private BBQ Acoustic performance in San Diego. Here more of these guys at:

Finally, a special thanks goes out to all of the bands that just wrapped up their two month tour on The Punk The Clock Presents tour. The Audition, My American Heart, Monty Are I, New Atlantic, The Graduate, and 1997 made this such a great tour. Most of the shows sold out and it proved to be a huge success. We look forward to working with each and everyone of these artists sometime in the near future.

Thank you all for reading and please check back for updates weekly. As always, I would love to hear if anyone has anything to say. Don’t be shy.

The Starting Line -

Wow! We are super pysched about the Punk the Clock tracklisting-

People we know you have been hitting our website a lot lately (thank you) and asking what we do, who we are and what the hell is Punk the Clock.

Punk the Clock is a compilation of upcoming artist supported by headliners, we are getting ready to release Volume 3 "Property of a Gentleman". Each year the compilation is supported with a tour for volume 3 Punk The Clock will have 3 US tours.(Jack Mannequin West Coast Winter tour and The Audition Spring 2007 tour)
Which leaves one more in 2008. The Key here is to support the bands that are featured on the compilation. Each Punk the Clock compilation will benefit a charity Vol 3 benefits Andrew McMahon's "Dear Jack Foundation"

Any questions?
