Originally The Poor Bastards, The Baptist Genrals have been at it for a long time, but good things seem to be on the horizon as they follow their well-regarded debut with one of 2006's most anticipated releases. The band goes for an intentionally lo-fi sound, and recorded its last album on pawn shop instruments.
From staff reports.

Vans Warped Tour 2009 Warped just began -- Dallas is the fifth stop -- so Bad Religion, NOFX et al will still be fresh. This year, they've got fewer stages and longer sets (40 minutes instead of 30). Get there early for Colorado duo 3OH!3 and Brit punkers Gallows (pictured, credit Jay West). More info
