New PIEBALD Album 'Tales For The Rages' - Bridge Nine has a limited-to-150 LP variant!

March 12, 2026 Bridge Nine

After nearly two decades, PIEBALD return with Tales For The Rages, featuring 13 tracks of emo x indie-rock greatness, written and recorded between 2019–2025 after the band's 2016 reunion sparked a steady flood of riffs, melodies, and lyrics that refused to fade.

It picks up where they left off while confidently pushing forward — not a nostalgia play, but a natural next chapter. Tracked at The Den in North Reading, MA with longtime collaborator Doug Batchelder, the album was produced in part by Jay Maas (Title Fight, Citizen) and mastered by Jack Shirley (Joyce Manor).

The album captures the band’s signature mix of melody, humor, and emotional candor, anchored by massive hooks and harmonies, with an undercurrent of social awareness reflecting on inequality, human behavior, and the strange modern world.

Released via Iodine Recordings, Tales for the Rages marks a new chapter built from the same spirit that defined Piebald’s earlier work, carried forward with renewed urgency and clarity.

Bridge Nine Records is excited to offer an exclusive variant for this new release, 'This Thing is (G)old’ vinyl, limited to 150 - click here to purchase!

TRACK LISTING:

1. Still On the Couch

2. This Thing is Old

3. Used to Good Advantage

4. Gentlemen Callers

5. Conundrum Speculator

6. More Month Than Money

7. Fun Destroyer

8. Power Smile

9. No One Seems To Mind

10. Dance Till We Fall Apart

11. Cooler Heads Prevail

12. Strangest Dream

13. River Below

T-Shirt Tuesday: Have Heart 10.17.09 T-Shirt

February 17, 2026 Bridge Nine

This HAVE HEART T-shirt was made to commemorate the band’s “final” show on 10.17.09. It was an homage to a Ten Yard Fight T-shirt (and “final” show promo stencil) that had been released a decade earlier.

The 10.17.09 was taken straight from the stencil that Bridge Nine had used for Ten Yard Fight in 1999 (with a little number swap to make in ‘09). Chris Wrenn cut out the stencil for the Have Heart info and spray-painted it onto paper.

150 T-shirts were produced, each with a hand-numbered woven Bridge Nine label sewn onto the sleeve. The Bridge Nine logo & shirt size information are silkscreened on the inside of the T-shirt's neck.Check it out in the archive HERE!

Fenway Punk is out NOW! You can grab it here: Beverly, MA / USA / Canada / Europe

Friday, February 13th, was the kickoff party at Bridge Nine for the release of Fenway Punk, the new book by Bridge Nine founder Chris Wrenn. It’s the true story of how Red Sox fans and the long-standing rivalry with the New York Yankees helped fund the Bridge Nine record label in the early 2000s. Chris was joined by Jared Carrabis of the Section 10 Podcast, and the two longtime collaborators chatted about the intersection of Boston punk and sports, the birth of the Sully’s brand, and how the money earned from peddling “Yankees Suck” merch on the sidewalk outside of Fenway Park over twenty-five years ago helped Chris to document an entire generation of hardcore punk bands and send them on tour all over the world.

We’ll be adding more photos and video to this post, so check back!
