Have Heart's 'The Things We Carry' 10th Anniversary - limited screen printed poster and special deals
This week marks the 10th anniversary of Have Heart's classic full-length debut, The Things We Carry. This album marked a new era for hardcore, taking cornerstone inspirations like Youth of Today, Turning Point, Outspoken, and Bane while developing an entirely fresh sound. If that wasn't enough, it avoided the hardcore lyrical cliches becoming so prominent by that time, touching not only on straight-edge, but philosophy, heartbreak, and regret with a poetic yet aggressive edge. Frontman Pat Flynn showed a side of thoughtfulness and contemplation in rage that previously had went largely uncovered.
We're celebrating its 10th year of existence with a limited edition, six-color, hand-numbered screen printed poster based on the original cover artwork. In addition, we're offering a copy of their What Counts 12" (Triple B Records) for FREE while supplies last when you buy a copy of the latest pressing of The Things We Carry LP. You can also grab a Have Heart banner for only $10, for a limited time.
We'll be taking pre-orders on the screen printed poster for ONE WEEK only, so grab one while you can at B9Store.com!
Expire announce breakup, more tour dates
Expire are sadly calling it quits after a few final rounds of touring this year and the next. Check below for a statement from the band, lots of upcoming international tour dates, and stay tuned for a With Regret pre-order soon.
"Come Spring of next year, we'll be putting the band to rest. There isn't some huge explanation to give. To put it simply, we all decided that we would rather end it on our terms and when we want to, rather than fade off. We've never been the type to only play a few shows here and there or sit dormant for any amount of time. Expire started as a band that didn't know how to slow down and that's the way we'll end it.
This band snowballed into something none of us planned for and before it's done, we want to extend a very real thank you to anyone and everyone who had a part in it over the past 7 years. Writing this comes with a pretty insane feeling, but really; thanks for supporting us, it's been fun.
Starting in September, we'll begin to say our goodbyes. Not even going to pretend like we will make it to every single city that's meant something to us, but we'll sure as hell try. Below are the dates we have as of now. Our final U.S. tour will be next spring so expect that to be announced sometime in the next few months.
Obviously with all of this being said, With Regret will be our final album. We could toss in one of a thousand cliches about it but simply put, it's the record we wanted to leave on.
We'll see y'all this fall
Marcus, Kip, Josh and Zach

Expire announce new album, 'With Regret'
Expire return with their third full-length, With Regret, due out September 23rd. A little heavier and just as fierce as ever, the Midwest Blood champions cruise across sub-two-minute juggernauts purging their feelings on damaged relationships and introspective exorcisms. With Regret is the first Expire album recorded outside of their mainstay studio, Howl Street, having traveled up to Chicago's Bricktop Studios with Andy Nelson. The new environment takes them out of their comfort zone and results in subtle new twists to the band's sound, which bounces with a caustic, fraught anxiety, more memorable riffs, and focused vocals that retain all their previous bile and despair.
Expire, who formed back in 2009, have released two highly-acclaimed full-lengths (Pendulum Swings, 2012 and Pretty Low, 2014) and a handful of EPs (Grim Rhythm in 2010, Suffer The Cycle in 2011 and Sink With Me in 2012), and most recently released their Old Songs compilation earlier this year. They've toured the globe countless times over in their seven-year career, and in support of With Regret they'll canvas North America with Stick To Your Guns, Stray From The Path, and Knocked Loose. Tour dates can be found below, along with track listing and cover art for With Regret.
