Legendary NYHC band AGNOSTIC FRONT will play the exact same set from their classic live album, Live At CBGB’s, during their upcoming performance at the CBGB’s Music Festival. The show will take place on July 5th at the Webster Hall in NYC.

"We are very excited to be performing on the opening night of the CBGB's Music Festival in NYC", commented vocalist Roger Miret. “We are wrapping up shows on our 30 Year Anniversary Tour and we are performing the classic Live at CBGB’s set list from the 1989 iconic release! We have been invited to join this festival for their biggest opening night at the monumental Webster Hall club. We are very excited to have landed a great homecoming show in our celebration as a band for 30 years. And to top it all off, we are doing this nostalgic gig with our brothers MADBALL. I hear there will be 2 more exciting bands to be added to this lineup. Come on out and share our celebration in this hardcore world and get ready for another Live at CBGB’s performance!"

In conjunction with Agnostic Front's 30th anniversary shows in June and July, where they'll be playing their classic record Live At CBGB from start to finish, Bridge Nine Records has announced today that the label will be reissuing said record on July 17th. Featuring an embossed LP cover with the original Live at CBGB artwork, the label will also be pressing the music on super limited edition red, white and blue striped vinyl with multiple other colorways available.

Agnostic Front vocalist Roger Miret said, "With this year being our 30 year anniversary as a band with myself singing I wanted to play a special show here and there so I came up with the idea of playing our classic Live At CBGB set. This was the set front to back from our legendary live recording released in 1989. That was a magical time for the band and Hardcore was thriving at it's best in 1988 when it was recorded. As an honorable family member with the Bridge Nine crew, I knew that the label should be home to this special re-release as much as CBGB was home to Agnostic Front. We are making this re-release very special for the record collector in a red, white and blue color and our timeless original cover embossed to add that punch it held back in 1989 as intense today in 2012! Along with this special re-release we are doing a handful of special shows in the U.S. to coordinate with the release. This will be a great release team effort with Agnostic Front and Bridge Nine… here it is - the glory days of 1988 New York City Hardcore as relevant today, tomorrow and forever!"

Artist Series Guitar (ASG) recently announced the release of the exclusive signature guitar from Agnostic Front. The guitar, aka “Stigma” marks the 30th anniversary of this gritty New York City punk institution and is named for main songwriter and guitarist Vinnie Stigma.

Responsible for helping to define the urban New York hardcore sound with 1984’s Victim In Pain album and known as one of the first bands to introduce heavy metal to hardcore punk in 1986’s Cause For Alarm, Agnostic Front’s Stigma guitar is a flat-back SG classic adorned with the band’s signature combat boot logo.

Designed by the band themselves, Roger Miret speaks of the symbolism of the guitar saying “I think the guitar is perfect for the working class musician endorsed by the ultimate working class band! The boots symbol has always been of the same character. Hardcore has been our life. Our dedication to this movement has been our passion. Our boots stomped the way into NYHC history.”

Stigma will be available to purchase on April 24th and has a limited production of 500 guitars worldwide. As always, all ASG guitars can be ordered directly from their website at Artistseriesguitar.com.

Agnostic Front who most recently brought NYHC into another decade with their 2011 release, My Life My Way will be heading down under to Australia this May on the “New York United Tour” alongside fellow ASG roster-mates, Sick Of It All.
