Fat Wreck Chords has announced that it plans to reissue Banner Pilot's 2008 full-length Resignation Day on September 14. The re-release will feature new artwork, a resequenced track listing with two bonus tracks, and the whole shebang has been remastered. Bassist Nate Gangelhoff had this to say about the release:

"When we originally recorded Resignation Day back in 2007, issues came up during the recording that left us with little time for mixing. As a result, the record didn't sound too hot. This was kind of a drag 'cuz we didn't feel like we did the songs justice. But! Sometimes you get a second chance; sometimes you can take something that was subpar and make it right, like when that Jason Mraz guy covered Blitzkrieg Bop. In our case, we were able to get Jacques Wait (who we worked with on our last album Collapser) to take a look at the original tracks and take a stab at remixing them. What he came up with was awesome, sounding like a new album. Usually something billed as a 'remix' will cause you to say "Uh, I guess the guitars are…. warmer now?" or "Oh, that's cool that the ride cymbal has more zing in that one part now. Glad I bought this again", but in this case we're talking about a dramatic difference. Plus we added two more songs that are out of print, re-did the layout, and even changed around the sequencing. It's like a whole new experience, maaan. So if you checked out the album the first time around and didn't dig it, give it another chance. We think you'll like it. It's like that one fairy tale where the first bowl of porridge kind of sucks but the second one is perfect."

The band most recently released Collapser in 2009.

On the grey Vancouver streets of East Hastings and Main, Punknews interviewer Gen Handley had the opportunity to have a curb-side chat with Strike Anywhere frontman Thomas Barnett. In the midst of a tour with Bane, Touché Amoré and Lowtalker, Thomas took some precious pre-performance time to talk about the overall reaction to the band's most recent album, Iron Front, how his wife is as punk rock as he is and if the band is starting to slow down. Near the end of the interview, they also had an interesting conversation with one of locals and as always, Thomas was his friendly, thoughtful self.
