Putney commented:
“To be honest I was initially torn about doing this. The distaste and rage I have for our systemic issues in this country are more palpable than they ever have been. But I am NOT the voice of the oppressed, and I would never pretend to be.
What I can do is sit down with my fellow artists, friends, peers, and heroes alike and start a conversation about what we CAN do to support institutions for positive change, because something HAS to change. And the money that will roll in from this event will go to the experts. The ACLU. The Civil Rights organization that has fought for the purest form of free speech, justice, and equality for ONE HUNDRED YEARS (let one hundred years sink in for a second). The work that they are heavily involved in today aims to tackle these systemic issues.
The artists who will appear on this livestream come from different corners of life, different upbringings, different tax brackets. Naturally, some people are more comfortable expressing their opinions and beliefs to the public than others. I ask that you do not expect fire and brimstone from everyone, and do not scorn those who’d like to have a lighthearted conversation about music. The act of participating and donating sought after items to a worthy charity should be enough for you to understand their intentions.
This raffle will be one for the books. Extremely rare items, tons of merch, test presses and limited vinyl, music gear, it goes on and on. A lot of those involved are bringing something special and I truly thank them for parting with sacred items.
The link is live to start donating now. We will be announcing more details and giveaways soon.
If you’d like to participate on any level just message me.
Go big or go home.”

Senses Fail To Begin Recording New Album
Senses Fail will be hitting the studio later this month to begin the recording process for their new album. The band confirmed the news on Twitter:
Senses Fail To Release Re-Recorded Version Of “From The Depths Of Dreams” In September, Share New Video For “Bastard Son”
Senses Fail will be releasing a re-recorded version of their debut EP “From The Depths Of Dreams” on September 6. You can find a new video for the updated version of “Bastard Son” off the effort below:
Buddy Nielsen commented:
“Seventeen years ago we recorded the songs that make up ‘From The Depths Of Dreams‘. It was the spark that started a journey that is still unfolding. We never thought that we’d go anyway, we just wanted to make it out of the basement. We were just a couple of teenagers from NJ trying to write songs to make us feel alive and play in the local scene.
Our aspirations were minimal at best but our results were extraordinary. This re-recording is not to replace what was but to add to the legacy of the songs and show them in a modern light. We haven’t played a lot of these songs for our fans and this release gives us the opportunity to highlight an era of Senses Fail that many of our fans didn’t get a chance to see.”
It’s worth noting that this version of the EP was recorded after the group previously said they were planning on re-releasing older material with vulgar words taken out. As previously reported, the band will also be performing it in full on their fall tour.
Senses Fail To Perform “From The Depths Of Dreams” In Full On Fall U.S. Tour
Senses Fail will be performing “From The Depths Of Dreams” in full on a fall U.S. tour. Hot Mulligan and Yours Truly will open. Buddy Nielsen commented:
“We are very excited to bring a piece of Senses Fail history back and share it with our fans. Our very first EP was the birth of SF and to have a chance to update the sound and play in full was an opportunity we jumped at. We will be playing the EP as well as a greatest hits and rarities set and acoustic songs. We really want our fans to hear some songs that they haven’t heard in years or ever.”
