We hope you all had a very epic New Year’s Eve! But alas, we know it couldn’t possibly have been more epic than the new year’s celebration that went down at the House of Blues in Atlantic City. Why, you ask? WELL. If we could have chosen to be anywhere in the world last night, we would have chosen to spend it with Brand New. And that is EXACTLY what each person who held a Atlantic City HOB ticket got to do that night. Luckily, today we’re able to live vicariously through video footage (for more go here) and enjoy one of the most epic performances we could possibly dream of. Soco Amaretto Lime complete with confetti and balloons to count everyone down to the New Year? I mean seriously.

Even the concert gods wouldn’t be able to come up with a more amazing show. Your Favorite Weapon has been re-released on vinyl and CD with revamped cover art. 2012, you are such a tease, but as we blast YFW on vinyl, we really can’t complain too hard.
