It wasn’t hard convincing bands to record songs for the Ted Bond Benefit Comp. Albert Padilla, the singer for Reliance, drove down from Phoenix to Anaheim to see Craig’s Brother open up for Slick Shoes, and grabbed this picture with Ted. Two great singer/guitar players here. Good times.

After getting the green light from Ted and later Adam, I reached out to Sef Idle to see if he would like to participate in the Ted Bond Benefit Comp. And what came back was "let's do this together". He would not only provide a song, but also arrange for four artists from his Simpul Records to record tracks in his studio Simpul Studio. He has gone on to master the album, and has been the primary contact for about half of the artists (including Tobin from 6'10", Zippy Josh and the Rag Tag Band, Seth Anderson and many others). Here is a photo of Sef with Craig's Brother taken after they played a show together in Santa Cruz. Album preorder link is below.

When I first learned of Ted's diagnosis, I knew that TPR had to do something to help. Most benefit comps take many months to pull together because bands need time to write, record and mix their songs. Because there is an immediate need, we decided to go with acoustic songs that most people could record at home or practice space. TPR reached out first to bandmate Adam Nigh to gauge his interest, and he provided the ideal song to honor Ted and their friendship.

In Adam's words: "The song is called Your Name Is Jonas because Ted's first name is actually Jonas, and because, you know, Weezer. I wrote it as an ode to Ted in 2001 when Too Bad Eugene was getting ready to record Moonlighting. It didn't make that album, but I've always wanted to use it so when they asked me about this comp it seemed perfect. It still encapsulates how I feel about the man as a songwriter, as a man, and as a friend. Please contribute if you're able"

Our friend Ted Bond, lead singer for Craig's Brother, has been diagnosed with a form of lymphoma. Ted helps support his wife and three children as a musician, children’s math tutor, real estate agent and associate pastor at a small church, which are not the types of jobs that provide significant medical benefits. In order to support him, Simpul Records and Thumper Punk Records have teamed up to release the Ted Bond Benefit Compilation, an acoustic album featuring original new songs from 28 artists to raise money for Ted’s medical expenses.

The album is available for digital pre-orders now, which includes an immediate download of “Your Name is Jonas” from Adam Nigh of Craig’s Brother and Too Bad Eugene. The full album will be available everywhere on May 2, 2025.

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Dispraised Unleashes Hardcore Punk Fury with New Album "Time"

Hardcore punk outfit Dispraised returns with a relentless new album, Time, released as a free download via Thumper Punk Records. The band’s latest effort is an unfiltered battle cry against societal decay, political manipulation, and the erosion of personal conviction, all delivered with their signature raw intensity and unapologetic personal faith. Time is an incendiary collection of songs that cut through the noise with unrelenting speed, crushing riffs, and lyrics that challenge, provoke, and inspire. Dispraised pulls no punches, tackling themes of personal faith, systemic corruption, and the struggle for truth in an era of deception.

With members from South Africa and the United States, Dispraised brings a unique brand of aggression over 9 new tracks. Time will be available on CD, all commercial digital platforms, and as limited edition 10” vinyl. Details at: https://linktr.ee/Dispraised

Available as a free download:

OFFICIAL: We are thrilled to release the first single "Unashamed and Proud" from the new album "Time" from Dispraised, which releases April 3. Available for streaming or free download from the TPR bandcamp.

Lyrics: I’ll never lie I won’t back down from what you did for me
No matter the outcome I’ll stand my ground it’s the only way to be
Won't apologize for who I am or what my eyes have seen
Unashamed and proud!

Products of our convictions a being with conscience choice
My faith in Christ the reason why I choose to lift my voice
Never scared of what they may think I say it with my chest
Stand for what i believe and represent my best
We all live for something for me he’s the reason why
I’d rather die than deny

I’ll never lie I won’t back down from what you did for me
No matter the outcome I’ll stand my ground it’s the only way to be
Won't apologize for who I am or what my eyes have seen
Unashamed and proud!

Speak out against evil men and who they represent
Tyranny and power trips from those in government
Crooked cops and pulpit crooks that terrorize our lives
Stolen scenes of gaslit dreams and hollow hearted cries
This world of sin a hopeless place with no happy end in sight
But knowing you gives me hope helps me sleep at night.
My only hope My savior the redeemer of my soul
Unashamed and proud

The next few weeks for are going to be legendary. Dispraised’s nine song blockbuster Time, the new album from Headnoise from Dr. Strange Records, and a crazy fun concept “live” album from ChipSeal (don’t sleep on that cuz it’s great). Happy to play a small part.

What started out as a joke to make one of our studio songs sound as live as possible turned into a full album undertaking. The real Timbuktu Arena is an 8x8 ...
