HELLO EVERYONE AND WELCOME TO THE FALSE ALARM BLOG THING. SOMEONE SAID I SHOULD MAKE ONE SO I DID . IM GOING TO TRY TO PUT THE BAND BACK TOGETHER AGAIN IN 2009 EVEN WITHOUT DYLAN WHO PASSED AWAY IN 2005 BEFORE THE NEW RECORD WAS RELEASED . FALSE ALARM FIRST STARTED IN 1982 ,25 BACK BUT IT DIDN'T EVER DO ANYTHING AT ALL UNTILL AROUND 1996. IN THE 1980'S IT NEVER DID ANYTHING. EVEN FAT MIKE FROM NOFX WAS IN FALSE ALARM IN 1983. ARE FIRST RECORD "LEARNING IS IMPOSSIBLE" WAS RELEASED IN 1998 WITH ONE TRACK FEATURING FAT MIKE AND 6 NEW TRACKS. DURING THE LATE 90S FALSE ALARM PLAYED MANY SHOWS AT PLACES LIKE ALS BAR IN LOS ANGELES. BECAUSE OF DRUG AND ALCHOAL PROBLEMS WE DIDN'T DO MUCH MORE, AND FIGHTING. BY 1999 FALSE ALARM WAS AGAIN BROKEN UP. IN 2001 ME (BRENT) DYLAN AND ARE DRUMMER ART STARTED A NEW VERTION OF FALSE ALARM WITH DYLAN ON VOCALS. WE ADDED PAUL KOSTABI OF YOUTH GONE MAD AND DEE DEE RAMONES ART COLABORATER ON RYTHEM GUITAR. WE RECORDED A SECOND ALBUM. DURRING THE RECORDING OF ARE SECOND ALBUM I HAD THE GOOD FOURTUNE TO MEET CHEETAH CHROME OF THE DEAD BOYS AND I ASKED HIM TO PLAY ON THE CD HE LISTEND TO THE TAPES AND SAID HE WOULD DO IT IN 2002 WE RECORDED 6 SONGS FOR THE NEW CD WITH CHEETAH. PAUL AND DEE DEE RAMONE WHO I ALSO HAD THE GOOD FORTUNE TO MEET AND TALK WITH A FEW TIMES DID A GREAT PAINTING FOR THE CD COVER. I ALSO ASKED A FRIEND RICK WILDER OF THE MAU MAUS AND THE BERLIN BRATS TO SING A SONG ON THE CD WICH HE DID AND DE DE TROIT OF UXA SANG A SONG TOO. I HAD SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE LAW AND MY MENTAL HEALTH. AND IN 2005 DYLAN MAUNDER PASSED AWAY SO THE RECORD RELEASE WAS DELADE UNTILL 2006. IN 2006 "FUCK 'EM ALL WE'VE ALL READY (NOW) WON! WAS RELEASED ON FALSE ALARM RECORDS. IN 2009 THE RECORD WAS RELEASED IN EUROPE ON NICOTINE RECORDS. AND A DUBLE CD OF FALSE ALARMS FUCK EM ALL WE'VE ALL READY (NOW) WON! ALONG WITH YOUTH GONE MAD FEATURING DEE DEE RAMONE CD WAS RELEASED IN 2009. THERE HAS ALSO BEEN A CUPLE SPLIT 45 RECORDS WITH YOUTH GONE MAD AND YGM FEATURING JOEY RAMONE RELEASED. I AM CURENTLY WRITING A BOOK ON LA PUNK GANGS WITH MY FRIEND OF OVER 25 YEARS ADAM WILSON (NIGHT OWL) AND I PLAN TO RECORD MORE MUSIC IN THE FUTURE AT SOME POINT. ..........................................BRENT ALDEN

FALSE ALARM is our band from 1983, which never really got started back then to much because the members became invoved with the Los Angeles Punk Rock gangs, drugs and alcohol and bad people. We've been going on and off again for the last two decades. The latest record, 'FUCK 'EM ALL WE'VE ALL READY (NOW) WON!" features guest appearences by CHEETAH CHROME ( DEAD BOYS ), RICK WILDER ( BERLIN BRATS and MAU MAUS ) , DE DE TROIT ( UXA ). The album cover is by DEE DEE RAMONE and FALSE ALARM guitarist, PAUL KOSTABI - check out Paul's paintings on eBay. The previous record featured FAT MIKE (of NOFX) who played in the band in the 80's. We are really happy with the sound and feel of the new album. I'm wanna start working on some new stuff in a bit even though DYLAN MAUNDER has passed away. we dont have a singer now but im planning to record a song with paul and rick wilder and a new drummer cus art cant go to new york .so rick will sing on that one. that will be the first song for a new album. and maybe rick will sing at some live shows with us too... I'm ready to being working on some new stuff. eventualy not to far away will get something going .. in the meen time im working on writeing a book about the los angeles punk rock gangs of the early 80s and someother stuff cus thats all i can think of to work on now and one other thing ill have a web fanzine up soon with all my old interviews including my EL DUCE interview . wich was his last interview , wich im going to also release on CD cus its so funny but i wanna edit it first or find someone who knows how to do that or whatever cus he says so many horrible things about people .so thats whats going on besides trying to put the band back .. anyhow if anyones from hollywood and wants to jam on some songs let me know i alsow wanna make a side band maybe something like angry samoans kinda stuff and all. .......... The best place to find the new CD is at NICOTINERECORDS.COM NICOTINE RECORDS IS ARE EUROPAN LABLE..........late
