New albums from Haste the Day and Maylene & the Sons of Disaster are both in stores today, as is a stellar DVD from Mutemath called Flesh And Bones - Electric Fun containing a professionally-shot live concert as well as extra goodies. I'm buying it tomorrow, thank you very much.
August Burns Red(Pennsylvania, Solid State Records) are here in Ottawa tomorrow night, March 21st at Maverick's downtown with openers Chasing Victory and more - as well, the band may well play some new material off their freshly-tracked album Messengers, due out in June. C'mon out!
It was funny, even though it wasn't nice: if rumour is true, four-fifths of Terminal abruptly left the band mid-tour last year, and three of those four dudes have surfaced in a new band(along with a guy who usd to play with Between the Buried and Me) called Oh, Sleeper. This is not to be confused with The Sleeping from Long Island, who are purely amazing. [TVU]
New Found Glory, in the wake of a disappointing(one man's opinion!) new album, have left their longtime label home at Geffen Records. Maybe they'll sign with Abacus Recordings. Everyone else is. [Decoy]
Underoath will headline the Dirty South Tour(it was only a matter of time before a tour was called that) with openers Norma Jean and the Maylene fellas later this year. Dates to be announced shortly.
One of Solid State's lowest-profile bands, Becoming the Archetype, will release their second album The Physics of Fire May 8th.
Oh, nooooooo, I was just listening to Power In Numbers this afternoon: the masterful Jurassic 5, perhaps the best rap crew in Los Angeles, have decided to break up due to that old cliche of "creative differences." This truly sucks.
This kid sings Atreyu songs - in his Philadelphia-area front yard. Rock on, kid. Rock on.
Here they go again, on their own: Whitesnake(WHITESNAKE!!) will release a new album called Good To Be Bad on SPV Records this fall. Unbelievable.
