Lostprophets are this weeks tip

Tuesday, January 31st, 2006

If you haven’t got into the Lostprophets yet, you need to. Not right away of course, finish reading Music Steak but as soon as you’re done then go do it :p.

Top songs…

  • We Still Kill The Old Way
  • Our Broken Hearts
  • Shinobi Vs. Dragon Ninja

Though I was of course aware of them I didn’t really get into them until I was out shopping on Friday and heard these great lyrics. As I do (I hope other people do it too to make me less wierd) I scribbed down some of the lyrics down onto my phone and Googled them eventually leading me to We Still Kill The Old Way. Interesting story huh? ;).

Hilary Duff’s first concert cancellation

Sunday, January 29th, 2006

Hilary Duff has cancelled a concert for the first time in her career.

Last night’s concert at St. John’s was cancelled by the promoters just ten hours before it was scheduled to begin because adverse weather conditions delayed a ferry carrying equipment being shipped from New Jersey.

In a press release Duff said “I’m extremely disappointed that we were not able to perform this tour for my fans in Newfoundland. This is the first show we ever had to cancel, but I’m looking forward to performing in St. John’s in the future.”

The Arctic Monkeys have topped the UK charts with their single “When The Sun Goes Down.” They beat off Will Young, Shayne Ward and no doubt millions of other reality TV products to produce a top 40 chart that actually has something good at the top ;).

Two bands to check out

Thursday, January 12th, 2006

I need to make some recommendations. First of all, From First to Last. You might have already heard of them as they are signed to Epitaph Records and I believe they are touring with Fall Out Boy, All American Rejects and Hawthorne Heights (all of which totally rock and you should check out if you haven’t done so already). You can stream some of their stuff here.

Secondly, The GetAway Drive. I’m not sure about this hole no space between get and away but still, it’s their decision I guess. You can stream some of their stuff here. Stay Awake is a bit hmm but the rest of the stuff is really good.
