The end of the road for Scarrots

This time, we bring you some sad news. Funtime records artist Scarrots have decided to put an end to their long history as a band! They have been part of the Belgian punkrock/indiescene for more then 10 years and rocked almost every possible club in Belgium, including performances at festivals like Pukkelpop, Suikerrock and many more. Originally started as a ska/skapunkband, Scarrots soon outgrew that label to become an indierockband that still had the punkrock spirit and energy and succeeded in winning a lot of hearts with their debut album 'piece of sunshine' and their last album 'the sound of being lost' (released on funtime in 2007). Some months ago, their drummer decided to leave the band (their 4th drummer quitting the band !) and somehow the band didn't find the energy anymore to start all over once again. So this is it for Scarrots!

Scrap that, start over

Panic! At The Disco have unveiled more details about their second album which is due out next March. Guitarist Ryan Ross said that the follow-up to their 2005 debut, ‘A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out,’ will draw more from the band’s live sound than their previous album.

"We just wanted the record to sound like four people playing a song," Ross told Billboard. "A lot of the songs are definitely more geared toward playing live; we didn't think about that on the last record."

Ross, who also writes the band’s lyrics, said that the band have been “working backwards” from their emo tag and that the ambitious album will feature string sections, harmonica and slide guitar.

"When I started playing music, all I was hearing was whatever was on the radio," he said. "I'm 21 now, so a lot of my musical tastes have changed."

The album has seen the band re-unite with producer Rob Mathes, who worked with them on their cover for Tim Burton’s 2007 movie ‘This Is Halloween.’

Lyrically the as-yet-untitled record draws from the band’s experiences since they were signed, Ross says.

The fists cancel tour, delay album ...

Due to a delay in the recording process 36 Crazyfists have been forced to push back the release of their upcoming Ferret Music debut, The Tide and Its Takers. The album which was originally slated for a March 3rd release is now slated to drop on April 28th. The album will still be produced by the band’s guitarist Steve Holt and mixed by Andy Sneap.

Because of the setbacks in recording the band are also, regrettably, going to have to cancel their UK and European tour plans. The band was scheduled to play with Bullet For My Valentine overseas and is disappointed to say that they will not be partaking in the tour.

Which makes them Straylight Drop?

Straylight Run have been dropped from Universal Republic. A message from Shaun reads as follows:

So I'm not sure how much I'm supposed to say about this... Today I found out we were officially dropped from Universal Republic. I can't say I'm dissappointed though.

We did everything in our power to avoid the horrible situation we were put into, but I guess that wasn't enough. I guess the label is kind of in shambles. I mean, if you feel like the man that brought you The Killers and Fall Out Boy is expendable; what the hell are we?

Whatever... most people in the "record industry" are shitheads, and don't have a clue what they're doing. That is the real resaon why records aren't selling anymore. I only know that my band is going to keep on keepin' on (as I like to say) and that we are already working on some badass new music. I feel like I want to fight for this more than ever before.

Yours truly,

Pennywise help breaking new frontiers ...

MySpace is joining the search for a new music industry business model by enlisting the help of advertising.

Next March, fans of punk band Pennywise can go to stores to buy the group's ninth album. Or they can go to the MySpace profile of Textango, a mobile music distributor, and add it as a friend, which will allow them to download the entire album for free.

The promotion is the first test by MySpace of whether it can marry its enormous reach, fledgling record label it began two years ago and roster of advertiser relationships to create an alternative for bands to the current distribution model, which nearly all participants agree is faltering.

"This happens in a time when the record industry has such a black eye," said Josh Brooks, VP of marketing at MySpace, owned by News Corp. "It's a nice opportunity and a way to get your music out there."

Pennywise typically sells between 60,000 and 100,000 albums, Brooks said, and MySpace expects at least that many will take up the free offer and add Textango as a friend.

Yet the expected onslaught of friends was not a primary attraction of the partnership, Textango CEO Shawn Dornan said, but rather the opportunity to associate with MySpace and a new kind of music delivery.

"The overarching spirit is its breaking new barriers, doing new models and going against the status quo, which are all things we stand for," he said.

Today is probably the worst day ever. Its with our deepest regrets that we have to write this. Casey Calvert passed away in his sleep last night. We found out this afternoon before sound-check. We've spent the entire day trying to come to grips with this and figure out as much as possible. At this time we're not sure what exactly happened. Just last night he was joking around with everyone before he went to bed. We can say with absolute certainty that he was not doing anything illegal. Please, out of respect to Casey and his family, don't contribute or succumb to any gossip you may hear. We don't want his memory to be tainted in the least. Casey was our best friend. He was quirky and awesome and there will truly be no others like him! His loss is unexplainable. As soon as we know more we will let you know.

Hell for the copters!

After nearly thirteen years as The Hellacopters we're now sad to tell you that we are breaking up. The reasons behind this very difficult decision are many and too personal to go into here. Playing in a rock and roll band isn't always a walk in the park, but thanks to all of you who rocked out with us at sweaty clubs, rainy festivals or at home by the stereo throughout the years, it's been a fantastic trip. We'll never forget your support. We recently finished mixing our seventh and last studio album and it'll be released early next year, according to initial plans. We feel like we wanna say one last goodbye to you and throw in the towel with a bang, so we're aiming to do a farewell tour through Europe and Scandinavia sometime in the spring. So you're not getting rid of us just yet.

There are many reasons why we've decided to move on: Financial strain, family obligations, etc. but we really just felt it was time. Our love for each other and our music has not diminished. It will always be there and I have no doubt that we could continue to write balls to the wall music. Now it's just time for change.

So after months of red tape, we've been released from our contract and are frankly relieved. We're going to start getting a b-sides record together and we're looking to have it out THIS YEAR! (Nov. 27 is the likely date)

Gonna have a(nother) teenage riot ...

Kris Roe posted this in his Blog:

"We are actually writing at the moment. It is sometimes hard to find inspiration in the same things that may have inspired you when you were alot younger.. or put yourself in the same place where you were then but musically I will always have a love in my heart for those bands that inspired me to start writing songs.... Jawbreaker, Samiam, The Replacements, Descendents... I very much enjoy the energy of playing music along those lines. Even though artistically I may have changed personally. I do think The Ataris next record will sort of pick up where "end is forever" and "Blue Skies..." left off. After making a record such as "Welcome the Night" A record which I feel was very bold and honest artistically, and very much coming from the most truthful places in my heart and all that I was going through at the time. I feel that today where I am at is sort of coming around full circle and just having fun again and being newly inspired by the art that made me discover music in the first place. So yeah, I am excited for recording again. I think you will dig the songs."

A message from + 44

today is august 14th. right now we are supposed to be on a flight to start a european tour which, as was announced last week, has been cancelled. canceling the tour was not an easy decision, not something we wanted to do, and not something that we take lightly. we didn’t cancel our first european tour last winter even when travis was playing every single show with a broken arm, and we didn’t cancel the next european tour after travis was ordered home by his doctors. touring and playing shows is the foundation of +44. sorry to anyone who had tickets to the shows this month. we were absolutely stoked to be headed over for a third tour, but this time it just wasn’t possible.

now we are starting to write the next record. we’ve got a bunch of ideas; a studio full of instruments, microphones, and effects; and a soundboard from the 1970’s. we’re excited to start putting together a new album.

PenKnifeLoveLife is dead! Long live religion.

So far from being keen! Basically we're no longer a band, what happened was as im sure alot of you already knew, Ross left to go live in america last year in november, if my not so reliable memory serves me correctly, and then had to return because one can only stay in america for 3 months without a visa or gaining citizenship. So he came back and he said he would rejoin the band. We didnt have much luck finding a new singer so we agreed to him rejoining. We went on tour had a great time and we thought everything was moving in the right direction, until - and this is no exaggeration or joke - Ross went to church one sunday with a friend and when driving back he began to cry and said God told him he wanted him in LA and would have to quit penknifelovelife ect. I personally think thats the most ridiculous and hilarious thing i've ever heard, im sure you'll all make your own minds up. The disapointing thing about all of this is that i feel he used us for the few months he rejoined and effectively lied to us for the entirety of his rejoining. What's more disturbing is that he is using his 'faith' as an excuse and is now planning to make money out of it. I missed the part where being Christian was a fashion statement, but i ate 100 tats and what do i know?

Im sure the remaining non-believers in this band will carry on creating music either together or with other bands so please be sure to check whatever happens out.
Also thank you to anyone who supported this band in anyway, coming to shows buying a shirt, letting us stay at your house and all the friends we made. It was fun!

Joey takes last train, has a thing with dead penguins!

Lagwagon frontman Joey Cape has posted a new track on his personal myspace page.

I just finished mixing this song. I wanted to post something before I left for tour with The Gimme Gimmes tomorrow. The song is called "This Is The Last Train". O.K., So... This version was originally a demo. I later recorded it with another band. The band has no name. Actually, the band has about 20 names. We just can't decide which one isn't bad.

For now, I will refer to that band as "Dead Penguin", my favorite title in the running. Dead Penguin's version of the song is a rock version. I think it sounds like "Pinkerton" era Weezer. Anyway, I recorded an entire record with Dead Penguin in December 2006. That band is made up of 4 of my oldest friends and of course myself.

The full album should be complete by September. There is no label and no plans. I know what you're thinking. Isn't he in enough bands already? Yes I am. Dead Penguin was just a project purely for fun. I can't wait for people to hear that record. It's raw, unpolished and nothing like anything I've done.

Abandon ship, men, woman and children first!

Men, Women and Children have parted ways with Warner/Reprise Records.

Men women & children would like to proudly proclaim our freedom from our now former home at warner/reprise records. We are free to explore
the best options for the future of the band. Our forthcoming album will NOT be affiliated with WBR nor will it suffer from the poor distribution our debut endured. We are very lucky for this freedom to explore the "right"
options for us since most contractually obligated bands can end up crippled by a lack of both passion and resources. We have been hoping for this for quite some time now and for it to finally be the reality of our situation is both liberating and motivating. Hopefully now with this change of events we can move swiftly into the studio and deliver you our proudest work yet.

I will be sending one band member home early tomorrow morning, and the rest of us will follow on monday. There's one phone call no one on tour wants to receive, and we got that call last night. We couldn't predict it. These things happen. It's unfortunate, and we wish circumstances were different. We promise to do what we can to make up these shows to everyone, especially the kids. Unfortunately, these are circumstances we can not help, or predict. We would love to power through and finish these dates, but family comes first, and we can't lose sight of the obligations back home. Again we apologize for this, but we have no choice but to go home immediately. Thank for everything and hopefully we'll see all of you later this year.

so if you come to a show, cove will be at the merch booth after we play, and if you want to help out, we can send some post cards home to our families in the states.

Dominic Davi gets the sack!

Love Equals Death have parted ways with bassist Dominic Davi (ex-Tsunami Bomb) who is charged with the rape of a Virginia woman. Band statement reads like follows ...

Some of you may or may not know that Love Equals Death was dealt quite a blow about three weeks ago when we had found out that our bass player was facing serious charges. Well, we would like to make it perfectly clear here at camp LED that we do not in any way condone any such behavior related to these charges. We, however are not a judge or a jury and don't want to be one any time soon. We are however a band that really just wants to continue playing music. We know that these times have been severely trying for Dominic(bass player in question) and the accuser. We hope for the best outcome for all parties. However, Dominic will no longer be playing music or working on behalf of Love Equals Death. This matter that he faces requires all of his attention right now and we (Tonio, Duffs and myself) wish him well as I know all of you do. I personally know that his love for music will always keep him in the scene and i'm sure those who support him will be seeing him around very soon.

Fandangle album due out in September ?

In a recent Myspace Blog, Fandangle explain the delay on the release of their new album ...

When we were in LA recording it we didn't have enough time to finish all of the brass harmonies and vocal harmonies and there were still things that we wanted to change in terms of arrangements and so forth. So we thought that it would be ok and we could finish it at the end of february, but then tour came along really quick and spent a month and a half around the UK again. The idea is to spend a large chunk of April and May in the studio re-recording some stuff and mixing it. Then it has to be sent back to LA to have the entire cd mastered. We are really thinking that it will be released in September in time for our 3 month UK party tour which consists us playing with bands such as The Toasters, Mr Shiraz, Freefall Felix, etc.

Panic! at the concept album plans

A recent interview with MTV revealed Panic! at the Disco's plasn to come out with a concept album of sorts. The band is currently staying in Nevada writing songs and plan to recruit producer Rob Mathes (Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack).

We all got together and created this — I guess you could call it a concept — that we all wrote and we were all involved with and pretty interested in. Most people who listen to our music can't relate to what it's like to tour and play shows and live on the road. That's the last thing we want to write about, because we do it all the time anyway. It's kind of a love story. It's a timeless age of romantic, poetic fantasies.
