"For New Found Glory, it’s not just a matter of having a chance banner year or fluke popular album that has kept the act at the forefront of the pop-rock scene.

"Two years ago, the quintet released their most successful album to date, the Gold-awarded (now with sales approaching Platinum) Sticks And Stones. That album was the follow-up to the band’s self-titled, major-label, debut - which sold in excess of 500,000, generating their first Gold record." - PureVolume

Latest news from an interview of NFG's guitarist Chad Gilbert....

So far, NFG have eight songs completely demoed and ready to roll. And when they return to Morning View next month (they've all been taking a few weeks off to recharge), they hope to bang out an additional eight songs and then get down to the business of choosing a producer for the album. But is Gilbert worried that the new, "mature" tunes might alienate some of NFG's young fanbase? Not really.
"Some of our most hard-core fans have heard some of the new songs, and they think it's the best stuff we've ever done," he said. "Even though the songs might be a bit more complex, they still have all the heart of our older music. So it's like the next logical progression."

Yellowcard

New Yellowcard Album "Lights and Sounds" is out.

Yellowcard Bio
Yellowcard....started out horrible....they played straight punk with songs that lasted around 2 minutes and there was some screaming....luckily though, they got a new singer and changed their music style to pop punk/punk rock/rock, so they have come a LONG way to be the great band that they are today. They have some really good old songs also, from like their 2nd and 3rd cds....some of the awesome songs are "Rocket", "Avondale", "Powder", and some other real good ones that I always jam out to. Yellowcard has evolved to be one of the best pop punk/rock bands out there, and they are working on their 5th album, which is supposed to be much different than there 2003 album "Ocean Avenue". Ocean Avenue was a kick ass cd, so I hope Yellowcard's new cd will be just as good if not better.....here's what an interview of Yellowcard by the Rolling Stones shows....

Southern California quintet Yellowcard are in the closing stages of recording their fifth LP, the follow-up to their 2003 breakthrough, Ocean Avenue. Frontman Ryan Key believes that, with this as-yet-untitled album, slated for release early next year, his band is growing up.

"It's so different from the record we put out before," says Key. "The songs have lost that adolescent bounciness -- they've come into adulthood a bit. I mean, there are more things to write about that matter as an adult than there were when we were 19, 20, writing Ocean Avenue."

Yellowcard's new album entitled "Lights and Sounds" hits stores on January 24, 2006. Their first single is also entitled "Lights and Sounds", which you can check out by clicking here

Buy There Best Album For Under $7

Not a bad 2nd cd by The Starting Line, but it definately isn't as awesome as their first cd "Say It Like You Mean It"....songs like "Up & Go", "Best of Me", "Left Envy Coast", and the rest of their great songs that I can't remember right now - The Starting Line's whole first cd is all great songs. I don't think it would have been possible for The Starting Line to come out with a better cd than "Say It Like You Mean It," but their second cd "Based On a True Story" is still great. The good songs off that cd in my opinion are #2, #3, #4, #6, #7, #11, & #13, with #13 being my favorite. The Starting Line's music and definately their lyrics have changed. I would love to see a third cd come out very soon that is like there 1st cd and a little bit like their second cd, and then they will jam hard. They are an unreal band though, and their 1st cd will always be among my top 5 best cd's.

Two New Bands Evolve From Blink 182

When will their debut albums be released?

Plus-44 : Album is halfway done and the album is expected to be released in October.

Angels & Airwaves : Album hits stores May 23. COUNTDOWN - ALBUM RELEASED (SIMPLY UNREAL...MY FAV CD RIGHT NOW)


Plus-44 didn't just start up overnight. We could all tell that Blink was slowly falling apart, and they knew it, too. Mark and Travis thought up this project while Blink was on tour in the UK. But how did they come up with Plus-44? The code number used to dial into the UK : +44

Tom Delonge, front man of Blink 182 and Boxcar Racer made the announcement of his new band Angels and Airwaves on the AbsolutePunk forums. His post was met with scepticism, but was later confirmed."Hello everybody, this is a first for me, but I couldn't wait any longer. I have a new band called "Angels and Airwaves" and it is the most amazing music I have ever made by a long shot. You all must know, I didn't want Blink to go on hiatus, but it had to....you all will learn why...soon, but I swear to god, I am two songs from finishing the best fucking album anybody has heard in 20 years. In the next couple of weeks, you will all hear about the new band as well as the movie that is being made to tell the story of the album. But no matter what is said, or talked about, no matter what rumors are started, this is the best music made in decades....It is so much more powerful, emotional and melodic than Box Car and Blink put together, that I am currently shitting my pants, and your pants as well....until you hear more, all I can say is hold on, and prepare - Tom. "I love my fans, and I promise I will not let you down, the music that we all grew to charish that was made, not only will continue, but it will be much, much better...."

Punk O Matic, Blog Updating

Punk O Matic....greatest game ever....not even jokin

You can make your own punk music by creating different sounds on the drums, bass guitar, and electric guitar. I've been playing this game and updating this blog for hours upon hours the last couple days. I'm going to make the best music on this game possible, and then I'll let you all hear it someday. I will also be continuously looking for new bands and updating, and someday I hope that my website will be well-known and loved by all people who enjoy this type of music. I just need a little support. -Thanks to all of you that support me.- ~Kdub~

Unsigned Bands

theres some great bands out there that are for some reason still unsigned by a label....markis williams knows just what im talking about....markis williams is the biggest Saosin fan i know and it pisses him off hardcore that Saosin doesnt have a label because they are a great band

another good band thats unsigned(at least im guessing they are unsigned because their songs sound like they are recorded in a garage not a studio) is Shore Road LI....click them under Links and check em out (Rescue is a great one)

these 2 bands may not sound good in ur opinion, but u would be surprised how much better music sounds with a label and studio recordings....both these bands should easily have a label by now....whats the deal?

if theres any more great bands that are for some reason still unsigned, post them here.
