One of my buddies, Matty from A Loss For Words called into the show to discuss the band’s new album, the different elements that are on it, as well as good all fun
Rookie of the Year have released what music fans are constantly calling for but rarely receive: a return to an artist’s early work. While The Goodnight Moon Part II doesn’t necessarily break any new ground, it’s guaranteed to please fans and anyone else yearning for the pop rock sound of yesteryear.
Rookie Of The Year will independently release The Goodnight Moon: Part II on August 13th. You can check out the song “Save Me”, as well as the album artwork and tracklisting, by clicking “Read More”.
Matt Pond’s first official solo release The Lives Inside The Lines In Your Hands brings a lighthearted and soft-rock/alternative feel to the generally optimistic lyrics. The album is good overall, but the listener is left feeling unsatisfied with overly simple melodies and lackluster lyrics.
California’s kings of summery rock anthems have released their third album just in time to beat the inevitable heat, and with Eureka the band have once again proven their ability to craft a timeless record collection of fun-in-the-sun jams.
HERSHEY, Pa. – By now you’re probably aware that The Bamboozle Roadshow — the rambling rock circus featuring Good Charlotte, All Time Low, Simple Plan, Third Eye Blind and 3OH!3, among others — is basically one giant “bro down.”
Though ABC has canceled several of Adam Lambert’s appearances in the wake of his controversial American Music Awards performance last month, he appeared on the network Wednesday night as part of Barbara Walters’ “10 Most Fascinating People of 2009” special.

ChartAttack: Do you get teased mercilessly for being on our Sexiest Musicians cover [Oct. 2004]? Adam Gontier: Yeah, my band members are the worst for teasing me about the whole “sexy” thing. Most of my friends and family members laugh about it, but really, I know they’re all jealous. Why did it take so long for America to tweak to “I Hate Everything About You?” Don’t they hate everything? I think, for us, it was a good thing that “I Hate” took so long to catch on in America.
