When Avril Lavigne released album No. 2 in 2004, the spunky teen pop star announced to the world that she was growing up. Gone were the baggy pants and skater-chick image that first earned Lavigne the media-christened nickname of “the anti-Britney.” On that year’s “Under My Skin,” punky anthems like “Sk8er Boi” were replaced largely with grammatically correct, midtempo teen-angst rockers. The album was released a few months shy of Lavigne’s 20th birthday, and the black-and-white Goth imagery made it clear that Lavigne was dealing with some intense late-teen issues. Today, Lavigne is done with all that. On April 17,… Read more »
Cartel are not the sort of guys you’d expect to catch on an episode of MTV’s “Cribs.” For one, they all live under the same ancient roof: a home guitarist Nic Hudson inherited from his grandmother last year. They don’t rock the bling, nor do they drive fancy automobiles. In fact, up until the show’s taping, the band had just a ramshackle touring van and drummer Kevin Sanders’ Volkswagen Golf to get them from point A to point B. But that didn’t stop Cartel from opening their doors to the “Cribs” cameras; the band will be featured on an upcoming… Read more »
Good Charlotte’s Madden brothers are hard to please. Even though hits like “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” and “Girls and Boys” helped their last album, The Young and the Hopeless, sell more than 2.8 million copies, the Madden brothers say the tunes just weren’t good enough for them. “Me and Benji are never satisfied with the songs we write,” Joel admitted. “Truthfully, we’ve never loved anything we’ve written so far. We’re always chasing the song that one day we’ll really love.” The Maddens and their bandmates are currently pursuing pop-punk’s perfect wave in a Los Angeles studio, where they’re… Read more »
Avril Lavigne and Simple Plan are a pop-punk match made in heaven, and they just dropped their new collab, “Young & Dumb.” Here, the iconic artists recount their early starts in the biz as young Canadians with big dreams. “This is such a full-circle moment. Not only did Simple Plan tour with me last year on the Greatest Hits Tour, but we also toured together in 2003 on my very first arena tour,” Lavigne says. She adds, “We were so young—just a bunch of kids from small towns in Canada who had just released our debut albums. We connected instantly… Read more »
