All Time Low Music Video

One of the best pop punk bands up there. With a sound that screams Kiss Radio Play and MTV. With that being said I don't know why they put out such a low quality music video.

ACE ENDERS'S NEW PROJECT KINGS FOR QUEENS ON TOUR WITH STEEL TRAIN

What happened to "I Can Make A Mess"? I guess Ace killed that project. I'm still sad that the Early November called it quits but it will be good to see Ace out there touring.


Ace Enders, best known as the lead singer of New Jersey rockers The Early November will unveil his new project, KING FOR QUEENS on tour this fall.

The new group came about when musicians Ashley Dudek, Matt Moffo, Timmy Passarella came to Enders’s studio Pink Space Recording. to record They clicked instantly and decided to collaborate and KING FOR QUEENS was born.

Enders is excited to perform with this new project and “can’t wait for people to hear the new music.” He describes the sound as “good time indie pop” with the biggest difference between The Early November and KING FOR QUEENS being Enders sharing vocals with Dudek. “It’s a nice balance back and forth between male and female vocals that really make the songs come alive,” he says.

KING FOR QUEENS will tour this fall with Steel Train and Socratic. The band will showcase brand new material, songs from Enders’s solo effort I Can Make A Mess Like Nobody’s Business, and songs from The Early November.

Two new songs from KING FOR QUEENS will be available as a free download on Myspace.com/KingsForQueensMusic beginning mid-October. KING FOR QUEENS will release a full-length album early Spring 2008.

KINGS FOR QUEENS is Ace Enders (vocals, guitar), Ashley Dudek (vocals), Matt Moffo (piano), and Timmy Passarella (guitar).

Coheed & Cambria strike back with No World For Tomorrow


After selling more than one million copies worldwide of their last album, Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness, New York’s Coheed & Cambria strike back with No World For Tomorrow on October 23rd.

The latest offering is the band's most personal document yet, with various emotionally charged events of the last year dictating the direction of the writing process. In addition, the band recruited rock powerhouse Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Rush, Stone Sour, Velvet Revolver, Marilyn Manson) to produce the record while rock guru Rick Rubin played a role as the band’s A&R. The result is the most brilliant culmination of Coheed and Cambria's musical and literary vision to date. The first single, “The Running Free”, is steadily climbing the charts on modern rock radio and on iTunes.

Catch the band, with new drummer Chris Pennie (Dillinger Escape Plan), on tour starting October 29th with support from Clutch and Fall Of Troy.

Nick Drake Box Set Fruit Tree to be released November 6th


On November 6, 2007, UME/Fontana will release an updated version of the legendary Nick Drake box set Fruit Tree. Originally released in 1979, Fruit Tree has been out of print for seven years. In addition to all three of Nick Drake’s classic studio albums - Five Leaves Left, Bryter Layter and Pink Moon, this one time only, limited edition pressing (8,000 copies) of Fruit Tree includes, on DVD for the first time, the Nick Drake biographical film “A Skin Too Few”, and a new 108-page book. The book includes comprehensive lyric sheets, exclusive interviews with Nick’s producer Joe Boyd and engineer John Wood who discuss each song Nick recorded under their auspices, a song-by-song musical breakdown and history by Robin Frederick and the original sleevenotes by Arthur Lubow. The sleeves feature replicas of the original Fruit Tree artwork.

Additionally, a limited quantity of the set (2,000 units) will be available on premium vinyl. This vinyl set, which includes the DVD and book, is also a one-time run only. The upgraded reissue gives fans old and new the opportunity to buy Nick’s three classic studio albums in one set at a decent price and will be a welcome addition for collectors.

The Fruit Tree release will be marked by two major Nick Drake events in San Francisco, and one in Los Angeles in early October:
