Brand New Frontman Hints at Band’s End

image

Could the Brand New reunion be over just as fast as it began? If we’re going to take what frontman Jesse Lacey said during a recent show seriously, which we might have to because of the emotion behind the speech, then yes, maybe the end for the band is near.

During their final tour of 2015 at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on Sunday (Oct. 11), Lacey took to the microphone to give a heartfelt speech to the audience before launching into “Play Crack the Sky.” In the speech, which sources recorded video of, he talks about how it might be the end of the group. But, before jumping to conclusions, it might be good to point out that he says that the group “can’t do this forever,” but nothing in his speech confirms that the band are disbanding after the next record.

“This [is] the last show we’ll play for a while. Things will be different the next time we play. I’ll have a brand new daughter! The next time we play, we’ll have a brand new album for you. This won’t last much longer, we can’t do this forever.”

Before speaking about their inevitable end, Lacey shed a few tears when speaking about his band mates Garrett Tierney, Vincent Accardi, and Brian Lane while also revealing his inner demons of not being enough.

“Being in a room like this is really special. Personally, I don’t feel adequate, or worth it, playing on this stage, but I know that Garrett, and Vinnie, and Brian are absolutely worth it.”

Watch two videos taken from the show below and make your own judgement on the matter.

Watch the Foo Fighters Hit the Stage for Fourth of July

Injury be damned, at least that was the message Dave Grohl was sending out on the first stop of the Foo Fighters’ North American tour which kicked off on Saturday (July 4) in Washington D.C. in celebration of not only the nation, but also the 20th anniversary of the band’s self-titled, debut record.

Up until last week, the status of the tour was still unknown since Grohl’s infamous fall in Sweden. Fans were beginning to speculate that a cancellation was set to happen, but lo and behold, being the true rock stars that they are, the band decided to go forward with the three-month long tour which will wrap up in early October.

Thanks to several YouTube users, videos from the kick-off show/Fourth of July blow out was uploaded online. Not only do we see the group perform some of their biggest songs, we were also given a look at the new stage set up for the band which includes a rock and roll version of the Game of Thrones Iron Throne for Grohl to sit on during the shows.

Kind of bad-ass.

Instead of playing off the severe injury, Grohl decided to address it directly before beginning on “Big Me.” In his speech to the audience, he explained how it all happened on a “beautiful night like tonight in a stadium full of people” and how he “fell off the fucking stage.” He even played the footage of the fall on the big screen behind the band as he continued to ask the crowd if they saw the video on YouTube.

It’s nice to know that he’s got such a good sense of humor about it because he even replayed it again.

Check out the videos from the show below, but try to ignore the annoying ass commentary on the videos.

Thrice’s big reunion is supposed to take place this upcoming weekend, but the band decided to give fans from their home state of California a little something just in case they couldn’t make it all the way to New Jersey.

Man Overboard Release Trio of Videos for New Songs

image

It was just yesterday that Man Overboard revealed they would be releasing a new album titled Heavy Love this Summer.

Not even 24 hours after they unveiled the official announcement by using the famous last scene of The Sopranos, the band have released not one, but three music videos for three tracks off of the impending release.

The videos, which can be seen below, are for the following three songs: “Splinter,” “Now That You’re Home,” and “Borderline.”

The three new tracks will join previously released song, “She’s in Pictures” on Heavy Love due out on June 30 through Rise Records. Pre-orders for the new album are currently available on the band’s website.

In support of the new record, the New Jersey band will be hitting the road this Summer as one of many (and we mean many) bands joining the 2015 Vans Warped Tour.

Weezer Unveil “My Mystery” Clip

weezer

Weezer have released another clip, the second teaser this week from the group to excited fans. This new clip features a brand new track titled “My Mystery.”

Judging by their previous clips, this new song will no doubt be featured on the group’s upcoming new album, Everything Will Be Alright in the End. Including this new clip, Weezer have officially release eleven clips, all in promotion (or teasing) for the upcoming record.

Watch the creepy black and white video.

Earlier this week, the band revealed to fans the cover art for the record, which has yet to be given a release date. The art was revealed to be done by Chris McMahon who is known for taking thrift shop landscape painting and adding some creative monsters to them.

Like always, there is still no indication as to when the follow-up to 2010’s Hurley is slated to be released. Maybe one of these teaser clips will do us the honor and reveal that soon.

This past Wednesday, the band premiered the full Youngblood Chronicles via Palladia which turned all the short music videos into one cinematic film. The missing videos at that point were the tenth music video”Miss Missing You” and the concluding video, “Save Rock and Roll” which featured a small cameo from Sir Elton John, because, you know he does sing on the song.

According to the band, a DVD of the “film” is currently in the works which would be really cool to add to you Fall Out Boy collection, you know if your inner teenaged self still does that.

Anyway, check out the remaining videos here and if you still haven’t caught up, don’t fret, we’ve got you covered.

Conclusion: “Save Rock and Roll”

The first single off the album was rumored to be called “Roar” and that was also confirmed but int he form of a video that Perry posted on her Twitter showing her burn the famous electric blue wig.
