Lostprophets have had a phenomenal track record. They have amassed a massive fanbase, sold millions of albums, packed out arenas globally, released a No.1 Album and have topped it off by winning ‘Best British Band’ ‘Best Single’ and ‘Best Album’ trophies at the Kerrang! Awards. By doing this, the band have crafted space for themselves, and created a sound that is essentially their own.
It was their second album ‘Start Something’ that saw Lostprophets seething and grinning with that “toldja so” confidence. With vocalist Ian Watkins tearing the place apart with passion “The result is an upbeat, defiant and utterly brilliant pop record” – Drowned In Sound
The brand new album ‘The Betrayed’ is released on January 29 and it sees the Lostprophets at their most ambitious “sweating hunger and ambition with big riffs and earworm choruses that reach over the moshpit to the stands beyond.” - BBC
For the first time in over 6 years Australian fans will get to witness the powerful live show that the Lostprophets create. Change The Record sums them up perfectly… “Not a single person in this room leaves with an experience any less than exhilarating.”
After taking the US by storm in 2009 touring alongside The Used, Alesana and Pierce The Veil, Welsh rockers, The Blackout are set to intoxicate the world in 2010. Their addictive new album ‘Best In Town’ has been met with critical acclaim by both fans and media;
“‘The Best In Town’ has shown The Blackout can up their game and match it up with the big boys” – Punktastic
“On the strength of these 10 tracks, the band are quite simply the best in town and shows the potential of The Blackout as a genre busting band.” – Altsounds
Having recently been nominated by Kerrang! As Best British Newcomers, the wrecking ball that is The Blackout, are preparing to unleash their potent brew of massive rock riffs, soaring melodies and maniacal screams on Australian audiences.
