So let’s celebrate the awesome Avenged Sevenfold reaching number 1 in the UK album chart with ‘Hail To The King’ (FYI, that means they’ve sold more this week than famed-producer Naughty Boy).
Let’s have a listen to the self-titled track shall we?

Isn’t it nice to see a band that don’t take themselves too seriously? With all the pouting, dark stares and angsty videos you see nowadays, its good that there are still some bands out there who just want a bit of fun!
With that, I bring you the new music video from Finland’s Reckless Love, ‘So Happy I Could Die’. Enjoy!

So here’s my pick for today, its an actually an old(ish) track – ‘For You’ by The Calling. Taken from the Daredevil soundtrack (great songs, not such a great film..) it was one of my favourites back in the day.
What’s inspired this week’s pick is the saddening news that the band’s vocalist, Alex Band was assaulted and held at gunpoint on Sunday. Even though I’ve never met the guy, having spent my teen-years loving the band, I still feel some kind of connection to him.
Anyway, my thoughts are with him and his family..

Well who hasn’t felt left out at some point in their lives eh? I know I have! (If you haven’t you’re extremely lucky..). It’s nice to see the issue being addressed by Aussies Tonight Alive in their new music video for ‘Lonely Girl’.
Have a lookee below:

We all love a bit of indie don’t we? I definitely love this. Chvrches (pronounced ‘churches’) are a Scottish three pieces with voices like angels and lyrics like daggers. This is a brilliant bit of synthy indie pop that’ll hopefully brighten up your week!

Who didn’t love a bit of Papa Roach back in the day? (Or now actually, seeing as they’re still going..) ‘To Be Loved’ is definitely a good’un for a night out. Play it now. Play it loud!

Have to say, I’ve loved Placebo a long time. ‘Too Many Friends’ may not quite live up to the band’s previous work (in my opinion, anyway), but that’s not to say the new album won’t be great!
According to the band’s facebook, there’s something new coming on Tuesday..

So if you, like me, missed out on Asking Alexandria at Brixton Academy in January (in my defence, I was stranded at home because of the snow!), you can see exactly what an amazing show it was in their new video for ‘Run Free’, filmed live at the gig. To be honest, there’s a few too many up-the-guitar shots for my liking, but other than that, it looks pretty epic:
I know I basically covered this before with the lyric video, but every new AFI video is a must-watch really. This one’s a suitabley moody affair, complete with lots of dark eye contact, drawn faces and screaming from mr Davey Havok himself. If you’re a fan, you’ll probably love this already. If you’re not, you clearly haven’t listened to them enough.
Check out the official video ‘I Hope You Suffer’:

Well I hope you’ve all had as good a weekend as I have, but its always over way too soon isn’t it? If you’re trying to forget about the impending work tomorrow, here’s the perfect tune to blast out of your speakers and pretend its still Friday night.. ‘Night On Fire’ is the new single from Finnish glam rockers Reckless Love.
Bizarre video, but great stuff..
