New Year, New Music!

Happy New Year everyone, hope you all had a good time counting down/up to midnight.
I am excited about 2007.. I have faith that it will be a great year for life and music for everyone. I will be kicking off the New Year in style tonight by going to watch Gallows and As I Lay Dying play in Colchester, and then going to watch them play again on Monday at the Hammersmith Appolo in London with Bullet For My Valentine. They should both be great shows, for different reasons. Anyone thats been reading any metal mags, or listening to the Rock Show will have heard of Gallows.. so I thought I would throw in my extra tuppence... and say:
LISTEN TO THEM! GO WATCH THEM! THEY'RE BLOODY GREAT!!!! Support amazing new UK music.
Check them out at myspace.com/burnthegallows and here is a nice pic of them from Halloween last year (in fancy dress).
On that note - there are some other great UK bands popping up: Check out Flood Of Red, Sylosis (have obsessed about them before), Lights. Action! are good too, The Legacy and many more. The Metal Hammer Incomings (new band) section that I edit is a good way to check out what new bands have new releases and tour dates coming up (shameless plug, but I work hard on it.. ).

On ANOTHER note... I am totally obsessed with Canada (not that I have ever been). There is a new Comeback Kid record coming out soon, that is apparently amazing (I get it next week), Alexisonfore will be touring soon (March I think), Billy Talent will also be touring soon.. and of course.. the Cancer Bats will be back around the UK a lot this year - UK dates planned in May and possibly March (tbc). Here is a little pic of them and me (and my house mates) from when the lads came and lived with us before Christmas. Bless 'em.


Until next time,
rock on! rock out!
Hell yeah.
