 | Completely Free Coldplay Album Streaming |
 The new Coldplay album ‘Viva La Vida or Death
And All His Friends’ is now ready to be listened to by all the world. The album
is available to listen to completely for free over at a special Coldplay
Myspace page so for all those interested in the music of Coldplay then I highly
recommend listening to it. Even if you don’t particularly like Coldplay you
might as well take advantage of the fact that its free, right?
To listen to the album you must be a
member of Myspace.com, so if you’re not already then get signing up and then
you shall have full access to the fine new Coldplay album that is ‘Viva La Vida
or Death And All His’. So it’s not quite a free Coldplay album download but it’s
certainly close, expect to see an Alt-UK review of the album appearing very
soon.

| Listen to The Levellers For Free |
The Levellers ‘Burn America Burn’ single is
now available to download completely for free. An animated video has been made
for the track; animators Evil Twin have brought the bands bassist Jeremy
Cunningham’s artwork to life for the very first time and this makes for an extremely
interesting video indeed. The video has been directed by Ben Strebel and can of
course be seen on youtube.
If listening to The Levellers completely
for free just isn’t enough for you then the band can also be found at the
following locations throughout the country for the next few months:
26.06.08 - Glastonbury Festival
The Left Field Stage
04.07.08 - Guilfest
12.07.08 - Arley Hall Northwich

| New Found Glory Tour Update |
In addition to the dates that I previously
announced on the website; New Found Glory will also now be playing a gig at
Liverpool. The Liverpool show will be on November 19th 2008 and will
take place at the Carling Academy. It will of course be a headline date and
tickets will be going on sale from June 6th.
If you’re a big New Found Glory fan then I
thoroughly suggest acquiring a ticket sooner rather than later; it’s a great
opportunity for those in the Liverpool area to catch the band and certainly isn’t
a tour date to be missed. Tickets will no doubt well out quickly and further
details of how/where to pick up tickets can here be found.

| Alexisonfire Solo Project Shoots UK Bound |
Black Lungs will soon be coming to the UK,
Black Lungs is of course the solo project of Wade Macneil from Alexisonfire and
this will be the debut UK tour for the man. The tour will feature Liam from
Cancer Bats on drums and the following venues will be taken in around the
country:
Tue
26 Aug 2008 UK Glasgow
King Tuts
Wed 27 Aug 2008 UK Manchester
Roadhouse
Thu 28 Aug 2008 UK London Water Rats
Fri 29 Aug 2008 UK Cardiff
Ifor Bach
Sat 30 Aug 2008 UK Brighton
Audio
The Black lungs solo project takes influence
from such musical genres as folk, punk, classical, country, and soul; it’s an
eclectic mix of sounds and all five of the bands shows should be packed full of
energy and life. The debut album of Black Lungs will be emerging later this
year on the 25th of August, make sure you watch out for that one as
it will be released through Hassle Records and there is absolutely no doubt in
my mind that the album will be excellent.
