antiMusic reports: Atreyu's new CD 'Lead Sails
And A Paper Anchor' hits stores next Tuesday and to celebrate we asked
Brandon to pick his top five favorite tracks from the CD and tell us a
little about each one. Today he tells us about " Two Become One". Here's
Brandon:
"This song for me was all around awesome.
From the beginning, when we were writing, it was one of my favorites. This
song was a really fun one to record. We got to do all of the vocals for
this record on the beach in San Simeon, CA. It was crazy to record vocals
while standing on sand and listening to waves crash in front of you at
2 am. It was awesome."
Listen to the songs, grab tour dates, check
out behind the scenes videos and more- here!

antiMusic reports: Will the members of the
Rolling Stones soon start gathering moss? Maybe if a report citing an always
reliable unnamed source is to be believed. In fact, this source says that
Sunday's concert in London will be their swan song.
That's right, Mick and Keef are reportedly
hanging it up following their concert at London's O2 Arena this coming
Sunday (8/26/07), the final stop on their "Bigger Bang Tour."
Strangely, the Stones camp haven't announce
this supposed retirement so maybe they like the irony of going out with
a whisper instead of a bang, contradicting the tour name. Of course, the
news of the retirement comes from an unnamed source so for all we know
it's the mailroom guy at their label, the reporter's next door neighbor,
the aliens that brought Mick Mars to our planet, Batboy or Clara the Talking
Dog. So grab those salt shakers as you read the- news

Saturday's Warped Tour show at the Gorge Amphitheater when the after party
at a neighboring campground turned into a riot with burning toilets, fights
and five arrests.
Grant County deputies responded to an injury
call at a campground near the Warped event site and when they arrived they
encountered several fights as well as burning portable toilets then things
turned ugly as some campers pelted deputies with beer bottles, cans and
rocks, and the windshield of a fire truck was shattered by debris, according
to AP.

a law enforcement officer, disorderly conduct and intimidating a public
servant with threats to do harm.- more

antiMusic reports: Fans that want a new CD
featuring Axl Rose won't have to wait for "Chinese Democracy" as Axl is
a featured guest on Sebastian Bach's new album "Angel Down" which hits
stores on November 20.
Sebastian revealed the collaboration in
an exclusive interview with Blabbermouth. Here is a tiny part of that conversation
(read it all at the end link): Basically, the collaboration with me and
Axl started when he asked me last December to sing on
I was at his house
and he was playing me the new "Chinese Democracy" album actually, there's
more than one; there's, like, four but he was playing a song called "Sorry",
which is a very heavy, grinding kind of riff and we were partying and stuff
and I started singing a high harmony on the chorus of this song and he
flipped out, and he goes, "That sounds great." He goes, "I want you to
sing that on the record." So in January, I went to Electric Lady [studios
in New York City], and I sang the chorus of this song "Sorry", and it came
out really, really amazing.
So now that I'm finishing my record, just
for the fun of it, when I got to L.A., I just texted Axl, I go, "Hey, dude,
when are you gonna come and sing on my record?" I was just joking. [Laughs]
I didn't think he would do that. But he never ceases to amaze me. And his
response was, "When? Where? What time? Where is the studio? What time do
you want me there?" - Read

antiMusic reports: The walking punchline that
is 50 Cent is reportedly looking to enter the dietary supplement business.
Somehow adding the supplement company to
his already bloated "name brands" that includes a record label, energy
drink, publishing company and clothing line has something to do with a
film he's making where he plays a boxer.
"I'm getting ready to do a dietary supplement
company," Fiddy said according to Contact Music. "So I have a nutritionist
and a physical trainer travel everywhere with me. I'm preparing for a boxing
film." - more

PR reports: Relient K - the band that brought
you Five Score And Seven Years Ago, mmhmm, Two Lefts Don't Make a Right
(But
Three Do) and The Anatomy of the Tongue in Cheek - is heralding the holiday
season in its own inimitable style with the release of its first-ever,
full-length Christmas album: Let It Snow, Baby
Let It Reindeer. The album,
scheduled for release by Capitol Music Group on October 23rd, features
Relient K's take on 10 holiday classics and six original songs.
From the glory of "Handel's Messiah" and
"Angels We Have Heard On High" to the goofiness of 1950's novelty song
"I'm Gettin' Nuttin' For Christmas" and "Santa Clause Is Thumbing To Town"
(wherein Relient K imagines a Christmas full of catastrophes that reduce
St. Nick to hitchhiking), Let It Snow, Baby
Let It Reindeer captures the
many sides of the season.
