Beach Boys will gather together to hold a tour in honor of the 50th anniversary of the group

For the Muse group, the time has come for great changes

The new album of the group, according to Muse Basist, Chris Volustenholm, will be very different from what was made by musicians earlier. “The group failed the line over what we did before, and now we want to move forward, and write down the album that will differ from all the previous ones in the most radical way,” the musician said. Muse has already begun work on a new album, which will become their sixth studio work and will appear no earlier than the second half of 2012.

Sergio Pizzorno from the Kasabian group urged musicians to be more daring

The guitarist Kasabian accused the representatives of the “guitar rock” of their failure in the charts, which, in his opinion, is due to a too traditional approach to writing music. “It is precisely such groups that should be able to go to the most bold experiment, destroy the boundaries of their work. Gity music had never been in such a strong climate in the top lists, as it is now. You should become a little crazy, but not to bury the beautiful song that you wrote. The Beatles Strawberry Fields Fields has a magnificent melody, but it sounds, in general, as the most unusual experiment. Rock music is not enough open boundaries, ”said Sergio Pizzorno.

Billy Corgan called the new Smashing PumpKins album over the past fifteen years

The leader of Smashing PumpKins is very pleased with what the group managed to do while working on their new album Oceania. “This is our best album since Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness, and this is not only my personal opinion. When we finished the album, we let it listen to about fifty of our best friends, and each of them said: "This is a great job." Such a unanimity has not been exactly fifteen years old, from that day when the same thing was said about Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness. Recall that the album "Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness" was released in 1995 and is still considered the best Smashing Pumpkins album. The new album of Oceania will be released at the beginning of next year.

Blur will perform at the Brit Awards ceremony

The group will give a concert on February 21 of next year during awarding Brit Awards Prizes, and the group itself will receive a reward in the category “The largest contribution to the development of rock music”. The bass player of the group Alex James said that he would be very glad to speak on stage with his friends, but did not answer the question about the further creative plans of Blur. Dzhams also expressed his opinion on what would happen if the Blur group was born today. “No one would have noticed us,” he said.

Beach Boys will gather together to hold a tour in honor of the 50th anniversary of the group

Brian Wilson, who previously announced that he would not take part in this tour, changed his decision. Now he, as well as Mike Love, Alan Jardine, Bruce Johnson and David Marx, will give fifty concerts, the first of which will be held in April of next year in New Orleans. “This tour means a lot to me, primarily because I just miss the guys. It will be great to record something with them, all the more to be with them on the same stage again, ”said Brian Wilson in an interview.
