These issues are clearly a priority for the band and Jacoby who have personally taken on the fight to end hunger, poverty and homelessness across the country by engaging their fans in the cause.

With the March 24th DGC/Interscope Records release of their fifth studio album, Metamorphosis, which debuted at Number 8 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart, Papa Roach celebrates ten years of success together, boasting a wealth of growth and bravado. Rolling Stone calls Metamorphosis “hard-riffing and accessible” and Billboard lauds it as “polished and wide-ranging.” The album’s first single “Lifeline” joins the pantheon of Papa Roach’s previous Top Ten multi-format smash hits like “Last Resort,” “Forever,” “Getting Away With Murder,” “Scars” and “To Be Loved.”  The band has been scorching stages across the globe in support of the album - playing alongside fellow powerhouses Motley Crue, Nickelback, Avenged Sevenfold, Staind, Seether and Jet.

Few bands come close to matching the intensity that Slayer - guitarists Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman, vocalist/bassist Tom Araya and drummer Dave Lombardo - brings to its live shows, having been named \"Best Live Band\" by numerous media outlets including Revolver, SPIN, and Metal Hammer.   World Painted Blood offers a Slayer-ized point of view of our world - God's terrifying global genocide, the chaos of our broken political system, the way-too-close proximity of world horrors that technology has brought us, and a chilling hypothesis of how the rest of the world might view America.  The album was recorded in Los Angeles over two time periods, during October 2008 and then between late January and March 2009.  World Painted Blood was produced by Greg Fidelman, who's spent time in the studio with Metallica, the Gossip, the (International) Noise Conspiracy, Slipknot and others, and executive produced by long-time Slayer colleague, Rick Rubin, who suggested Fidelman for the project.  One reviewer called the album \"the heaviest, bloodiest and best album in almost two decades.\"  Fans got a couple of early morsels of the brutal new Slayer material -- \"Psychopathy Red,\" a Hanneman song inspired by the heinous Russian serial killer Andrei Chikatilo, who confessed to savagely murdering 56 children, was recorded last October and then leaked online.  Then, the King-penned track, \"Hate Worldwide,\" was made available in July as a limited-edition single through Hot Topic.

After ten non-stop years of working as the world’s most humble multi-million selling rock band, the hard-charging North County San Diego-based quintet saw recording sessions for their aptly-titled seventh full-length album as a unique chance to reassess, reflect and rededicate.\u003cbr /\u003e“We built our own studio so we wouldn’t be paying and playing by the hour,” says Foreman of their self-styled Studio of the Foot home.  Beginning in 2007, the band tracked more than 80 songs and allowed themselves to get lost in the music again and get back to basics.  “That’s why we see this album as a new beginning of sorts,” continues Foreman, citing the inspiration that likewise moved bandmate/brother Tim Foreman (bass), Chad Butler (drums), Jerome Fontamillas (keyboards), and Drew Shirley (guitar).\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e“For us it was a feeling of true freedom.”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e“The average work day would begin with us meeting on the beach to do some surfing,” recalls Butler with a smile.  “Then we’d head to our studio to write and record.

Good songs can be played in many different ways and still add up.  For me, that meant tearing things apart a little bit and, as a result, \u003cspan style\u003d\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHello Hurricane\u003c/span\u003e has some of the most aggressive tones we’ve ever had when it comes to guitar and drums.”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThe album’s driving and urgent “Mess of Me” – with its personal declaration of independence, as Foreman passionately announces to the world that “I wanna spend the rest of my life alive!” – powerfully demonstrates the edge behind the new tones.  Not content to settle into a single groove, the band moves from the high flying album opener, “Needle and Haystack Life,” to songs like the stirring “Always” and the sweetly soaring “Your Love is a Song,” which – by its very nature – cries out for many waving hands illuminated by a blue cell phone glow.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThe anthemic, riff fueled “This is the Sound,” with its utterly timely generational themes, finds Foreman spitting, “This is the sound from the discontented mouths of a haunted nation!”  The “Hello Hurricane” title track is even more poignant when it comes to the band’s perspective on themselves and the world around them.  “I’m not talking about ‘Rock You Like a Hurricane,’” says Foreman with a wink before turning reflective.  “There is a real despair that I see when we travel around the country… and it’s music that people turn to in a time like this.  I wanted to reach out to those people with song.”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e“For the last decade or so, we’ve been a rock band that really thrives off that interaction with the crowd,” states Butler.  “Our motivation for playing music in the first place was a desire to connect with people in a deeper way.”  Out of this connection the band’s renowned live show has developed an incredibly loyal following both here in the states and abroad.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eSummer ‘09 also found the band proudly hosting the fifth annual Switchfoot Bro-Am, to benefit local chapters of StandUp For Kids, a national volunteer outreach nonprofit founded in San Diego.  Dedicated to making a difference in the lives of at-risk and homeless kids, the Bro-Am is highlighted by a surf contest, charity auction, and festival concert featuring sets by Switchfoot and a host of other area artists.  “We’re probably the five most fortunate people on the planet to be able to do what we do everyday,” adds drummer Chad Butler.  “The Bro-Am really sums up our connection with San Diego, the surfing and music communities coming together to make a difference.”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eSwitchfoot got their start in 1996 when the Foreman brothers and Butler came together around a mutual love of surfing and a passion for rock music spurred by such personal Southern California guitar heroes as Rocket from the Crypt, Drive like Jehu, Boilermaker, Three Mile Pilot and Heavy Vegetable.  “Growing up in San Diego, my heroes were the bands that had sold maybe 30,000 records,” says the elder Foreman.  “I’d never seen U2, so those were the bands that gave me my perspective of what a big rock show was.  There was a feeling of camaraderie in San Diego that afforded us the freedom in those early days to try anything – even if it meant failing.  I don’t think we’d be the band that we are today if we’d started in LA.”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e“The San Diego indie rock scene really spawned a lot of inspiration for us,” adds Butler, who remembers – at age 17 – when he was so desperate to see fIREHOSE play an 18+ show at UCSD that he climbed onto a roof to watch the show through a skylight window.  “As a kid I loved going to shows in San Diego.  I could not get enough of rock music.  The roof of the building was rattling during every song but the best moment was when Mike Watt looked up and pointed me out to the audience!”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThe band released their debut album, The Legend of Chin in 1997, followed in 1999 by New Way to be Human, an album that marked the band’s debut on the Billboard “Heatseekers” chart (at #31).  From the beginning, the band was a road-ready unit, building up an increasingly larger fanbase with each subsequent tour.  The year 2000 saw the addition of keyboardist Jerome Fontamillas to the fold and the release of Learning to Breathe, an album that saw Switchfoot taking creative steps forward while earning eventual RIAA gold in the process.\u003cbr /\u003eThe album spawned a Grammy nod and a spot on the RIAA platinum soundtrack to 2000’s A Walk to Remember, as Jon Foreman received the Les Paul Horizon Award for the Most Promising Up-and-Coming Guitarist.  The next year found Switchfoot stepping out with their Columbia Records debut, A Beautiful Letdown, a Top 20 Billboard 200 hit that scored double-platinum success on the strength of a pair of gold certified singles, “Meant to Live” and “Dare You to Move.”  “When we had success with Beautiful Letdown, it felt like we were thrust into waters we never dreamed we’d be in and we had to learn how to swim in,” says a reflective Jon Foreman, shaking his head.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eAs they navigated these new waters, the band outdid themselves again with the 2005 arrival of their fifth studio album, Nothing is Sound, their first with longtime touring guitarist Drew Shirley.  With “Stars,” an RIAA gold certified hit single, the album debuted at #3 on the Billboard 200 before rolling to RIAA gold itself.  Meanwhile, The Early Years: 1997-2000, a 2004 compilation of the band’s first three albums grabbed another RIAA gold award for Switchfoot.\u003cbr /\u003eThe band’s widely celebrated sixth studio album, Oh! Gravity, arrived in 2006 with production work from acclaimed producer/mixer Tim Palmer (the Cure, Pearl Jam) and executive engineer Steve Lillywhite (U2, the Rolling Stones).  Last year’s 18-song The Best Yet collection included the newly released song, “This is Home,” alongside the band’s biggest and best loved tracks.  (The song was also featured in Walt Disney Studios/Walden Media’s #1 box office theatrical release, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.)  The album’s special Deluxe Edition included a bonus DVD with 14 videos, among them two never-before-seen clips.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eLeading up to the recording of \u003cspan style\u003d\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHello Hurricane\u003c/span\u003e Jon Foreman branched out and released four EPs and a side project called Fiction Family. The 26 songs on the solo EPs featured acoustic instruments along with guest musicians such as Jeff Coffin, of The Flecktones and Dave Mathews Band, and Karl Denson, of Lenny Kravitz and The Greyboy Allstars. Partnering up with Sean Watkins of Nickel Creek for Fiction Family, their self-titled debut, on the Dave Matthews co-founded ATO Records, features a dozen songs written by Foreman and Watkins and recorded by the duo at home studios around San Diego.  The duo performed in dramatic fashion earlier this year at the 2009 Bonnaroo festival in Tennessee.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eAs for \u003cspan style\u003d\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHello Hurricane\u003c/span\u003e, the members of Switchfoot could not be more motivated to bring the new music to their grass roots grown fanbase.  “I think it is a landmark record for us,” says Butler, turning serious.  “It’s a new chapter in so many aspects of our lives, personally and professionally.  I think we’re in the best possible place we’ve been in as a band.”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cspan style\u003d\"color: rgb(255, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eWant More Switchfoot?\u003c/span\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eJason Coldiron's \u003ca id\u003d\"aptureLink_ccVnRoWn4f\" href\u003d\"http://cwgcoldiron.blogspot.com/2009/10/interview-with-chad-butler-of.html\"\u003eInterview With Switchfoot's Chad Butler\u003c/a\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003ca id\u003d\"aptureLink_LWfOqhY8tz\" href\u003d\"http://cwgliveanddirect.blogspot.com/2009/11/switchfoot-roxy-1111-sold-out-show.html\"\u003eShow Review - Roxy (Sold Out Show)\u003c/a\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003ca id\u003d\"aptureLink_3fubNXPUBH\" href\u003d\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/chickswithgunsmagazine/sets/72157622813624958/\"\u003eView all of our Switchfoot Photos (Roxy)\u003c/a\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003ca id\u003d\"aptureLink_OydhTJast3\" href\u003d\"http://cwghottickets.blogspot.com/2009/10/switchfoot-roxy-1111.html\"\u003eNews/Tour Dates\u003c/a\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eReview of \u003cspan style\u003d\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eHello Hurricane\u003c/span\u003e (Coming Soon)\u003cdiv class\u003d\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003e\u003cimg width\u003d'1' height\u003d'1' src\u003d'https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6967377936567481491-5766688813513586760?l\u003dcwghottickets.blogspot.com' alt\u003d'' /\u003e\u003c/div\u003e"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://cwghottickets.blogspot.com/feeds/5766688813513586760/comments/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http://cwghottickets.blogspot.com/2009/10/switchfoot-roxy-1111.html#comment-form","title":"0 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6967377936567481491/posts/default/5766688813513586760"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6967377936567481491/posts/default/5766688813513586760"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http://cwghottickets.blogspot.com/2009/10/switchfoot-roxy-1111.html","title":"Switchfoot @ The Roxy 11/11"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"CWG, Inc."},"uri":{"$t":"http://www.blogger.com/profile/08167826987284190998"},"email":{"$t":"editor@cwgmagazine.com"},"gd$extendedProperty":{"xmlns$gd":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005","name":"OpenSocialUserId","value":"12156025679189771024"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8G41dtS7j8Y/St9vJAmI7vI/AAAAAAAADyk/Cc2lZGOeMAM/s72-c/_MG_8979_LR.JPG","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"xmlns$thr":"http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0","$t":"0"}},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967377936567481491.post-8097663401380340455"},"published":{"$t":"2009-10-21T12:36:00.000-07:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2009-10-21T12:47:51.365-07:00"},"category":[{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"chicks with guns"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"hot tickets"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"chris brown"}],"title":{"type":"text","$t":"Chris Brown @ The avalon"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"\u003ca onblur\u003d\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href\u003d\"http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8G41dtS7j8Y/St9lU9LicjI/AAAAAAAADyU/odQKZRsCSYU/s1600-h/chris-brown.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg style\u003d\"margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;\" src\u003d\"http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_8G41dtS7j8Y/St9lU9LicjI/AAAAAAAADyU/odQKZRsCSYU/s400/chris-brown.jpg\" alt\u003d\"\" id\u003d\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395142289307890226\" border\u003d\"0\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003eChris Brown is set to have an intimate performance at Avalon in Hollywood on November 18, 2009.

Around the time he reached puberty, he discovered his singing voice. Within a couple years, he had a recording contract with Jive and was lined up with several production and songwriting heavyweights (Jermaine Dupri, Bryan-Michael Cox, Dre \u0026amp; Vidal, Sean Garrett, Storch) for his eponymous first album, an immediate Top Ten hit released in November of 2005.

After 16 months together, playing shows and recording demos in Los Angeles, DGC records (Geffen) signed Weezer and released their self-titled debut album in 1994 which was a hit from the start. They released three singles from Weezer: \"Undone - The Sweater Song\", \"Buddy Holly\", and \"Say It Ain't So\". \"Buddy Holly\" won several MTV awards that year, and Weezer eventually went double-platinum.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eIn 1996, Weezer's much-awaited second lp, entitled Pinkerton, was released. it is quite the opposite of Weezer; the guitars are more gruff, the lyrics have a deeper meaning, and the band's talent and style has matured considerably. Weezer released three songs from Pinkerton: \"El corcho\", \"The Good Life\", and \"Pink Triangle\". Pinkerton went gold in record sales and has been a steady seller since.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eFast forward to spring 2000. After a long break they returned, playing unannounced shows under secret names, booked dates on that summer's Warped Tour, and subsequently a nationwide club tour. Much to the band's surprise the dates sold out instantly. Juiced by an overwhelming fan response and a wealth of new material, Weezer was back. Following another sold-out tour in the fall the band continued writing and practicing new material in Los Angeles into 2001. A Christmas song e.p. was distributed to fans and radio stations and shortly before the new year Weezer began recording their 3rd effort, dubbed \"The Green Album\" in Los Angeles, again with producer Ric Ocasek. With the album finished the band got back on the road for much of the rest of 2001. The band continued their relentless touring throughout the year, finally pausing to record their 4th album, 2002’s Maladroit, which went to #3.  In 2005 Weezer returned with their fifth full-length album, Make Believe, hitting #2 on The Billboard 200. Weezer (Red Album) followed in 2008 reaching #4 on The Billboard 200.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cspan style\u003d\"font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);\"\u003eSATURDAY –OCTOBER 24th, 2009\u003c/span\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eON SALE SATURDAY- OCTOBER 3rd AT 10 AM\u003cbr /\u003eTICKETS FOR SHOWS AT THE HOLLYWOOD PALLADIUM ARE EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE ONLINE \u2028AT  \u003ca href\u003d\"http://www.livenation.com/\"\u003eWWW.LIVENATION.COM\u003c/a\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u2028Get Tickets at LiveNation.com or by phone at (877) 598-6671.\u003cdiv class\u003d\"blogger-post-footer\"\u003e\u003cimg width\u003d'1' height\u003d'1' src\u003d'https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6967377936567481491-1530539869890252478?l\u003dcwghottickets.blogspot.com' alt\u003d'' /\u003e\u003c/div\u003e"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://cwghottickets.blogspot.com/feeds/1530539869890252478/comments/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"http://cwghottickets.blogspot.com/2009/09/weezer-hollywood-palladium.html#comment-form","title":"0 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6967377936567481491/posts/default/1530539869890252478"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6967377936567481491/posts/default/1530539869890252478"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"http://cwghottickets.blogspot.com/2009/09/weezer-hollywood-palladium.html","title":"WEEZER  @ The Hollywood Palladium"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"CWG, Inc."},"uri":{"$t":"http://www.blogger.com/profile/08167826987284190998"},"email":{"$t":"editor@cwgmagazine.com"},"gd$extendedProperty":{"xmlns$gd":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005","name":"OpenSocialUserId","value":"12156025679189771024"}}],"media$thumbnail":{"xmlns$media":"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/","url":"http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8G41dtS7j8Y/SsKfcgAVVWI/AAAAAAAADRQ/DCGKLky4Ebs/s72-c/weezer.jpg","height":"72","width":"72"},"thr$total":{"xmlns$thr":"http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0","$t":"0"}},{"id":{"$t":"tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967377936567481491.post-6745778951908246760"},"published":{"$t":"2009-09-20T01:27:00.000-07:00"},"updated":{"$t":"2009-09-20T01:27:00.433-07:00"},"category":[{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"chicks with guns"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"dashboard confessional"},{"scheme":"http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#","term":"hot tickets"}],"title":{"type":"text","$t":"Dashboard Confessional W/ New Found Glory, Never Shout Never"},"content":{"type":"html","$t":"\u003ca onblur\u003d\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href\u003d\"http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8G41dtS7j8Y/SrNE9pzyKeI/AAAAAAAADDY/5ridKgBKUKY/s1600-h/dashboard.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg style\u003d\"margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 325px; height: 400px;\" src\u003d\"http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8G41dtS7j8Y/SrNE9pzyKeI/AAAAAAAADDY/5ridKgBKUKY/s400/dashboard.jpg\" alt\u003d\"\" id\u003d\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382721805623634402\" border\u003d\"0\" /\u003e\u003c/a\u003eBoca Raton, Florida’s Dashboard Confessional, which also includes bassist Scott Schoenbeck, guitarist John Lefler, and drummer Mike Marsh, will preview songs from their new album Alter The Ending on its fall nationwide tour.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eAfter select college shows in September and October, the trek begins in earnest in November and will criss-cross the U.S. making a stop at The Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles on Sunday, November 15th.

They got their start in early 2003, several years after Vassar College classmates Conway and Endicott (formerly of the Pasties) performed in the collegiate ska outfit Skabba the Hut. After relocating to the Big Apple, they discovered the Electroclash scene was in full swing. They loved the sound of electronic music made in the basement on piece-of-shit equipment. It sounded new and different, and they wondered if they could take that sound … and add it to a live band, creating a fusion of rock and electronic music. THE BRAVERY and began performing stylish dance rock and an introductory gig at Brooklyn's Stinger Club gave way to a residency at Arlene's Grocery, and whispers on the street eventually led the Bravery to a recording contract with Island Def Jam in the States \u2028\u2028After the Unconditional EP appeared in early 2005, critics quickly pounced on the band, with the Village Voice proclaiming THE BRAVERY as \"New York's Official Next Big Thing\" while MTV and Rolling Stone deemed them an artist to watch.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eA co-headlining tour with Ash in spring 2005 coincided with the release of THE BRAVERY‘s self-titled album, which produced two successful singles in \"An Honest Mistake\" and \"Unconditional.\" After more rounds of touring, THE BRAVERY eventually decamped to the studio to work on their next album.
