A Facebook campaign has started to convince the "Big Four of 90's Punk Rock" - Green Day, The Offspring, Bad Religion, and Rancid - to tour together. The effort was inspired by the success of festivals put on by heavy metal's "Big Four" - Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax.
Coldplay frontman won't use the term 'concept album' to describe Mylo Xyloto (out October 25), but admits "Our new record is sort of a story. It's not quite a musical, but it's dangerously close." He also adds the Rihanna collaboration on "Princess of China" was written with her in mind.
Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor says the band is so creatively productive right now, their next record could be a concept double album.
Radioheadpromise to tour in 2012. Also, one of singer Thom Yorke's side projects (Atoms For Peace, which counts Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea among its members) will record and release their debut full-length. As reported earlier this week, Radiohead will perform four songs on the first ever hour-long The Colbert Report this Monday.
Fall Out Boy singer Patrick Stump's solo album Soul Punk will be out soon. His video for "The City" featuring rapper Lupe Fiasco is online.
Say Anything finished recording their new album. It should be out early next year.
