pop-metal aesthetic with the melodic allure and accessible hooks of classic
pop radio. The groups new album co-produced by Rick Parker (Black Rebel
Motorcycle Club, Space Twins [Weezer guitarist Brian Bells side project])
proves that if the New Wave of Classic Rock is in session, American Heartbreak
is at the front of the class. [see full story for more including tour dates]-

The
British Are Coming (To SXSW) |
Little Big Man reports: Every year, a cadre
of the United Kingdom's hottest new artists set sail for Austin to partake
in sUKonthis -- the annual British invasion of the South By Southwest Music
Festival. Some already have major label deals in the States; others are
new even in their home country; but they all have one thing in common:
the potential to explode in the months following SXSW. They bring with
them a coalition of British music business and international trade entities,
ready to help pave the way for the next generation of exceptional English,
Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish musicians in America.
In 2003, it was The Darkness. In 2004:
The Futureheads, Aqualung, Jamie Cullum and Athlete. Last year, The Go!
Team and the Kaiser Chiefs were the talk of the festival, while the Magic
Numbers and James Blunt went from virtual unknowns to Next Big Things.
