Lostprophets recently did their first U.S. radio interview in six years via x107.5 out of Las Vegas. You can listen to the interview here. The band's fifth studio album Weapons will be available in North America on June 19th via Fearless Records.
I europe it was much earlier released. I like the album though. It's a bit soft altogether, but definitely kind of well written, and some of the songs are pretty epic. But not as good as their other releases, I have to admit.
It just sounds like they're on autopilot now which is disappointing... they have the potential to release something as good as SS. It says a lot when the bonus tracks are 1000000x times better than the actual albums tracks. well it's not a bad record, there are some good songs but nothing that really standouts
Haven't properly listened to Weapons all the way through but from what I hear it's not their best shit, saw them not so long a go in Cardiff and for the second set they played the whole of SS was fucking amazing.
I think Lostprophets are a really solid band that stopped being creative after Start Something. They still write some catchy songs, but the experimentation is long gone.
