Hey Monday and All Time Low this week; Kerrang! you do spoil me. I can't wait to see these fantastic pop-punk bands live next week. Hey Monday on Sunday - Leeds cockpit and All Time Low on Wednesday, Manchester Academy. Suppose I better get prepared for sweaty dancing and penis jokes?

First of all, great mag! Its Nice to see that Deaf Havana are finally getting more coverage. They're from my town. Good ol' Kings Lynn [=
Poster of them perhaps?
Oh, and can you confirm (or deny) that Atreyu are supporting Hollywood Undead on their UK tour? I've heard alot of rumours, but can't find anywhere that'll confirm.
Thanks K! Keep it up [=

P.S. Heard The new FFAF track on here, and it sounds like they are FINALLY going back to their good old "Casually Dressed..." selves!!!

Oh dear, oh dear... FINALLY! Pearl Jam is where they ought to be. Love them to death, I do. But I do agree with "Sarah" (on 'the ultimate grunge masterclass') PJ aren't what we used to call Grunge*.

Really, the only glmipse of the overall 'Grunge' thing in them was probably a little sandpaper sound in Eddie's voice, other than that, nothing.

Anyway, I'm just MORE than glad you guys placed them (even if is just Eddie on the cover) up on your mag. I will be on the search now. ;D

Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Green Day, all of my likes as GOOD MUSIC goes to, thank you very much for having them.

XoXo
-Izzy.

PS. "Got Some If You Need It." ;D

In the review for The used there's a photo of me! Yeeeeah, I'm the fit one on the right of Bert. (Y)

I've lived with Kerrang for over 20 years but i just can't read this shit anymore - not even for the mighty Pearl Jam. Kerrang used to be the voice of the alternative, dragging bands from the underground to the ears of people everywhere. Now its a unit shifter that will suck the balls of any act selling their souls to the charts. The reason i'm on here? My mates wanted me to see how bad it's got. Kerrang died years ago imho. I know i'm not the only one that's given up on this rag. Fuck kerrang - fuck them in their stupid asses. Sellouts.

Putting that poster in kerrang of those most beautiful four talented boys was one of the best things youuuuu everrr did :)
just wnna say thanks for putting it in; i love those boys with all my heart, and so do all the other fans they have.
best feeling ever knowing that i'd be opening it to up to see their gorgeous faces.
xxxxxxx

thank you so much for putting that amazing poster of my passion in the mag! it seriously made my day, (no my week!) when i saw it! it is so great to see such a passionate, dedicated, hard-working band getting the recognition they deserve.
lots of my mates said it was such an epic fail having young guns and my passion on the same page so you couldn't have both posters (without buying two copies) but for me there was no competition.. MY PASSION all the way :) thanks again xx
