"Carry On" to Stereophonics survives label chaos

Scoring a fifth successive U.K. No. 1 album should be a momentous occasion for any band, but in October 2007 the Welsh rock outfit Stereophonics wasn't able to savor the achievement for long.
Just as their sixth studio set, "Pull the Pin," topped the Official Charts Company (OCC) albums list, Stereophonics' label, V2, was integrated into Mercury Records following its acquisition by Universal Music Group. That left one of Britain's biggest contemporary rock bands effectively between labels.
Looking back, Stereophonics singer/songwriter Kelly Jones reckons the timing affected sales for "Pull the Pin." "Nobody was working the record," he recalls. "Mercury didn't want to step on V2's toes, and V2 staff were going, 'We're all being fired.' It was a s--t time."
Fast forward two years, and Jones says the quartet is "in a better place than it's ever been." His mood is fueled by the U.K. release of the band's new studio album, "Keep Calm & Carry On," November 16.
Mercury will release "Keep Calm" simultaneously in Japan and Australasia; the album will roll out internationally in February 2010, but an American release is yet to be confirmed.
The album's mix of contemplative ballads and fiery rock numbers pushes Jones' deep vocals to the fore. "I didn't want to make a guitar album with a big wall of sound," he says. "I just wanted to do something a lot more reflective and a bit more layered."
The act has sold more than 9 million albums worldwide, says its Los Angeles-based manager, Dan Garnett of Nettwerk.
Label upheaval notwithstanding, the OCC says "Pull the Pin" has sold 199,700 copies in the United Kingdom. But that doesn't compare to Stereophonics' 2001 best seller "Just Enough Education to Perform," with 1.8 million copies.
U.S. sales for "Just Enough" stand at 83,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan, but Jones says the band has learned to live with its failure to crack America. "We just never had that luck," he says. "It would be good to do, but we don't lie awake at night worrying about it."
The band does plan to keep busy with extensive touring. Garnett says the "Pull the Pin" world tour grossed more than $10 million in ticket sales. He anticipates similar results from the new campaign, including a March 2010 U.K. arena tour followed by Europe, Asia, Australia and three U.S. trips.
"We're a live band," Jones says. "That's where we get our kicks from a lot of the time -- we're all kind of gypsies at heart."

STEREOPHONICS - PENN HELPS JONES REALISE MOVIE DREAM

STEREOPHONICS frontman KELLY JONES is set to add filmmaker to his resume after actor SEAN PENN offered to help him launch a movie career.The Welsh rocker considered a career as a scriptwriter before finding fame with the Dakota hitmakers - and now he's set to realise his moviemaking dreams after impressing Penn with a project he's been developing. Jones says, "I was at L.A. airport when I saw Sean, who I'd once met at a U2 gig in London. So I went up, said hello and told him all about a story I'd come up with called The Drop, about an apprentice hangman in the 1940s, based on a book called The Hangman's Tale which I'd bought the rights to years ago. "Sean gave me his agent's number and that was that. But then, when I walked on to the plane, I realised he'd really been allocated the seat behind me. When we got off he waited for 20 minutes while I got my suitcase from the baggage carousel so I could give him a copy of the story."

Keep Calm and Carry On to Stereophonics

Look, Stereophonics it's far too easy to be plain mean, but the title of the Welsh band's seventh album is an open goal. Taken from the currently popularised Second World War propaganda poster, the phrase reeks of ambition free, meat and potatoes, join-the-dots rock; they might just as well have called it Meh! or Shrug.
But enough negativity. It's no mystery what makes Stereophonics so popular: Kelly Jones's instantly recognisable Velcro rasp and his ability to write robust little rock songs with big hooks. What they lack in inspiration they make up for in perspiration and occasionally, as with the fantastic Dakota, they write a song so incontestably great it turns subjective critical opinion to dust.
Keep Calm and Carry On offers only a slight change in emphasis. The sound is leaner than before, featuring more electronics and fewer big guitars, and when it works it's pretty fine. She's Alright is engagingly stupid-simple, a propulsive and decidedly moreish opener that succeeds in pulling off the kind of louche, riff driven rock U2 attempted so disastrously with Get on Your Boots. There's a pleasing glam strain running through I Got Your Number, Trouble is a powerpop blast and the Motown thump of Innocent shows Jones once again obsessing over small-town nostalgia, the protagonists "holding hands, drinking cans in the orange light".
Much of the rest is solid, tidy and obvious, whether it's big ballad Could You be the One?, limper than weekm old lettuce, Uppercut, a poor man's Dakota, or Stuck in a Rut, a puffing bluesy rocker. In honour of their doughty, workmanlike album title, Stereophonics deserve doughty, workmanlike praise: they're a safe pair of hands, and this record does exactly what it promises. There are worse crimes.

‘Dakota’- Stereophonics

Does anyone else remember the 2005 Stereophonics song ‘Dakota’? I recall Popjustice’s shock at the time when it realised it was the best thing released that special week in the UK, and as far as I’m concerned, it’s their best moment ever.

My night took a actually weird turn earlier this evening and I ended up in some exclusive bar with Stereophonics, Snow Patrol, and Jamie T (who is an absolute delight, by the way) after the Q Awards. Meeting the Welsh rockers reminded me of how much I loved ‘Dakota’ when it came out, and I hope you dig it too.

"Innocent"-Stereophonics

Stereophonics' new video for "Innocent," from the upcoming Keep Calm & Carry On is so British Morrissey jealous to make its band Ben Sherman wearing. The old film into the band have edited themselves stock containing tons of Union Jacks and a row of Yorkshire style row houses looks straight out of 1961, or even earlier. (Why does this video remind me of Monty Python's Meaning Of Life?)The title of Keep Calm & Carry On is a reference to a British poster produced during World War II to increase public morale. The album is out in UK at 16 Nov.

kings of Cardiff Castle stereophonics

THE best way to look a band is on their home turf.
Seeing the STEREOPHONICS in their own manor in spectacular surroundings was even better.
And the band were on top form. New single Guiltness is a belter and the old hits in the set list got the 7,000-strong crowd singing along.
I shared a lift to the gig with KELLY JONES and he gave me a tour of his old stomping ground, including a pub where STEVE McFADDEN and ROSS KEMP former EastEnders Phil and Grant Mitchell saw the band before they had a record deal.
Where he bought me his showed his first guitar and joked about the High And Mighty clothes store where he got his threads as a kid.
Kelly said: "A local cafe we went on Friday and the bloke offered us his homemade lager. At another cafe the woman asked if we were famous. I said we were Artexers. She said, 'I thought you weren't'. It's good to be home."
The post gig tear up ended in the small hours.
Innocent is out on November 9, album Keep Calm And Carry On a week later.

STEREOPHONICS - STEREOPHONICS' LP NERVES

Stereophonics are confident of their new material, but admit they are still nervous about the release of their next album.
Stereophonics are "nervous" about releasing their new record.
The Welsh rockers are preparing for the release of next LP 'Keep Calm and Carry On' and despite having five chart-topping albums in their career, are refusing to take success for granted.
Singer Kelly Jones admitted: "I do feel nervous. It's a strange time in music at the minute. In that you can work actually hard on a project but it might not be the right song for that time and it goes away and then the whole project goes away.
"Young bands don't get time to develop any more. For established bands you have to come out with the best song you've ever written in a way to compete. This is what I've been doing since I was 12, I don't actually know how to do anything else."
Despite his concerns, Kelly says relations in the band have never been better and they wouldn't still be together if they weren't proud of their music.
He added to BBC Newsbeat: "The band's in a really good place, everybody in the band is happy. We're not just churning out c**p just to be around."

Stereophonics New Album Preview

Welsh wizards of rock Stereophonics have completed their new album and ClashMusic has heard an amazing preview!
Formed in the small town of Cwmaman Stereophonics started life as a covers band before singer Kelly Jones began channelling his annoyance at small town life into his own rock driven material.
footaged up by V2 the band's debut album 'Word Gets Around' marked them out as a pair with huge potential. Commercial breakthrough 'Performance And Cocktails' was followed by physical strife, as drummer Stuart Cable departed.
However the band bounced back with the album 'You Gotta Go There To Come Back' and their epic single 'Dakota'. Achieving international success, Stereophonics are one of the longest bands in the country.
Returning to the UK to work on their new album, Stereophonics are qualifying to do release the collection later this year. Details are scarce, yet ClashMusic was able to catch a glimpse of the new album currently...
Anna Meacham reports...
"Their rock ‘n’ roll ignoring to what music everyone else is making is the reason behind the Stereophonics unique brand of fun but fuming music. It’s the punchy hooks, dynamic percussion and the oh so soothing, but unsettling, voice of front man Kelly Jones which has put the band on the map, and their new album takes this aroused, upbeat vibe to a new level."
"They’ve introduced new moments of synths to the old moments of down beat rock and come out with an album fuelled with enthusiasm and individualism. It's going to be hard not to love this."

THE STORY NOEL

OASIS pulled out of headlining the Virgin Media V Festival in Chelmsford last night.

Frontman Liam Gallagher clearly peaked too early in Staffordshire on Saturday.
The 36 year old was ordered by his doctor to cancel after being diagnosed with viral laryngitis.
An Oasis spokesman said: “After a year of being on the road this is the first performance to be lost to a band member’s illness, so naturally we are all finish gutted.
“Liam is resting up and should be fine to resume the tour next Friday in Paris.”
The news that Snow Patrol would step in for the much loved Mancs did not go down well with fans.
Many of their fans would have preferred Noel, 42, to step up to the plate, possibly backed up with mates like Stereophonics pal Kelly Jones, 35, or Ocean Colour Scene’s Steve Craddock, 40.
Absolute Radio DJ Christian O’Connell, 35, who was due to interview Noel, made the views of thousands clear.
Spats
He said: “There’s been a lot of altercation around Oasis recently over the boys’ spats.
“This is only going to fuel those rumours.”
I told you last week how Liam admitted he had no idea what the future held for Oasis.
He revealed the scrapping between the siblings is so bad they no bigger travel together.
While there has been nothing officially to suggest a spat backstage in Staffs, pulling out of their V closer will do little to damp down rumours of trouble with the band.
V Festival director Bob Angus added: “The artists’ health must come first.
“But Oasis having to pull out is amply displease, especially after they had played such a galeing set at Stafford.”

The Venue guilt-free afternoon

A TRIO of narrow bridle will headline a bank holiday afternoon of live music on Sunday, August 30.
Bad celebrity come back to The Venue after a well received May debut. Fronted by Hood (from Boyz ‘n The Hood fame).

The band will accommodate an forcible set of classic pop and rock hits from Bruce Springsteen to Lynyrd Skynyrd , Bad Company to The Rolling Stones with something for all ages and all musical tastes.

An event spokesman said. “The May Bank Holiday Event attrached around 200 people and was a huge success with a great atmosphere. It really is a day out for anyone of any age who enjoys live music.”

Ex-Stereophonics drummer to write memoirs

Former Stereophonics drummer Stuart Cable has written a book about his time in the Welsh group.The autobiography, entitled 'Demons And Cocktails', promises "to reveal the true personalities" of the people Cable worked with, as well as talking about his departure from the band.Cable was sacked from the group in September 2003, and has since presented radio shows and performed as Stone Gods' drummer.

Recently Stereophonics were involved in a police chase on Sunday (September 21), after the driver of their tour bus refused orders by Canadian border patrolmen to pull over.
After a two-mile chase, guards finally managed to get the bus to pull over at 4am local time.The band were then forced off the vehicle while it was searched.Ironically, the band later discovered they were only chased in the first place because their driver had been parked illegally."What a day. We got chased by the cops for two miles - for illegal parking," Singer Kelly Jones told The Sun.Jones added that he almost made matters worse by saying he was friends with notorious Welsh drugs smuggler Howard Marks."It was aggressive border control," he explained. "One of the guards started talking about a guy who used to smuggle drugs through bands’ equipment.

Stereophonics Rewind Lyrics

It's your time
It's your day
It's never too late
To change lanes
How's your life?
How's your place?
Was it where you wanted
Your head to lay?

But wait, you can breathe
You can see what I can see
Don't waste your time
You can't make back

If you could rewind your time
Would you change your life?

Do you like you?
Do you love your wife?
Or did you pick what
You're told was right?

Dream and be
What you feel
Don't you compromise
What you wanna be

'Cause change is okay
What's the point in staying the same
Regrets, forget what's dead and gone

If you could rewind your time
Would you change your life?

If Jesus rode in on a camel today
With your cross on his shoulder
Time to take you away
Have you done all you wanted?
Are you happy and warm?
Do you miss someone special
You don't see anymore?
Have you blood on your hands?
Do you dream of white sands?
Can you sleep well at night?
Have you done all you can?
The place I was born in
Stays crooked and straight
I see innocent blue eyes
Go blind everyday

Rewind your time
Would you change your life
Today?
