About Me

Lostprophets frontman Ian Watkins and guitarist Mike Lewis grew up together in the town of Pontypridd. They began blending musical genres as members of the band Public Disturbance. Ian was a drummer at the time, but he moved to vocals when the pair first started experimenting as Lozt Prophetz. Ian and mike started with rap and hip-hop at first, then came to a style of rock that mixed together their longtime love of metal and pop. They also changed the spelling to Lostprophets and added Lee Gaze (guitar), Stuart Richardson (bass), and Mike Chiplin (drums) to the lineup.

After Lostprophets' demo was featured in Kerrang! magazine, independent label Visible Noise offered them an album deal in 2000. That year's The Fake Sound of Progress was recorded over the course of a week for roughly $4,000. Hitting the road to promote the album, the band played support slots with Linea 77, Taproot, Pitchshifter, Linkin Park, and the Deftones, and a huge show at the 2001 Reading Festival helped the fan base grow. Keyboardist Jamie Oliver joined the band , and Sony signed the band in the U.S., releasing a different version of The Fake Sound of Progress in 2001, one that had been remixed and "retooled" by famed producer Michael Barbiero. A North American tour followed.

The album's successor, 2004's Start Something, proved that all the gigging had paid off. It debuted at number five on the U.K. charts. More touring followed, including a sold-out show at the giant Cardiff International Arena and a main-stage performance at the 2004 Reading Festival. In 2005 the bandmembers were considering different producers for their third effort before deciding on Bob Rock, the man responsible for Metallica's self-titled "Black Album." Drummer Mike then left the band to spend time with his family and do other things, now in 2006, lostprophets have realesed another album called liberation transmission and are touring with Ilan rubin as drummer.

shinobi vs dragon ninja

Got it all too high Got it figured out, I wanna do whatever Laugh until september And I seem to think that you were once here with me Maybe I was wrong U were moving on And I sit and wonder Falling under Get my way or nothing will move on Everyone has gone You feel so empty, but I've got me a friend And I like it And I know u say I can't care for someone But are you that clever that you smile forever? If it summer yeah... Coz I just don't feel it Baby its a treaty Maybe you are not her And I sit and wonder, falling under Get my way or nothing will move on Everyone has gone. You feel so empty, but I've got me a friend And I like it, ooooooh! Say now, got it for all of me How do I?

last summer

The Friday sun bears down again As we drive with our friends And on these longest days we spend All the time trying to pretend That our stories could be true Wanting to be cool The setting sunset says the day is through If only we knew... And we all sit around here in our home town Listen to the waves as they all crash down And watch the fire as it slowly burns away Glowing embers fly across the sky yourHere by my side, in my summer, our last summer The world passes by in my summer, our last summer The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other I let you watch it all, the view from our last summer The view from our last summer... We trace the sun across the skyAnd we laugh till we cry Always so hard to say goodbye (good bye) And we all sit round here in our home town It's so good like this, these are times we'll miss The memories, I hope will never fade Glowing embers fly across the sky yourHere by my side, in my summer, our last summer The world passes by in my summer, our last summer The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other I let you watch it all, the view through our last summer The view from our last summer...I would stop time to stay with you I would stop time so we don't move I would stop time I would stop time I would stop time to keep youHere by my side, in my summer, our last summer The world passes by in my summer, our last summer The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other I let you watch it all, the view from our last summer
