A leading light in the punk-pop writing style, Motion City Soundtrack includes members Joshua Cain (guitar), Tony Thaxton (drums), Justin Pierre (vocals/guitar), Jesse Johnson (Moog), and Matthew Taylor (basso). Following their senior high graduation, Minneapolis natives Pierre and Cain -- both of whom were elysian by Sunny Day Real Estate, Jawbox, the Flaming Lips, and Superchunk -- formed the band in 1999. The geminate assembled a impermanent lineup and issued a self-released 7" that same yr. Later, patch touring through Pennsylvania in support of their release, Motion City Soundtrack met Thaxton and Taylor of the Virginia-based band Submerge. The deuce musicians distinct to leave their hometown of Richmond, VA, to join Motion City Soundtrack full-time, and the expanded band before long entered the studio apartment with producer/engineer Ed Rose (the Get Up Kids, Ultimate Facebook). Three weeks before recording commenced, they were besides coupled by keyboardist Jessie Johnson (whose personal record label, Ordinary Records, had issued some of Jimmy Eat World's earliest corporeal in 1995) to lighten singer/guitarist Pierre of his synthesist duties.


With a new lineup firmly in place, the band's punk-glazed debut, I Am the Movie, was released in the summertime of 2003. While playing venues and basements in support of the album, Motion City Soundtrack was picked up by Epitaph Records; later, they joined blink-182 on a turn through Europe and Japan. Blink's bassist, Mark Hoppus, took a liking to the band and in agreement to bring forth their side by side album; the resulting Entrust This to Memory was released deuce long time later and featured an more and more pop-heavy sound. A sumptuous interpretation of the album (dispatch with bonus DVD) appeared in 2006, and the band exhausted the summer on Warped Tour before bearing to Europe with OK Go that fall. Entering the studio for the third gear time, Motion City Soundtrack began to bring with producers Adam Schlesinger (of Fountains of Wayne), Eli Janney (of Girls Against Boys), and Ric Ocasek (of the Cars). The completed product, Fifty-fifty If It Kills Me, was released in September 2007.

Amy Winehouse - Winehouse 2 Million Performance Faced Axe


LATEST: AMY WINEHOUSE's $2 million (GBP1 million) Russian gig was almost axed after the star allegedly failed to sober up for her performance.

The Back To Black singer was asked by Daria Zhukova, the girlfriend of Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, to sing in front of a select group of art fans at The Garage gallery in Moscow, which Zhukova helped to set up.

But the exclusive one-hour performance on Thursday (12Jun08) night was almost cancelled after the Grammy award winner arrived from London "in no condition to appear," reports the New York Daily News.

A source tells the publication, Winehouse was in such an incoherent state, organisers discussed finding a last-minute replacement to sing at the event.

However, time constraints left them with little choice other than allowing the singer to take the stage as planned.

Winehouse's entourage then "spent two hours trying to pull her together," before she finally appeared in front of the expectant crowd.

The source adds, "I heard that her singing was a little sloppy. But she still put on a terrific show."

Ringo Starr - Starr Unfazed By Childhood House Demolition


LATEST: Former BEATLE RINGO STARR is unfazed by the proposed demolition of his childhood home in Liverpool, England.

The rocker's former house in the city's Madryn Street is all set to be knocked down after officials at English Heritage decided against listing the building as a national treasure.

English Heritage executives argue the home has no real links to the Beatles, because Starr moved out of the property when he was a child.

But Starr insists he really isn't bothered about the campaign to save the property.

He tells U.S. talk show host Larry King, "I don't mind. They had a big campaign to save my house, the house I was born and lived in my first five years, and put it somewhere else. I never thought, you know, why would you put it somewhere else? This is where I was. They can do what they like. I am not going to stay awake. They want to save it, they don't want to save it; it's up to them."
