Los ganadores de los Kerrang Awards 2011 caminan por la alfombra negra del rock.
Le elite del hard rock de apoderaron de The bewery en Londres anoche para los Kerrang Awards patrocinados por la bebida energética Relentless. Cientos de fans británicos se reunieron a las afueras del recinto para ver a sus ídolos del rock pasar la alfombra roja ayer, que en nombre de rock, fue teñida de negro.

El premio a Mejor novato internacional fue ganado por el joven quinteto de California, BVB. Su cantante, Andy Six, cuyo dramático loo parece estar inspirado en Kiss, dice: "Este premio significa más para nosotros que cualquier otro premio que hayamos ganado antes, especialmente porque es internacional."
Six fue positivo sobre el futuro de su banda: "Tu no puedes tener más que confianza. En cualquier línea de trabajo la gente tiene miedo de admitir la dominación. Ellos no quieren ser grandes, quieren ser buenos. Nosotros queremos convertirnos en la banda más grande del mundo y nada nos detendrá."

Los Angeles’ newest rock sensations, the Black Veil Brides, continue their musical takeover with their major label debut, 'Set The World On Fire' on June 13th, and the band have now confirmed a UK tour for October 2011.
The US rockers will hit the UK this October for ten UK dates.
The band's new album 'Set The World On Fire' is the follow-up to their chart-topping debut album released in 2010. 'We Stitch These Wounds' came in at #36 on the Billboard Top 200 and #1 on the Billboard Independent chart.
"Everything is bigger - more songs, more vocals, more melodies. And it all came naturally; it's not an attempt to try to outdo our first record, but we wanted to show how we had naturally grown as a band and as songwriters. This is my favorite record I've ever made -- and most importantly, the best album anybody's ever made" proclaims front man and founder Andy Biersack.

Our first day at Rock Am Ring at Nurburgring racetrack was intense. With an attendance of 80,000 plus, it was literally like looking out into a sea of people. Our sound on stage that day was a little left to be desired and we couldn’t hear ourselves, but of course that didn’t phase us, and we played our hearts out in the blazing German sun to our Army.
After our set, we retired back to our dressing room to join our comrades in Asking Alexandria and All That Remains and engaged in the usual backstage shenanigans. Drinks flowed and good conversations were had. Adam Dutkiewicz of Killswitch Engage was also hanging around, as he was there with his other band Times of Grace. He’s a funny dude. As the sun set, I wandered out and got lost in the multitude to take some blurry night time photos of the crowds:
Sunday at Rock Im Park in Nuremberg was especially fun for me because of where the festival was located: the Zeppelinfeld where all of Hitler’s famous speeches and rallies were held from 1933 to 1938. Being the history nut that I am, it was intriguing to be standing where the fervor one of the World’s most changing events unfurled. It was also magical for me to see so many people gather for something so positive and peaceful where so many had once gathered for something so negative and hateful. After our set, Ashley and I were allowed to get rather close to the tribune platform where Hitler spoke, and snapped some pictures.
I swear I’m not seig-heiling in that last photo lol.
The Zeppelinfeld as it looked in the 1930’s during a rally:

Ashley and I then met with some fans and found our way to the main stage to catch Social Distortion’s set. God damn they are great live.
I then wandered back to our dressing room and discovered the artist lounge nearby where everyone was chatting it up with mojitos. I spotted Taylor Momsen sitting with her band Pretty Reckless and went over to say hello to them. More drinks flowed and I had some great conversation with the band, all super nice peeps. We’ll be seeing them again at Download this weekend.
All in all I had a blast in Germany and can’t wait to do it again. Now to go somewhere I have never been before: Copenhagen, Denmark, where we have a sold out headliner show awaiting us…
Stay tuned!
