"So here is the rumor on the streets... Slater is going to play drums for the TERMINATOUR, and we just picked up the keyboard player / synth legend from Still Remains!  His name is Ben, but you can call him REX KRUEGER!!! Be sure that you are at these shows, your not going to want to miss this action!!!!!!! P.S., don't worry; Bird is still a part of BBABH!!!"

There are lots of sweet bands, including us! Expect smoke, lasers, fanny packs, hot chicks, teased hair and the kinds of things you'll be embarrassed to remember the morning after. We wrote killer songs about the art of getting down, dangerous females, school being out and other cool stuff so we'll be whipping out new material from our upcoming Century Media debut, Pedal to the Metal, throughout the tour. We hope to see all y'all at our shows. Don't be shy to come talk to us cuz we love all our fans and we care about what you have to say."

Let me tell you, this is and will always be the greatest record of all time! Well, except for maybe Rick Astley's Whenever You Need Somebody, but it sure comes close! Anyway, I hope you guys make sure to pick up some Zubaz, Jordache, and LA Gears so you're completely ready for our global takeover!

"The new album is now going to be called Pedal To The Metal and will blowout any speakers you play it from. Every song will get you hooked. All of the shreds hit harder and louder. The keyboard we used was actually bought directly from Eddie Van Halen (he was down on his luck and didn't want to just TAKE our money). I hope you are all as stoked as we are. I swear if you guys don't like it, I will eat my zebra spandex. We will have a new song up for you guys as soon as we can. So until then, scope out our summer tour dates and make sure to come out and say what's up."

      <title>Blessed By A Broken Heart: : Century Media Records Welcomes BLESSED BY A BROKEN HEART Into Its Worldwide Family</title>
      <description>Century Media is proud to sign BLESSED BY A BROKEN HEART, self-proclaimed ?osuperheroes destined to save the world from nuclear annihilation with the power of metal.??
 
BBABH hails from Montreal, Canada and released one album, All?Ts Fair In Love And War, on Blood &amp; Ink Records in 2004. They did a few tours of North America with The Devil Wears Prada and A Day to Remember and played to sold-out crowds in the UK with Enter Shakari. Upon returning home, they found themselves with offers from record labels shooting out of their collective arses. The Bird (drums) states: ?oWe have been searching for the right record label to release our next record for quite some now, and this is a match made in heaven. The force is strong with Century Media. I mean, they signed us without a singer, so they are obviously just as crazy as we are. 
 
?oWe are also proud to announce that we have finally found a new singer. His name is Tony Gambino, and yeah, his great-uncle was Carlo Gambino (Google him), so don?Tt mess with us. Tony can do back-flips and breakdance better then Turbo in Electric Boogaloo. We?Tre psyched to have him on board.??
