Crap


In a bizarre twist of fate, after going to one of the most unique and intimate concerts I've ever been to, the 'Bloom has been taken offline due to security concerns our web host had. We're looking for a new host and I'm hoping to have the content back online within a week. We're looking through caches and saved documents, and it looks like we'll only lose recent news and some message board posts. This could also be the much-needed chance to get some better software backing up the rest of the site too.
I do have a little more music news too. Switchfoot has finally released some details about their new album. From their mailing list:
Well friends, after months of recording, we've finally given birth to our newest album, "NOTHING IS SOUND." This album was recorded all over the world while on tour in places as far as Germany, Africa, and Australia, and also places as close as our backyard. We are in the final stages of mixing what we all feel to be our strongest record yet... which is scheduled to release... (dramatic pause) in early August. We feel like proud parents, and we can't wait to introduce you to our newest creation. I'm not sure if it's a boy or a girl, but it definitely has teeth.



- Tim Foreman


Additionally, their website has been updated.
Oh, and remember that reunion of the original Further Seems Forever lineup that we mentioned a while back? Turns out it didn't go too well. Such a shame too, looking over the roster for Bamboozle, it looks like it could have been a great event. You just know that the FSF reunion was a one time thing too, so some fans must feel completely screwed now. Well, at least Chris Carabba is working with Daniel Lanois now - I'm sure that'll sound better than his recent Dashboard Confessional projects. Hey, did anyone else here hear about that instrumental Daniel Lanois album? That sounds like it could be exciting.
So yes....if you haven't figured it out yet, we'll be using this as a temporary site news/music news/random commentary page while we work on getting the site going again. Sorry for the inconvenience, but it's the best we can do on such short notice. Hey, those if you who are happy with your free hosting solutions, tell us about it, please. We really need a new host ASAP.
