Eleven Seven Music apparently (and not surprisingly) screwed the pooch on the last Everclear album 'Welcome to the Drama Club' and as such Art Alexakis has decided that he wants to try his luck with a better label and see if they can get it right. According to Tunelab, Art is currently in writing mode for an album that he hopes to release next summer. No word on which label will release the effort.
Not a week can not go by without a story about drug-addled Pete Doherty. Apparently the far more famous for his drug addiction than his music star has checked into the $600-per-day Clouds House rehab facility, near Salisbury, Wiltshire. This according to what a source has told People magazine. Stay tuned later in the week for news on his arrest following leaving said facility. That's if he stays true to form.
Marky Mark Chavez of Adema fame is taking a page from Crazy Town's Shifty Shellshock playbook and looking to find solo success following the downfall of the crapmetal genre that gave them their break and then left them behind when the trend died. While his former band is toiling away with a new release and singer, trying to remain relevant in the age of emo, Chavez is plotting his comeback with a new solo album that will be released sometime early next year by Thru The Roof Records.
Speaking of stars that are well past their fifteen minutes of fame. It looks Doritos couldn't find a fitting current star to offer up as their new pitchperson so they have signed up Missy Elliot. Contact Music reports that Missy will be "the new face" of the cheesy chips company. On the bright side, at least she does appear to use the product she is endorsing and it gives her something to do.
