LOSTPROPHETS NEW SINGLE "BRING 'EM DOWN" NOW AVAILABLE ON iTUNES; TRACK APPEARS ON NEW LP WEAPONS OUT JUNE 19 ON FEARLESS RECORDS; CATCH THEM ON VANS WARPED TOUR THIS SUMMER



Fearless Records will release Weapons throughout North America on June 19th. The album was recorded in North Hollywood, CA at NRG Studios with producer Ken Andrews (A Perfect Circle, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club).

UK Praise for Weapons:

"…Weapons showcases a band every bit as hungry as the one that blasted out of their Pontypridd rehearsal room a decade ago."- Kerrang!

Because of its compact form and committed performances, Weapons is a release that burns brightly. Its cause is aided by the fact that Lostprophets are a quite fabulous band in motion, one equipped with not just power but also nuance."- BBC Music

“another solid collection of anthems for their arsenal.”- Big Cheese

"Weapons does indeed mark a new beginning for Lostprophets. Where in the past they specialised in instant hits, now they're aiming for something larger and more long-lasting."- Rock Sound

Formed in Pontypridd, South Wales, the Welsh rock band have made their mark on both sides of the Atlantic with their blend of strong melodic choruses and aggressively edged rock. Through four previous albums - 2000's fakesoundofprogress, 2004's Start Something, 2006's Liberation Transmission, and 2010'sThe Betrayed - the band has grown, both in songwriting and success, stacking up a dozen or so top 40 singles and selling over 2 million albums worldwide.  Recipients of Kerrang! Magazine's 2010's Classic Songwriters Award, Lostprophets have become one of the U.K.'s biggest rock bands, gracing countless magazine covers and headlining stages at Reading/Leeds and Download Festivals.
