Okay, first off, I’d have to clear to way and level the playing field, otherwise I might get taken out by your critics for publishing this here. I first heard about Meg and Dia from a friend of mine who normally hooks me up with interesting new music to listen to. Now my top bands at the moment include Incubus, Billy Talent, Brand New, Alkaline Trio and Rise Against and my music-giving friend has an even more alternative taste. So when he suggested I give Meg and Dia a listen, I thought okay maybe it’s just something indie (whatever that is anyway these days) with a little softer side since it has chick vocals.
My conclusion to his promotion of M&D and my initial thoughts is that M&D pleasantly suprised me and I listen to it every now and again when my girlfriend is around - that softer side thing again.
Meg (21) and Dia (19) Frampton are two sisters and they’re the founders of the band. They started out with just an acoustic guitar, but has since grown into a full 4-piece band (that is what success does to you). Their music can be described as guitar-driven with poppy, but slightly unique, chick vocals. So yes, they are poppy, but I can be a man and face up to listening to them sometimes.
The interesting thing about M&D however is the fact that they appeal to the more alternative crowd and I don’t if that’s just because they are the prettiest girls in the alternative scene or whether the alternative peeps just enjoy their music. M&D are signed to a major label, but they tour with smaller, but more well-known punk bands, which means that maybe the next time you get to see your favourite band, M&D will be there too.

This is a post for all the fans of the video game, Tekken. Found this on Pixelbomb and thought we’d share a bit of the (slightly) NFSW fun with you guys.
So you can have a look at the rest of the pics over here.

We published a pic and a story a while ago about Scarlett Johannsen being a bit distracting. This time it’s her boobs making the headlines (in a good way). Look at this old fart in the picture…Down boy - Sit UBU sit!

We know we featured the lovely Sophia Bush the other day along with the One Tree Hill crew, but we decided that we hadn’t had enough of this beautiful girl yet… This time we got some great (and fun) photos of her, which she did for Entertainment Weekly recently.
This 24-year-old actress is really on the top in Hollywood at the moment and although we don’t think she’ll be the most classic Hollywood beauty of the century, we still thinks she’s a pretty good actress and she’s got the looks to boot! Except from her role as Brooke Davis, in One Tree Hill, she’s only had a few notable appearances in movies until now. She was however seen in John Tucker must die and Stay Alive, this year, which again, won’t be the two best movies of 2006, but at least it’s not as bad as Poseidon…

And that’s why leading men’s magazine, Maxim, have decided to cash in on the girls from OTH.
As big fans of the TV series, there is just no way that we can pass up the opportunity to talk about the uber-sexy, young little vixens on the OTH set. You don’t even have to follow or like the story to be ever-so-slightly intrigued by these pretty ladies.
Sophia Bush (yes that is the pretty one in the middle on the cover), has just started making a name for herself in Hollywood and we’re sure that she’ll make it far with those cute, girly looks and awesome curves… We wouldn’t mind playing her on / off boyfriend in the story either, because he has gotten “lucky” with her in the past!
Here’s the other scans of the whole interview as featured in Maxim’s November edition:
