Lostprophets - Weapons

The new album, 'Weapons', was produced by Ken Andrews, whose previous credits include work with A Perfect Circle and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

Lostprophets is a band whose members have known each other since their school days in Pontypridd, South Wales, a group that were friends long before they became band mates and colleagues. Through their four previous albums - 2000's 'fakesoundofprogress', 2004's 'Start Something', 2006's 'Liberation Transmission' and 2010's 'The 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.

They have become one of the UK's biggest rock bands without compromise or flirting with musical fashions, instead choosing to stick with what they believe in and constantly striving to do better, more creatively challenging things. Now this includes a long-awaited return to America, both on the road and on record.
