One-Off USA Show Announced!

What a great way to draw a close to 2009! Zebrahead are set to play a one-off show at Anaheim's House Of Blues, on December 27th with MC Lars! This is the first time in a while that the band has played a home show, so I'd encourage any fans from the surrounding area to check it out. You can buy tickets online direct from the venue here. Expect some Christmas songs to wind their way into the setlist.

NHK TV Performance!

While touring in Japan, Zebrahead also got the chance to pop into NHK TV to perform some songs to promote the new album. The performance was aired today in Japan, and while no footage is currently available online, you can check out a still from the show below:

Monday 16 November 2009

Featured on AP again & Debut Spot!


That's like as popular as Miley Cyrus in America! BTTW and Phoenix were #9. It's great that they get so much love over there. I wonder how it'd be if Disney owned them like Miley...

AP.net also finally posted more info about ZH. Hopefully people will buy the album then ZH can see how much the US likes them and humors us with a tour...maybe.

Tuesday 10 November 2009

BUY THE ALBUM NOW!


Want to get Panty Raid early? If you don't tell Japan, you can buy the album NOW! It won't be shipped for awhile...but again, don't tell Japan. She mustn't be hurt! Not again...

There are 3 sweet deals for you! 1 CD will cost you $10 and you'll get it early! But it's a better deal to buy 2 CDs! And what's better than having 2? That's right, 3 CDs! Having an extra copy to convert a friend is great! It's like being mormon...but you know, fun!

Thursday 5 November 2009

New Myspace!

With the new album out/on it's way, it was high time that they updated their myspace! With plenty of extras that hopefully you'll care about! Have some Zebrahead banners you can post places, links to the iTunes store (where Broadcast to the World and Phoenix are back on the iTune catalog) and an exclusive wallpaper for the upcoming album! It's also just a great way to keep up to date on Zebrahead news. Even a banner for Postcards From Hell! (This site) So go check out the new Myspace, leave a comment, grab the banners, do something!



Speaking of this new album, if you haven't already bought it you can buy it from HMV. There are also 45 second clips of every song for you to preview in case you aren't completely convinced that Zebrahead can make a quality cover album.

Happy Panty Raid Day!

Hear 'Girlfriend' In Full On The New Official Site

Zebrahead's Official Site has had a bit of a makeover to match the forthcoming 'Panty Raid' covers album artwork! Ben has written a short update detailing the new theme:
Hey Guys and Gals. Hope you guys like the new layout of the site. Easy to see it reflects the art on the "Panty Raid" covers album. Seeing some underwear?..and they are girls underwear! This is because it is a covers album of all female fronted songs. Hope you will think it is as fun as we have! Already writing songs for a new album and stoked. What a great bonus this covers album is.....at a time when there is normally nothing going on ....we throw a curve ball and suprise you with some FUN!

MFZB 4 LIFE
But probably more exciting for you is that is you head on over to the Audio Page of the site you can listen to the first single 'Girlfriend' in full! Let us know what you think!

EDIT: 'Girlfriend' can now also be heard on the band's Official MySpace as well!

Two Panty Raid Music Videos Shot!

Zebrahead have spent the past two days shooting not one but two music videos for their upcoming 'Panty Raid' album. The first single and music video to be lifted from the album is 'Girlfriend' and as the pictures would suggest, it seems to be a parody of the original Avril Lavigne video. The last two pictures seem to be for the second music video which as of yet has not had the track confirmed, but stay tuned for more details! You can check out some of the pictures Ed has uploaded from the shoots below:





Area4 Festival Video

You may recall us blogging about Zebrahead's Area4 Festival performance being broadcast on German TV not too long ago. Well luckily a fellow fan has recorded the footage so everyone is able to see the guys rocking out on stage. You can see the 20 minutes video (in two parts) that was broadcast on WDR (Rockpalast) below:

Kerrang! Review & Ali's First Gig!

The latest issue of Kerrang! Magazine has a short Sonisphere review in which the guys were awarded an awesome score of KKKK (4/5), Ali also gets reminiscent and tells the readers about his very first gig! Check out the scans below!


MY FIRST GIG
GUNS N'ROSES / SKID ROW
Los Angeles Forum 1990
"Axl was a complete asshole - he made us wait a really long time before he would come out. Sebastian Back was also very cocky and arrogant. I mean they were just these huge rockstars being big dickheads! Despite that, I wound up really enjoying the show. It was full of wasted people and was just total spectacle from start to finish, which is pretty awesome to witness. I'm also pleased that I got to see Guns N'Roses before Axl Rose lost his mind completely"
-Ali Tabatabaee, Zebrahead
Thanks to MFZB.com's Scott and Matias for the scans!

Panty Raid!

Zebrahead's forthcoming covers album has officially been named as 'Panty Raid'! Hmmm we have a feeling this title offers a big hint on what kind of songs will be featured (think about it!). Full tracklisting and other details should be announced soon. In the mean time check out the official announcement below, taken from the band's MySpace blog:
"Yes..the news section has been super super calm lately...that is about to change....big things coming up in the world of zebrahead....FIRST off...a new album of covers....(for those confused...covers are when you play other peoples songs...you would be suprised on how many people are confused by that!)....lots of them....This album will be titled PANTY RAID!

Hockey Anyone?

So readers of this blog may already be aware that when not caught up with Zebrahead, Matty tends to enjoy playing baseball, well as it turns out his sporting activities don't just stop there. Matty enjoys playing a bit of Hockey on the side as well! Ben mentions a short story in a new MySpace blog:
So I forgot to post this a couple weeks ago....Matty plays Hockey at a League where he lives...and they have games where anyone can come in and play....a couple weeks ago Melvin from NOFX walked in to play...and ends up on the opposing team to Matty....and YES Melvin scored on Matty...end of story.....thought it was funny...apparently Melvin is really good...or does matty just suck at playing GOALIE???

Cover Of The Month: Nice Price - Mental Health

It's a new year... so here's a new feature for PFH. Starting from now, on the last day of every month (assuming I remember) PFH will bring you our new feature 'Cover Of The Month'. Essentially we'll search the high and lows of YouTube for a Zebrahead cover that we feel earns the title (one way or another) of 'Cover Of The Month'.

January's 'winner' comes from Italian band Nice Price who did an acoustic cover of Mental Health. You can check it out below!


Bravo! Think you (or your band) can do a better Zebrahead cover? Link us and maybe you'll be featured next month!

Geki Rock Live Report

Japanese based Geki Rock have posted a 'Live Report' summing up the Nov 28th show on the recent Zebrahead/illScarlett Japanese tour.



You can check it out in full, including the setlist and more pictures, here and if you want a rough translation of the page then click here.

Cover Album In The Works...

Since completing their gigantic UK/European/Japanese tour things have quietened down considerably in the land of Zebrahead, however fear not! Everyone will be pleased to know that the guys are currently hard finishing up a Cover Song album!

As posted by Ben recently in a ReverbNation e-mail, he states that the guys "have been really busy.............tat tat ta da............working on a covers record...yes a covers record.....I will unfold more details soon...but it is almost done!!!.......we are excited...."

PFH can let you know the covers album has a particular theme but we'll leave that for an official announcement, as it really is worth the wait! We are possibly looking at a March/April release for this one but we'll bring you all the details as soon as they are confirmed!

More Pre-Zebrahead Malarky!

Chris DiCarlo, the former singer for late 90s La Habra based band 3-Ply has set up a MySpace music profile for the band, which I'm pretty sure some people may want to check out! 'Why?' I hear you ask. Well, before becoming the Zebrahead bassist we all know and love, our very own Ben Osmundson played bass in the aforementioned band (as well as occassionally singing!).

Head on over the 3-Ply MySpace Profile and you can listen to some of the old songs (check out LMD in particular) as well as see a few pictures of album/vinyl covers and so forth. Well who'd have thought it eh? Keep an eye on the profile as it's sure to grow once Chris digs out more stuff, and if you're still needing a pre-Zebrahead fix, then head on over to listen to Matty's old band Jank 1000.

Well I look forward to Ben sending me a threatening e-mail. Enjoy!

Move Over Charlie Brown...

If you've been wondering the reason why Ben has been taking numerous pictures around the world with a Snoopy stuffed toy (and haven't we all?), then you should thank Zebrahead German Support who decided to get to the bottom of the matter once and for all...

Click on the image below to read the full 'interview'.

Zebrahead On Guitar Hero: World Tour!... Kinda

While this is by no means an official additional of Zebrahead to the Guitar Hero franchise (though we all know it's long overdue), thanks to one of the awesome new features in Guitar Hero: World Tour, known as GH Tunes, you can now play along to a Zebrahead song! GH Tunes essentially lets users create their own songs for others to also download for free, and a very clever guy who goes by the name of "The Startled" has created Zebrahead's "Wake Me Up" which you can download for free.

If you have a copy of the game for the Nintendo Wii platform, then head on over to GH Tunes and you'll find the tune slowly clibming it's way up the Top 20 All Time Rated tunes!

Or if you simply want to hear what it's like then head on over to the GH Tunes website where you can stream it in your browser! Good job indeed! Can anyone else do better? Let us know!

UK Based Online Merch Stall

Taking a leaf out of New Found Glory's book, Zebrahead have set up a UK based merch site, allowing you to buy previous shirts and other merch from past tours at reduced prices! Click here to check it out.

You can read the following statement from the band below:

"We now have merch for sale at reduced prices at
www.zebrahead.bigcartel.com/products

prices start at £5

instead of having the shirts from the last tour of Europe and the UK sit and wait tell the next tour...we decided to put it up for people to buy at reduced cheap prices....After tours we will start putting things up there for you...it is shipped from the UK so should be cheap for our friends over the pond.......but when it runs out .....it runs out....this is only what remains!!!!!

Hope this makes you happy in pants!!!!go check it out
