It's funny how some of the greatest bands out there often exist in the darkness, away from the spotlight. I definately think Fightstar is one of the raddest bands of the past years. Their new album Be Human is pure gold, and I still can't wrap my head around how perfect it is.
It sucks because due to a lack of distribution I am probably never going to get my hands on a physical copy of any of their more recent work, but know that if I ever do I'll be the happiest man on earth and will leave everything unwrapped haha.
So yeah, today you should go out of your way and try to discover music that exists far off the main lands. Go and dig as deep as you can because some of the best music comes from the underground.
Oh, and if you live in the UK go to HMV and pick up the new Fightstar record.
and now is time to fetch me some Nine inch nails tickets for the Toronto show. Sooooo stoked =)
Young and alone, as always.

Gnahh gnah gnnnaahhhhh.
Here I am, shopping for the cheapest bmx online. Keeping it real, as always.
I can't wait for the new Deftones record, although I am still very sad that Chi is still in a coma.
It's weird because I miss him so much even though we've never met.
The deftones changed my life in so many ways, and it breaks my heart to see them in such a sad situation.
Come on Chi, we haven't forgotten about you.
You make the world a better place and your friends and family need you.
And now I'm off to watch the first Jackass movie.
Amen.
-Pierrot la lune.

Itching life away part one.
I officially got my first tattoo three days ago, and god knows how itchy my skin is right now. Tattoos are still a weird thing for me. As much as I couldn't care less about the colour and/or shape of my skin when I was born, it's weird to think that whatever part of my body I decide to get tattooed will never look the same compared to the pictures my parents have taken of me over the years.
So yeah, William HB deffinaly lived up to my expectations and his reputation. I took it all in like a champ in an awful five hour session. Longest day of my life.
It's funny how, in momments of hazardous pain, pop music can make everything go by a lot faster.
Here's a list of a few records I've been jamming a lot recently;
Metro station - Metro station (meh, I knowwww)
Lights - Lights EP
A day to remember - Homesick
For the fallen dreams - Changes (soooooo stoked for the next record)
Pretty eclectic eh.
Meh.
Stay young and alone

Sweet dreams are made of these...
Very, very, very nice!
So, last night I woke up all sweaty and stuff with a song in my head. Turned on the lights, grabbed a guitar, and started to write.
I can't believe how fast some songs can come to fruition while others take FOREVER to make.
The progress chart for the album is getting quite lengthy, and that's a really really really good thing in my books.
I think there's only something like 2 weeks of school left for Myles. I'm so happy to finally get back to the studio and see the album come to life.
Alright, time to go hit the Nintendo.
Stay young & alone.

Slave to the corporates.
Suupppp.
So I'm still knees deep into the Modern Ghost writing sessions. This new album is shaping up to be quite a ride, and most definately the best material I've ever written in my life.
It'll be hard to pick the tracks that are gonna make it on the actual record. I'm in love with everything I've been coming up with thus far, and at the rate things are going I'll have a lot more than expected.
Sooooo, I recently developped a full-fledged addiction to 7up. No jokes. I don't know what's gotten into me, but I am liking this lemon-flavored thingy.
So whoever owns 7up, make sure you hook me up with a lifetime supply of those ... please.
Alright, enough with the rambling. Time to watch a movie or two.
Currently listening to;
Closure in moscow - The penance and the patience.

Plague of a thousand deceptions.
Alright, so as always everything I lay my hands on manages to fall apart. Literally.
But I'm back from the states, and it feels good (sort of) to be home.
Modern Ghost is back to the studio with a new, fully developped, awesome extended line-up.
Life over here is good, but I sincerely couldn't wait to get my groove on and take the fuck off.
So yeah, still alive - and retarded.
Leave some love. xxx.
-The boy next door.

Promises, promises, promises.
So I haven't blogged in years (5 days, really). A lot of you (probably just one) have been wondering where in the world is Pierre - Well, to tell you the truth I was here all along, BUT when a computer decides to break down and fall apart AND you don't have any computer skills whatsoever what do you do really?
I'll tell you what I did.
I went to Future shop and bought a ridiculous amount of movies - Including my oh so favorite, The Dark Knight - and watched them all whilst being buried alive in a boatload of shitty blankets.
That's what I did folks. Like a real man, I ran away and retrieved until my mom finally announced me that the good ol' comp was up and running again. =)
So that's that.
----------------
So I know for fact that a lot of people out there know me from my band, and that's mucho cool. I also know and remember that a long time ago (last week) before my computer imploded, I promised you something.
So there it is. I am super duper sorry for being late and for having you wait a little longer.
Know that if you are reading this right now, you have in your hands something special and I'm super stoked to finally share with the world what we've all been working so hard for.
So this is what the new layout will look like.

Our good friend Alex over at Doppelganger designs really did a phenomenal job.
A lot of you are probably wondering what is the city for ...but that answer will come later when the album comes out ;)
So that's about it for tonight.
I really wanna hear your thoughts on the layout so please head over to www.myspace.com/modernghost and let me know what you think.
Until the next time,
-the boy next door.
