All Time Low


In 2003 Alex Gaskarth, Jack Barakat, Zack Merrick and Rian Dawson joined to form All Time Low, a band from Baltimore that plays pop/punk.

With 3 albums released until now, All Time Low became successful band in Brazil when they recorded a song for the movie Jennifer's Body (Garota Infernal, in Brazil).

It all starts when in 2004, when the band signed a contract with Esmerald Moon Records and recorded an EP. One year after, came the first album: The Party Scene.

They still recorded another EP in 2006 with Hopeless Records, and another CD, the most important one in their career, So Wrong, It’s Right.

The last album, Nothing Personal, was released last year.

This band has played with bands I already talked about, like The Academy Is…, There For Tomorrow and Cute Is What We Aim For and with other great bands, like We The Kings, Boys Like Girls, Gym Class Heroes, Plain White T’s, Cobra Starship and Forever the Sickest Kids.

Cinema Bizarre


Another band that had a strange, quiet and suprised end.


Cinema Bizarre were form 2005 by five boys from Germany that played glam rock in english, they had fans around the world inclued in Brazil, but were never known by the midia.


It's difficult when some band isn't a accept in the midia because of their music and most important because of their look , kind androgen.


But this wasn't the fact that make the band ends, cause acctually they were all welcome in Europe, even with the critics.


The problems began in 2007, when Luminor, who played keybord, left the band saying that he was with health problems, and Romeo a friend of the band enter to replace him, in 2008 Luminor officially left the band. Some people says that had a conflict among the members, but he states that his health problems were worst then he thought.


In 2010 the band posted a letter in their twitter and facebook saying that the band would stop for a while, but it acctualy seems that this was the end of the band forever.


With the end of Cinema Bizarre Romeo and Yu enterd in another band and Strify and Shin wants to stay in the music world too. We don't have notices about Kiro and not even Luminor.


Even with the end of the band, if you want to check out their video clips here it is some musics: Love Songs (They Kill Me) and Forever or Never.

Apollo 3


This is a really new band, in all aspects!


It all starts in Cologne, a really important city in Germany, where three boys met each other and decided to form a band, but the fact is that they weren't teenengers by the age of fifteen , 'cause acctualy, now the older have only thirteen years old, so cute!


Then, let me introduce you these boys: Marvin (25/08/1996), Henry (25/06/1997) and Dario (05/01/1997) this is Apollo 3!


They turned to be famous in Germany when their music "Superhelden" was part of the soundtrack of the film "Vorstadtkrokodile". Besides "Superhelden" they had already another single "Startschuss", and two albuns.


In 2010 they debut their first film "Teufelskicker" where they plays the main characters.


Because of the age that they start making music, music style and country, sometimes they are compared with Devilish (now, Tokio Hotel) that had similar begin and now it's a famous rock band, with fans all over the world, the dream of every band, and a good example for Apollo 3 boys to see that doesn't matter where you came from, you can always get your dream if you want and belive it.
