Canadian alt. rock band, Billy Talent, was founded in 1993 as Pezz before changing their name in 1999. Their debut album garnered critical acclaim and won two Juno Awards for Best Album of the Year and Best Band of the Year. Since then, they have achieved multiple Platinum certifications in Canada and have expanded their success overseas.

The band's founding members include Ben Kowalewicz on vocals, Ian D'Sa on guitar, and Jon Gallant on bass. In 2016, Jordan Hastings from Alexisonfire joined as a drummer while Loel Campbell also joined later during the Crisis of Faith tour due to Hastings' commitments with his own band. Although original drummer Aaron Solowoniuk is currently on hiatus due to health issues, he remains active with the band.

Billy Talent's unique sound and energetic performances have captivated audiences worldwide. With their continued success and dedication to their craft, they are sure to leave a lasting impact on the music industry.

Atlantic is a renowned US record label that was founded in 1947 by Ahmet Ertegun, Herb Abramson, and Miriam Abramson. Over the years, it has grown into one of the leading companies in the music industry, known for its commitment to artistry and quality. In 1967, Atlantic was purchased by Warner Bros. film studio and operated alongside ATCO Records as separate entities. The label continued to expand its influence when it acquired Elektra in 1970, forming the Warner-Elektra-Atlantic alliance.
Today, Atlantic remains a part of the Warner Music Group and forms the Atlantic Music Group along with Elektra, Rhino Records (2), Lava, and EastWest Records America. The label's iconic Saul Bass designed W logo was introduced in 1975. With a rich history spanning decades and an impressive roster of artists, Atlantic continues to be a powerhouse in the music industry.
Please note that some releases may have different catalog numbers or codes on their sleeves or labels which are not part of the official catalog number. Additionally, early releases had yellow labels until January 1956 when they switched to red labels. French singles and EPs also have distinct catalog number patterns based on genre.

Billy Idol releases a new EP, The Roadside - his first new release in nearly seven years via Dark Horse Records. Produced by Butch Walker (Green Day, Weezer) and featuring Idol’s longtime lead guitarist and co-writer Steve Stevens, The Roadside was conceived, recorded, and mixed almost entirely under the shadow of the pandemic. The lead single Bitter Taste, features some of Idol’s most introspective and confessional lyrics ever, as he confronts death, rebirth, and his personal growth in the thirty-one years since his near-fatal 1990 motorcycle accident. “I think everyone has been feeling more reflective (during the pandemic). So, it seemed quite logical and natural to write something about my motorcycle accident,” Idol explains. “Certainly, the motorcycle accident was the catharsis, the wake-up moment. A little bit of me got left on that roadside. But it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing in the end; it was a wake-up call. Maybe on that roadside I left behind the irreverent youthful Billy and opened the door for a more attentive father and a more sensitive musician.”
