Stereophonics formed in 1992 and was originally known as “Tragic Love Company,” taking one word from each member’s favourite band (The Tragically Hip, Mother Love Bone, and Bad Company).
The band first consisted of Kelly Jones (vocals/guitar and songwriter), Richard Jones (bass), and Stuart Cable (drums). Cable was fired by the other two members of the band in September 2003, and the band replaced him on the road with the former drummer for The Black Crowes, Steve Gorman.
After a decade’s worth of studio albums (5 number 1’s) the band scored its first number 1 single with Dakota, the first single of their fifth album Language. Sex. Violence. Other?. The recording of this album demanded the inclusion of a new drummer, Argentinian-Venezuelan Javier Weyler, formerly of Vitriol I.D.
Pull the Pin is the sixth studio album by Stereophonics, which was released in the UK on 15 October 2007. A Stereophonics newsletter released the “Pull the Pin” album artwork to suscribers. The cover was also shown to MySpace users that had added the band in a bulletin.
The taster track “Bank Holiday Monday” had its world premier on Radio 1’s Chris Moyles Show on Tuesday 1 May 2007 and was made available for digital download on Monday 28 May 2007 from online retailers.
The band’s newsletter on 24 July 2007 confirmed details and artwork of the first ‘proper’ single to be released from the album. “It Means Nothing” was released in the UK on 24 September 2007.

I think their best album is "Live From Dakota." Being a new fan you get a taste of a lot of their hits and their awesome live sound. Since I don't live in Europe this is the only way I can hear them live...well that and YouTube. I didn't know about them when they were touring America...so sadly I missed out.

Lonelyness...show your misery elsewhere. If you have a crappy life, do something about it. Do not dump it over Mr Jones.
