If I had never heard Lostprophets, I would never have listened to the music that’s on my iPod now.
If I had never seen Ian Watkins, one of my walls would not be covered with pictures of him.
If Lee Gaze had never wrote that guitar solo in ‘4 AM Forever’ I would never have picked up a guitar.
If Rooftops was never written, I would have never be able to scream the lyrics in my living room.
If Luke ‘Jocko’ Johnson had not made those video blogs, I would never have been entertained as much as I do when I watch them (Did that make sense?)
If Jamie Oliver worked in a post office, I would never have created the ‘inside joke’ with me and my friend.
If The Betrayed had taken longer, I may have found a different favourite band.
If Ian Watkins wasn’t as outspoken as he is, I would never have been able to get the confidence to do the same.
If Lostprophets did not exist…My life would’ve been completely different.
Before I had heard of Lostprophets, I had gone to a Kelly Clarkson concert, and a McFly concert (The Highlight of the evening? I saw Brian May :)). I was ‘in love’ with Chris Brown, and my favourite singer was…some lady. But then I heard Rooftops, which is how most people discovered them. And slowly, yet surely, my iPod changed from Chris Brown to Lostprophets, Pussycat Dolls to Paramore. I saw them live, and it was one of the best nights of my life. I actually cried when I saw them walk out onstage.
This band are determined, hard working, and funny as hell. And I don’t care what anyone else says about them…They deserve every ounce of success, every award, and every single penny. Your views on them as people, should never go towards their music. They create some amazing tunes, and I know for a fact that there’s more to come.
So yeah, Lostprophets did change my life.
And I’m fxcking proud of it :D
So I’ve decided that after submitting a few pics already on here, I’d finally write about why I love them. I had gone through enough in the time of 14-16 years of age. I have to say, I grew up on mainstream music-not because I only loved that music, but because I wasn’t aware of finding any other kind of music. Of course, I then became very disillusioned with music. Mainsteam turned into Tart and Manwhore Central and very few bands were making me smile. I gave up on music. I lived in silence for 3 years until I was 18.
Then I met a girl. A girl who was into bands that I did like before I gave up, that I hoped were still doing good things. And she introduced me to the music of Lostprophets. It was now 2005 and Liberation Transmission was about to drop itself into my life. She played me Start Something and Fake Sound of Progress for me as well, and I kind of fell in love. Of course, my friendship with this girl was complicated and it felt like ‘her’ band and that I wasn’t allowed to like them as much as her. Our friendship has since disintegrated, but I still credit her for bringing me back to music-and to Lostprophets. I think I’ve been bugging my other friends for 2 years going ‘when the FUCK are Lostprophets releasing a new album?’
All Hail The Betrayed. If I was worried that I was falling away from this band, The Betrayed yanked me back in and chained me, right where I belong [Oh pun! snap]. This album is glorious and beautiful. Raw and exactly what I love in music.
I have then since been blessed with seeing them for the first time on stage (Hey LP, Australia? Deserves more than a drop-in every 6 years thanks. We’re not getting any younger right?) and cannot wait for my next live fix. I am nearly 24 years old now-I hope never to lose faith in my love for this band, and don’t care if I look desperate trying to get a place front row. Where else would I want to be?
Dear Lostprophets, I’d follow you into battle any day.
Lostprophets are incredible.
Even if you do not like their music, you at least have t admit they are good at what they do.
He’s amazing. .___.

Lostprophets are one of my favourite bands, even though I’ve only been listening to their music for about a year and half. Just because I haven’t been a fan for that long, doesn’t mean I don’t love them as much. I have all their albums, old to new and I love each and every one of them. I’ve been to see them once and tbh, it was an amazing gig! They are so awesome live and I loved how they interacted with the crowd. I will always remember that gig! Theres just something about them that I love and they will always be one of my favourite bands.
Much love, Ash x
I’m not going to say how “I’d be dead without them” because that’d be a lie on my part. I’m just going to say how great my life is because of them.
Without Lostprophets, my band would not exist. I met my band mate and co-founder of the band at one of their gigs. They changed my life, because the band I was in at the time wasn’t going anywhere… Now we’ve got loads of songs and we’re set to record something in August.
This band is a huge inspiration in mine and our work. We used to be called (our myspace, twitter and such are still under this name) WeExistOnOurOwn… but in all honesty, we should have been called “WeExistBecauseOfLostprophets”…. But that wouldn’t fit in the twitter name ;P
Their lyrics and melodies are captivating. Even with songs I’m not keen on, I’d be stupid not to admit that they’re talented at the worst of times… The best…. Well, I’m not sure if they’ve got a word for that yet…
You’re the best thing to hit my life, you changed it for the better and I’ll always be grateful for that.
I’m not a fan. I simply appreciate excellent music.
