44 (band)
44 Also ( 44), plus 44 or plus 44 ( pronunciation " plus forty four " ) is an American Pop-Punk/Alternative-Rock-Band resulting from Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker, Craig Fairbaugh and Shane Gallagher composed.
History
After the members of the American pop-punk band blink-182 had agreed on a " indefinite hiatus " in February 2005, the cause of which were growing tensions between Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus, the members went their own ways. While Tom DeLonge formed the band Angels & Airwaves, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker called the band 44 to life. The idea for the name came to them, as they were staying in England throughout its international calling code is 44.
The band initially consisted of Hoppus, Barker and the singer of the band "Get the Girl", Carol Heller. But this left over the recording of the album the band to care for her family. To hear it is still in the song " Make You Smile" and in very early versions of " No it Is not ." The gap eventually completed Gallagher and Fairbaugh.
Their first album, When Your Heart Stops Beating was released on 14 November 2006.
As part of the iTunes Foreign Exchange project, the band has the song " good day " of heroes We are housed in their own language. In turn, " When Your Heart Stops Beating " was sung by the German band. Both songs were released on 4 June 2007 on the iTunes Store.
Although 44 still exists, but when blink-182 reunited in February 2009, the band was put on hold.
In an interview with Up on the Sun Mark Hoppus admitted that there is a future for 44, but the band currently does not work (because blink-182, his TV show and his family are in the foreground ). He added that he would be happy about a new album to be produced very much.
