Album News
You know that CD release show of the Nifflers? Well, you can check out their album art for Singing Songs and Clap-a-longs, too!

Nagini‘s EP, Twelve Foot Blues, is suddenly going to be released later. However, it’s not a total loss. In fact, it’s going to be pretty amazing because new songs are being added, re-recorded, and it will suddenly go from EP to full length album!

The Ministry of Magic has released their third full length album, Onward and Upward!

The Enchanted Ceiling EP by Harry and the Potters is now available on iTunes. Nifty!

Weird Paul and MC Mystery are working on putting together a compilation. They are “currently looking to find other Wizard Rock bands to put out a Wizard Rock compilation. We’re also interested in finding other Muggle bands who like Harry Potter to see if they’d like to write Wrock songs for the comp as well!”

Song News
Dawlish and the Archies have put out a parody of The Curse Breakers‘ ‘Full Moon’ called ‘Fat Aunt Rising’. Go check it out!

Additionally, Dawlish and the Archies have up three other new songs on their Myspace alongside their parody. Listen to ‘Dark Lord’ (a parody of ‘Candyman’), ‘Aggrandizin’ Rhymin’ (a rap to the Tetris theme), and ‘2009 Sampler’ (a sample of some of the songs they hope to release this year).
