Check out our interview with Ed Sheeran here. Sheeran's debut album, +, has already sold over one million copies outside the U.S. alone; it releases June 12th in the U.S. through Atlantic Records.
From The InterviewYour debut album + (Plus) is about to come out in America in June; however it's been out everywhere else since September of last year. What some people might not know is that you've already sold 1 MILLION copies of this record. That's a huge accomplishment! Were you overwhelmed at the massive response you've received so far?

Thanks man, yeah I was overwhelmed by how many people have related to some of my songs, I've had a brilliant time travelling the world playing this record.

Four Year Strong is no longer on Universal/Motown records.
From the BandWhen the merger between Motown and Republic happened, our album was essentially done. Republic put out the album since it was done and didn't seem like they had much intention other than that, so we were able to get off the label. Nobody is unhappy about this on our side.

Drummer Bill Ward will officially not be participating in the Black Sabbath reunion.
Dear Sabbath Fans and Fellow MusiciansI sincerely regret to inform you that after a final effort to participate in the upcoming Sabbath shows a failure to agree has continued. At this time I have to inform you that I won’t be playing with Black Sabbath at the Birmingham gig dated May 19th, 2012, nor will I be playing at Download on June 10th, 2012. Further, I will not be playing at Lollapalooza on August 3, 2012.

It is with a very sad heart that I bring you this news. I am sincerely passionate in my desire to play with the band, and I’m very, very sorry that it’s fallen to this. This statement is even...
