WELSH rockers Lostprophets released their first album, thefakesoundofprogress, just over ten years ago.

And to celebrate, the Pontypridd band are playing three special gigs this summer in addition to their previously announced festival appearances.

One of these extra dates sees them come to Cardiff University’s Solus venue on Wednesday, August 17.

They’ve enjoyed great success along the way with two Top Ten British hit singles in Rooftops (A Liberation Broadcast) and Last Train Home.

Tickets for their Cardiff gig are now on sale and are £17.50, available on 02920 781458.
