 In 2006 The Independent described the Cardiff music scene as "more vibrant and alive than ever", with more promoters, venues, and bands than ever before, often based on the styles of the scene's more famous products such as Stereophonics.Since the 1990s there has been a more steely edge to the sound of the valleys, dominated by metalcore.Most prominent are Bullet For My Valentine, Funeral For A Friend and Lostprophets, who had a number one hit in 2006 with their 3rd album "Liberation Transmission" on indie rock imprint Visible Noise.
