Wikipedia

  1. convicts

    A convict is "a person found guilty of a crime and sentenced by a court" or "a person serving a sentence in prison". Convicts are often also known as "prisoners" or "inmates" or by the slang term "con", while a common label for former convicts, especially those recently released from prison, is "ex-con" ("ex-convict"). Persons convicted and sentenced to non-custodial sentences tend not to be described as "convicts". The label of "ex-convict" usually has lifelong implications, such as social stigma or reduced opportunities for employment. The federal government of Australia, for instance, will not, in general, employ an ex-convict, while some state and territory governments may limit the time for or before which a former convict may be employed.

  1. Convicts

    Convicts is the seventh studio album by the Australian rock band You Am I. The first single is "It Ain't Funny How We Don’t Talk Anymore", which was released as a digital download on 22 April 2006. The album name, Convicts, comes from when the band toured America, and briefly changed their name to "The Convicts". Tim Rogers later said of the album, "It hadn't been a great couple of years, and it's even worse when I look back at it now. I had no confidence at all so I wanted the guitars too loud and everything aggressive and loose."
