[we make you music]

The point i was raising was that these 'battle of the bands' style competitions are never all they're cracked up to be. Good on you for reviewing a show, but the main point of your post seems to drag the attention onto this competition, which, in my opinion is just a money spinner for the company fronting the cash.

You posted this on the feedback forum, that was my feedback. Given that your not even in the band do you really think they would appreciate you insulting or provoking other people in other bands on their behalf?

And i wasn't insulting the band, in fact you quoted me saying i quite liked their songs.

I don't really know what the point of your post was other than writing a pretty poorly constructed review of the bands gig. You might as well have come on her and posted a thread saying 'i like decipher you should check them out', and people might.

E2V's dudes how you doing? Anyhow's sure you know me, least paul will!! I'd just like to say many bands better than decipher??? Really who are they?? I mean music, like anything is about taste, some people like this or that fact is I like to have fun at a gig and my buddies in decipher play a good gig in a style of music I love cause erm done in there and my style"!

When you guys playing locally again, missed you last time as left early? Did I miss a good gig?

Anyhows, yeah these battle of the bands thing is just a money spinner, they guys un decipher are having heaps of fun and people that see them usually have a good time!! I even think Paul was having fun last time, I seen a smile....don't deny it!!

Also hopee you guys play with them again soon we'll have a drink and a laugh and a good time!!

Hey man. This scene is too small for people to bitch at each other. I don't think paul meant that there are better bands in a way to insult you. I think he was just riled that this guy had a go at us for not having as many out of town gigs.

But anyway, really enjoyed your last set. Was just commenting on the Kerrang comp, which i think is a waste of time as, like most of these, ends up in a battle of who has the most mates to vote for them.

Think the guy who created the thread thought i was having a go at you personally, which i wasn't

Enter all the battle of the bands you want. You'll be beaten by these fellows every time however.

I think the key is, no matter how bad you are, if you shout 'san-demus high school football rules' then you win.

Also befriend a naked indian dude and all will fall into place.

Lucky me, I do both on a regular basis. Who wants to be in my triumphant band? We'll rock so hard, the record company probably won't even want to fuck us over after we win

They're okay, wouldn't say anything special if you know what i mean. sound very much like offspring styled bands as the original post said.

Lyrically not so good, technically not so good, but they're fun, and teenage kids would love them, hence why kerrang is "supporting" them. anyone agree?

I'm not trying to cause an argument of any kind, although as the original poster also said, the aberdeen-music folk do like to start shit off for no reason.

Teenagers don't like The Offspring anymore. They're into crunk-metal with an evangelical twist.

True enough. Crunk. Haha, didn't even know that shite existed until a few months ago. What has the music world turned into?

I've near enough given up on all music of these days. Don't get me wrong, there's a fair share of good bands out there, but most bands sound exactly the same as one another and it's pretty damn depressing.

I mostly listen to 60's, 70's and 80's stuff really these days.

Any of you guys given up recently? haha
