Default Douglas Split

Just when they seemed to be really finding their sound etc....

One of the best UK live bands in recent years. The newest EP was great..... Ah well....

From Drowned In Sound:
------------------------------
Welsh punk heroes Douglas have announced that they're calling it a day.
Bassist Nathan recently posted a message on a Welsh music forum, and the split has been confirmed by a member of their management.

"Hey all, just to let you know that Douglas have split. We're planning some final shows so if anyone is interested, please let us know so we can sort out when and where. And I just wanna say thank you to all who have supported us, and put up with us over the years - thank you. Safe as f**k. Nat"

i saw them when they supported CapDown. i thought they were a tad boring.

on a more positive note, Jerry Built have recruited the former LightYear bassist and will be touring soon.

yay!

I thought they were pretty dull as well. No unique selling point, so i'm not suprised they never really got anywhere.
