Like, at the same time?

Ha, now that would be a talent! No idea why the "and/" ended up there!

Keen for this. Play guitar and/ or drums.

Yep, I know from my playing days that high quality recording in aberdeen is nowhere to be found. The forum is worth a mention for being the worst quality but I like that it gives young students the chance to ehance their skills. Cap Toms is a reliable old favourite who pretty much have aberdeen cornered as far as affordable demo quality is concerned. I just dont think they've been properly tested to produce a great sounding record. So in my mind the quality of the product offered would always be priority.

AS far as the joint gig/recording venue I'm 70% sure that's the route i'm going down.

Keep up the good work guys!

probably just a cheaper price to be honest, but then how would you make any income. the majority of people probably don't mind paying a little bit extra to practise in order to support the local businesses such as captain toms, and musical vision. i don't think there really is a need for another venture like this in aberdeen, not only have you got tom's, musical vision, and the foyer for practising and rehersing, there are a number of great studios in the shire, for example exile. on top of that i've heard about people who have independant studio set ups in their homes who offer to record bands.

Yes, thats a good mention and something i've been aware of for a while, also something i'm contemplating doing in the meantime as a move to a different city may be on the cards.

On the point of income, sometimes I think it may not be the be all and end all of doing something like this, personally as long as i can support my family as well as offering the musicians of the city a really great product would be worth it.

Another contemplation I have is a joint recording/ rehearsal AND gig venue which would give bands another place to come and play and not have to worry about hiring equipment etc. Would also give the people another venue to check out new bands. Thoughts?

Hey folks, I'm doing some research at the mo and need some feedback.

Basically I'm lookin into the possibility of setting up a new recording/rehearsal studio and would like some suggestions as to what you guys think is lacking from any current ones in the city other than just cheaper prices!

What do you guys and girls feel would make the difference and could give you a better experience?

What's currently missing from the current options?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Like I say this is purely market research to see if there's even a need for this kind of venture but I feel that the best opinions come from those who would be using the facilities.

How would you be for some rise against / paramore type punk?

What style do you sing, influences etc?

I have a 2000 Ibanez DTX120 (millenium) destroyer for sale. This is a great guitar and has been my baby for years but unfortunately it's time to sell her . Apart from one or two minor scratches on the top of the body it still looks and plays great. I'm looking for 200 ono for it please.

Oh and i'll try and upload a photo of it soon, i'm having some computer file uploading issues just now!

cheers

Alrighty, posted about getting a pop punk / hardcore band together a while back but a whole lot of going offshore has put paid to me actually replying! So here's take 2. If anyone's up for / still up for it give me a shout and i'll actually reply this time! Need a drummer, bassist, guitarist and ideally someone who can sing.

You nuts? The youths are all about this stuff now. Set Your Goals and all that pretend punk nonsense.

Well i havent really moved on from 1999 and im sick of this town being filled with mediocre metal bands - where has all the fun gone? So im gunna start a mediocre pop-punk band to make up for it!

Simple question dont you think? If you do, gimme a shout - need a 2nd guitarist, drummer and bassist, if sumone can also sing thats cool, if not we'll get a vocalist too!

Wanna play orig material, this is not a cover band!

Influence/ style -

New Found Glory

Alkaline Trio

Rise Against

Blink 182

Goldfinger

etc, etc

Interested in this if you still lookin. Not been playin drums too long but am lookin to get into sumthin and hopeully get better. what influences/ style u goin for?

Dude you from potterton? same-ish lol. wot you got in mind for this band then? pm me if you wana get somethin goin.

Re.

Im in a band thats pretty much a mix of Alkaline Trio and Rise Against, possibly looking for a new guitarist to join and add sum more depth to the set up if you're intersted. Or id be interested in setting up a whole new band altogether. Let me know dude!

Alkaline Trio, Misfits influenced 3 piece band seeks to replace lost drummer. You can see why we need a drummer.

Have own material/covers and are nearly ready to gig.

You dont have to be great (if you are then cool!) but give me a shout if interested.

Call or text Steve - 07742220336

Cheers

Taylor ye c**t!

Hey dude it's yer fave sexy ex-infection guitar playin maestro who sees yer in need of a guitarist. (pause for breath) gimme a shout if u wana giv me a shot, if no i'll c ur sexy ass around! Steve x:rockon:

I have to go against the grain and say I like them.There is not a single bit of hardcore in their sound and roadrunner hasn't labelled them as such a band.They are a straight forward metal band likened to Machine Head and Metallica not A7X or Atreyu.

Yeh, I'm sorry but while they're not the so-called "saviours of metal" their sound is phenomenal. For their age (3 of them are still 18-19) the solos are ace and have you guys heard the drummer? Flawless. Ok the shouting is a bit much all the time but I love them.

Ok, here's the deal - Have got this metal thing going with two mates - one a drummer and the other a guitarist. We need a bass player and keyboard player to complete the line-up.

Ages 17-19 (16 if your shit-hot).

Influences - Trivium, Killswitch, Dream Theatre, Pantera.

We're looking to be heavy but also light and melodic, so, if ya wanna have a go pm me.

Cheers.

Totally excellent show. The Dead Pets are off the fucking wall - amazing live band - well worth the wait! And yes last nite was the last show with Kieron as the Infection frontman/bassist. A new line-up and name change will follow soon (hopefully!) Yeh, that's right - you cant get rid of us just yet!

Fucking great...

No other words...

just Fucking great

To be honest you can bitch all you like. But yeh, definitely eat more Kit-Kats - just because you can never eat enough (talking from personal experience here!). I prefer the chunky ones tho.

Infection aswell

There's no doubt it was better than Infection's version.

Which just so happens to be shite.

You can eat my ass - if this is a genuine post that is.

The Planeteers were brilliant' date=' much better than karlof! [/quote']

I dont agree with that but they were brilliant. Anyone else think the cover of Blitzkrieg Bop was a little naff? Other than that they were great.

Wooo, Amy, stop bitchin. That's all u ever seem to do - bitch about Infection. Really... find somethin to do - eat more Kit Kats, I dunno, ur borin people to death.
