  10. Advice for an aspiring songwriter?

    in Musicians' Corner

    Posted

    Dunno why, but my best ideas ..which is probably not saying much, but at least my favourite ones have been written when im hungover, in the first few hours mostly. Id definatley go with write down and record as much as possible, as you never know what you'll come back too and think that its usable. As for being too derivative of something else, think everyone goes through that, but lets be realistic, how many ideas are tooooo similar to something else after youve actually asked folk? Read a lot, as you can come across boken phrases that may make sense as lyrics or song titles.

    Either way, you can rest assured that you werent the cunt who covered "where is my mind" for a fucking Thomas Cook advert!!

    I don't know what it is about each of them; perhaps they have something in common, but I would love to smack the fuck out of them all.

    Right with you here, Dalgleish is the most annoying TV interview (ee ? ) ever, fucking loved it when Stoke got a result against them a few weeks ago, saw the interview after and he was trying so hard to not say something about "how Stoke play" hahaha! he couldnt resist! Stoke totally wound mr fucking evasive and nonchelant right up!! - SING X 10,000 - "Fuck allllll!! your gonna win fuck allllll" - not that we have ever won much of owt, but its good to gloat :)

    I dont know what it is but Davina McCall really fucking bugs me, to such a point i cannot even see her without my eyes shitting a dog, i dont remember much other than her dancing on some advert for some inane bilge she was promoting that fucking annoyed me, but still i cannot fucking do with the prick, only made worse by someone trying to jusify it by saying "shes done really well, she used to be a junkie" ace! my worse nightmare is a TV programme with her and that other wanker Chris Moyles on it, that would proper tip me over the edge, talentless fucks.

  21. Pensioner album 'Yearlings' FREE to download

    in News & Announcements

    Posted

    As a thank you, we've put up our debut album 'Yearlings' for free download from our Bandcamp until the 1st of January 2012. We'd really appreciate it if you took time to download it, have a listen, and pass it on to your friends if you think it's their bag.

    http://pensioner.bandcamp.com/

    Here's a bunch of crap that's been written about it:

    "As unpredictable as it is brilliant, Pensioner already have a contender for album of the year" - Jim Gellatly (Scottish Sun)

    “..full of angular rock classics.” – Ally McCrae (BBC Radio 1)

    "These are flighty songs in experienced hands" - The Irish Times

    "The titles might suggest a band that don't take things too seriously; yet Yearlings is a deceptively accomplished record." - 4/5 Review, The Skinny (#2 in top 5 album of July 2011)

    "...it’s absolutely important not to write-off Pensioner as anything less than one of the most exciting emerging groups in Scotland at the moment, and “Yearlings” is a fitting opening to this career." – Songs Heard On Fast Trains (shoft.org.uk)

    "...an accomplished album they should be rightly proud of." - Muso's Guide

    "These are songs that defy expectations by coming across with dramatic and emotional sounds." - is this music?

    "The band, a four piece from Dundee in case you’re wondering, have crafted a hugely enjoyable rock record that will be difficult to pigeonhole." – The Tidal Wave of Indiffere

  23. Aberdeen: The most miserable place to live in the UK?

    in General Discussion

    One place I definitely want to live is Portland, OR. Fucking LOVED it there. Although maybe after a while it would grate on me. But I doubt it. Friendly city, lovely places to visit, best Thai food I have ever eaten and I have friends there too.

    Here really good reports about it there, apparently theres a great music scene there that is turning into a bit of a modern-day Seattle by all accounts? in a - "Lets go to one of Americas less fashionable cities and start a rock band" type way. Sounds good! .....Elliott Smith was from there too i think, so kinda stands to reason :)
