  1. Bassist required to assist with the continuing development of noise, ken?!

    Range of tempo's, time signatures and decibels - essentially aiming for an eclectic kind of band covering range of music styles.

    Is there anybody out there?  

  2. Bassist and drummer wanted for alt-rock, progressive and experimental band.

    Influences include Nick Cave, Yo La Tengo, Wilco, Tom Waits, Pink Floyd, Spiritualized etc etc...

    If interested, even for a jam, test the water, 

    call Dave 07928289941.

     

    Cheers

  3. Hey all,

    I am hopefully going to have time in the new year to get Seas, Starry off the ground and do some live performances.

    Seas, Starry on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads

    The sound that I'd be looking for isn't exactly like what you hear on the myspace songs. I'd like to flesh out the songs, almost have the songs online as a rough outline to how each song is meant to go... It will go from very quiet to very loud!

    Due to commitments in other bands, this wont be my top priority, but I'd like to rehearse 1-2 times a fortnight.

    I am looking for 2 other guitarists, preferably with some similar effects to ones that I use (phaser/flanger, delay, fuzz, an EBow would be a must). In my perfect world, I'd prefer single coil Fender style instruments to be played, but that isn't a major concern to me.

    I'd also require a drummer and a bass player.

    Influences include:

    Sonic Youth

    Yo La Tengo

    My Bloody Valentine

    Sigur Ros

    Television

    Godspeed You! Black Emperor

    The Twilight Sad

    Velvet Underground

    Olivia Tremor Control

    Jesus and Mary Chain

    Lou Reed

    Stars of the Lid

    Bon Iver

    John Cale

    Mazzy Star

    Get in touch if yr interested. :)

    Wow!!! Amazin musical taste, i too am commited to a solo thing but with Television, Velvet Underground, Lou Reed, Jesus Mary Chain, Sonic Youth and shoegaze mentioned its imperitive that i get in touch!!! I would happily join this as a guitarist (i play other instruments so lemme know). Jamming twice a fortnight is also a good limit as other stuff will likely come up. So yeah, Well up for!!!

  4. Drummer/Bassist

    Alrighty!!! Well I can play drums or Bass - I have a Bass, my drum set is old and in Huntly so that may be a problem, so could have a jam as a Bassist if you want. What kinda music you guys doin? I write a lot of stuff myself so if it clicked we could collaborate. (???) Your call, i'm after a band too you see, to get my own stuff sorted. Anyhoo, lemme know if you wanna jam...

    Cheers, Dave.

  5. I was in the school library alot last week as my INT2 Hospitality class (!!!!) had finished, so I stuck to the huge rack of NMEs. Its a really shit magazine - ever ready to promote this whole NME post hardcore (?) image:

    ciggarrettes - most likely Malboro

    greasy-but-loveable hair

    emoish clothes

    You know the kind?

    also, almost every band featured is called 'the....'

    The datsuns

    the libertines

    the darkness

    the von bondies

    the strokes

    the white stripes

    cant think of any more at present but u get the drift

    I blame the state of music partly to magazines like Kerrang and NME who seem to push image rather than music and generally speak shit.

    What magazine do you read??

    Well I have to agree, NME is garbage. Another couple of mags that have gone dropping down in my estimations like dead flies are Rolling Stone and Q - I remember when Q was amazing, now its full of whatever pish overnight chart sensation has just done an absolutely dire version of an amazing old tune (U Got The Love!!!) WHAT-TH-FUK??? I've seen covers of Rolling Stone with Rhianna (or whoever) on! Hunter S. Thompson would mace those twats!!! Repeatedly - right in the eyes... So I read Uncut occasionally... But would rather read Total Guitar or something a wee bit decent.
