  1. Aberdeen band, looking for a drummer, 4/5 songs there or there abouts completed, get in touch, check out demo for one of our songs soundcloud.com/sacrigger/its-not-you-its-me
  2. As the title, we are looking for a drummer to join our new, original band. Influences include, Arctic Monkeys, Doves, Strokes, Suede, Stone Roses, Smiths, Feeder, Ocean Colour Scene, Joy Division. We have completed most of the lineup apart drums. We have been jamming for a while, writing a few songs, but unfortunately due to work commitments our drummer has had to leave the band. We have a recording session booked in June to record two songs, while we continue to write over the summer to come up with a set of songs, we have 3-5 half written songs, and are looking to record and then start getting loads of promotion in place for when we eventually begin to gig Genuinely people who are up for a laugh, and a jam, but do have drive to come to practices and reply to emails and show interest Should have good initiative for song creation, and a lot of focus towards this project. We have our own practise space near newmachar that we try to use at least once a week or if it doesn't suit us, we can use the practice spaces in town. Please get in touch with me personally at craigtaylor1987@hotmail.co.uk or find me on facebook etc.. We have a few rough demos that we can share if need be, and a Facebook, twitter, myspace, reverbnation, bandpage pages etc set up and running for the band
  3. Hey guys cheers for the pointers, love hearing other people's thoughts, will take them all on board. My band came up with a demo of a tune, that was really hard to write around, but we managed to change the song around so it was more about the vocal, i definitely have potential to write some stuff, just trying to find a way to make it click together and find some rhythm so it isn't such a mind-f**k. I am keen just to write a standard indie number, to kick me off a bit. I just wrote a song, about an older male/younger female, relationship and im just trying to tweak it slightly so it fits the song. Also when my band have given me some demos I find it tricky to find an innovative melody line to go with, but i think thats more us as a band need to work together to make it fit.
  4. Hey guys, i've started getting involved with my music in the last year or so, and have now done a few gigs with a covers band, singing. I am now trying my hand with a band, of very good musicians, trying to come up with music, and I am coming up with some ok stuff, I am keen to know how most bands go about song writing? do your band come up with a full song and then write a song around that, or do you have any advise for things you use for writing? I am trying to take inspiration from music I like, and music I know do my voice justice, but I end up just sounding like im trying to rip it off. If i start completely fresh with my own ideas the idea is way overly thought and, still doesnt sound like anything half decent. I want to be able to write cool, catchy songs, to give to my band. Any pointers and tips would be cool!
