Cloud Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 it is, i was typing that in a rush but yes, I fully expect to hear rumours of Dedalus signing to all these big record labels before long. Why? well, if you know, you don't need to ask..and if you don't know, you don't need to know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dedalus Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 Very good.But no, we won't be signing to any such labels in the near future ;-)Indeed, our first release may be a D.I.Y release.

tranzmute Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 hello dedalusIn terms of band member quota are you attempting to compete with the polyphonic spree.??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dedalus Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 hello dedalusIn terms of band member quota are you attempting to compete with the polyphonic spree.???Not quite - we just want to create a big, melodic sound. We're not being self-indulgent; it'd be easy to assume that having two basses and two drummers in certain songs would clutter up the sound - but it really doesn't. Every part fits, and every member of the band is thoroughly justified thus far.Most of the songs are slightly happier than the Dedalus you may be familiar with, too. So we hope it goes down well.

framheim Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 it's because of the whole cuts hype thing i guess. they can't seperate the cuts from dedalus for some reason. the new stuff sounds great and i can't wait to actually see dedalus again. it's gonna be very weird for me but should be ace.
