Guest Dedalus Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 Having reformed and expanded, Dedalus have had a shocker of a month, rocked largely by departures within the band.At the minute, people have felt the need to cease their involvement with the band to understandably focus on other things, and the band is now down to three core members with a stand-in drummer. The songs previously written and rehearsed for the expanded Dedalus have been either shelved or scrapped, and four new songs form the basis of the new material, with more being written currently, and we think people might be pleasantly surprised with the output.We will be playing such new material as we headline Kef at Halloween.

framheim Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 note to self, do not organise a photography session with dedalus when everyone is drunk so that they forget all about it then neglect to tell you that they're not practicing on that day anymore because everyone left those dirty bums.if it's any consolation, i care.

framheim Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 as far as i know, there was lots of people helping out on various things who have other commitments. i believe it's a disappointment rather than a major setback. dinnae fret.

Guest Dedalus Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Remaining in the band is:Phillip QuirieSteven RaineyRobert SmithIt's very disappointing that others have left, but it was hard to avoid. We still want more involved, but at the minute that doesn't appear viable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j.turgenev Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 i heard steven dedalus was heading the way of stephen dedalus from 'a portrait of the artist as a young man' by james joyce...a disgusting drunk who continually visits prostitutes, whilst having severe religion-induced guilt over his sins but not being able to do a damned thing about it.

Guest Dedalus Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 do u still play that 'car broke dounnnn in..... the middle of... ireland' song?Nope, new material entirely. All three aformentioned remaining members are contributing heavily to every song being written. I'll try and get them online or at least available to send via email asap, if anyone is keen to hear some of the new songs.Thanks for your interest.

Stuart Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Yeah i wasn't sure what he meant by the skull.The skull is a repeating image which you will find in every chapter of the book, symbollising Stephen's journey through life, heading towards his inevitable little trip to hell.
