The Sloth Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 You can't threaten everyone who doesnt like your music. Here's a quote from a review of the charity gig Hog did that I was given by someone who was there' date=' I would link in but it's a Friends only Live Journal entry:"Weaping Jesus, up next, were The Worst Band I have EVER Seen. I know metal isn't my thing, but I can appreciate good musicianship of any genre just about. I've even liked some country & western! So when I say the Worst Band I have EVER Seen, I mean it. If you've heard the Death vocals on Opeth's latest offering, think that but then give the guy a sore throat from hell, remove any singing ability and replace it by a LOT of volume. Because if it's loud enough, you're too busy protecting your eardrums to think about how crap it sounds. (Those who haven't heard Opeth, think the guy in the Prodigy, do the stuff I said before and magnify the bad around ten times). [b']Add to that a band that don't seem to know any chords and increase the volume of that until it hurts your ears. Jesus did, in fact, weep. That's where the name came from."Now bearing in mind that review came from a female, do you want to hit her too ? The fact that she isnt into that kind of music is obviously an influence but you can't dictate what people think of you. Obviously that review is a tad simplistic but I'd hope you would accept sometimes its not some proples cup of tea. No-one would have a problem with you hitting Cloud because its fun, hell everyone should do it once, but he is only little and hitting him because he doesnt like your stuff and says so seems a tad silly.Maybe the way to solve it is to manufacture Cloud shaped punchbags, though you'd have to bend down to hit them.CheersStuartShit guys I think we've been found out....

Flash@TMB Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Aaron in WJ now shares the vocal duties, just to confuse things even more. The way I tell them apart is that they are in fact different bands, with different people in them, and different tunes. The only thing they have in common is some ginger hair.Easy! WJ have the ginger guitarist' date=' S.o.M have the ginger SINGER!hope thats cleared a few heads.also how do you get on the fudge awards? do you have to play fudge gigs of just be well known?i do like WJ. BUT i do miss dick.(cloudes a cock:up: )[/quote'] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladeola Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I'd say that gay innuendo is a step lower than pissing on each others fires; time to shut up and wait for the awards?time to stop thinking that the awards are any true representation of anything in the large scale of things and see "outside the box" yeah?

Teabags Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 also how do you get on the fudge awards? do you have to play fudge gigs of just be well known?Filthpact never played a fudge gig. and I wouldn't say we were very popular in Aberdeen. so, emmm, no. I have no clue how we ended up on there, I think it's probably because we're the sexiest band in Aberdeen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Mac Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 On a side note' date=' you repeatedly breach the rules regarding personal abuse yet one of the mods says I'm the one acting like a kid. Fucking hell, the devil or the deep blue sea?[/quote']Ben has been warned about his conduct on here (probably more than most).So you are not the only one getting a slapped wirst for being a naughty boy.

Dan G Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 jesus' date=' will both of you just shut up.SPD dont like MMW and vice versa. Now stop this bloody abbreviation battle and just stick to your own things.[/quote']Ok Dave, I will do that because you say so. Or perhaps I won't. In my eyes this has nothing to do with SPD (can't remember EVER attacking the band or it's music) - to put it nicely, I merely 'disagree' with Jake.My opinion is rubbish to you simply because it's a negative one about your band' date=' that is all.[/quote']Not really - your opinion is rubbish to me because you hark on about anti-corporations/industry with your nike t-shirt on, tesco bag full of shopping in hand, before going home to your metallica vinyl. Cool' date=' deal with it however you like, but if I was in the "industry" and read some of the stuff you post on here, I wouldn't touch you with a bargepole. If you genuinely are going places (debatable) a bit of maturity is in order. And before you whine "hypocrite!" at me, we're not the ones chasing the dream.Moral high ground? No, just common sense without the infantile personal abuse. [/quote']I will decide when to be mature thank you. As opposed to listening to someone who avoids "infantile personal abuse" whilst *hilariously* calling Ben 'Rinky' - a poor attempt at an insult - in every post directed towards him. You're not a hypocrite at all Jake...And if chasing the dream is being in a band and having fun with your mates, then yes I'm guilty of that. I'm sure you're having fun with Scroge though... he sounds in every way awesome like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
