Soda Jerk Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Now then.4 of us make a heap of racket, but none of us are singers. That's where YOU come in. We need someone to make some ghastly noises with their throat.We're aiming towards brash, sludgy raucous noises like the Melvins, early-Pumpkins, late-Black Flag, High On Fire, Pelican, Unsane... There's a couple of instrumental demos here:DROSS on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music DownloadsGive the jams a spin. If you think you've got a set of pipes that would fit, get in touch and we'll jam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Those tunes are braw. Especially 'Reign in Mud'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Caz Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 yas!! How often would you guys be jamming? Being in two bands and jamming twice a week means I wouldn't be able to commit 100%. Vocals are very much in the vein of eyehategod, Iron Monkey. Poison throat all the way. Lungs of a shit soaked Satan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I dig Eyehategod. That'd fit pretty well.As for jamming, we're still in the writing process, and only have those 2 songs as it stands, so we wouldn't really need you to be at every practice for a good few weeks, although you'd be welcome to come down and have a shout whenever. I'll be recording demos of the tracks as we write them, so you'd be able to keep up to date! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 When I listened to those tunes my thought was that they would be complimented nicely by Nick Cave/David Yow style vocals.But hey, what do I know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pm me or facebook me or put a message in a bottle and dump it in the north sea with the next jam times and so on and I'll see if I can manage it to see how my grunts and farts fit.Big Melvins,High On Fire fan aswell so it shall be good.My lyrics tend to lean between interstellar psychedlic nihilism to general guffaws at social posh that I hate.

David Yow especially, but it's so difficult to find such unique vocalists, who can create such a sound filled with pure anguish without just screaming. I'm all for a bit of pained screaming too, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huw Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Decent!Great name too. If the thing with Calum doesn't work I could be game. I think I could warp my voice to fit to what's going on. Different for sure - always good.I think I prefer Mein Kampfsite out of the 2 tunes. The guitar parts are less 'straightforward' or something.

Soda Jerk Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 The guy from Alien Ant Farm used to put something on his scrotum that made it burn so he could hit the high notes.It makes me want to cross my legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both hit some pretty mean highs! I actually like everything I've heard by AAF. I'm not sure whether to be embarrassed by that or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally corny and lame but awesome band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodsinho Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 That was a class album, they were unfortunate to get lumped in with the nu metal crowd. They were better than all that tripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Wasn't it something to do with being bezzie mates with Papa Roach?I don't know why I know these things about Alien Ant Farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Wasn't it something to do with being bezzie mates with Papa Roach?I don't know why I know these things about Alien Ant Farm.Yeah. They were the first band signed to his label. They were signed after their self released EP, titled "Greatest Hits" (Quite humourously, i thought)They were also in a pretty crazy coach crash that made national news, I remember.

I'm not sure whether to be embarrassed by that or not.Some people in this thread seem to be mistaking AAF for a band. Some crazy fools are even mistaking them for a "good" band. I can only presume that there's too much fluoride in the water.The only good thing about AAF is that if their videos come on tv, you can tell they're shite even with the sound off.Gah.

Monster Zero Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Alient Ant Farm were the ones who did 'Smooth Criminal' yes? I think they were the nu-metal era band that actually managed to overtake Papa Roach on my hate list.having said that I don't think I've ever heard another song by them.

Lemonade Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Awesome tunes guys. I can hear a Rob Zombie voice going over those bad boys nicely, or even a Mark Arm / Frank Black kinda thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
