they weren't exactly a great band
just the guitarist and the drummer were pretty impressive, especially for ones so young. Hopefully they will get better influences soon

I once played in the same bill as a young band who showed great potential like that
Their music was nothing special - generic blues rock - but they played reasonably well enough for me to remark that if they got hold of some good records and absorbed some good influences they could one day be good.
They didn't. They grew up to be The Enemy. It transpired that they only managed to get hold of Oasis and Jam records. I was very wrong.

so what you're saying is that
we should have done the world a favour by locking these guys in a room and forcing them to listen to good music?

I think the lesson here
Is to lock them in a room and forget about them.

A mate of mine sings a bit.

His own stuff is better though.

Couldn't make the link to his own stuff work
But the other link was terrible. He's old enough to know better.

No, sorry
That is pretty bad.
Someone please preserve us from singer-songwriters.

Marginally
It was over before it did anything.
There are others who do the whole loop station thing much better.

William Basinski, for instance.

He's got a good voice
not sure he's singing what is suited for it
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 11 Apr 2012, 22:57, Reply)

I'm led to believe he was 'told' what he had to sing.
I'm amazed he's ever heard of the song he did on the telly.

He should delete his account and kill himself
And I should stop replying over on this side
