eh, I wouldn't call it evil. It's good for us too lazy/ too broke to manage an actual band website type folk.

I've got me a crunktastical band.
We playin' all tha hits.
Make ladies dance til the rump fall off.
Bass so sweet and funky it'll rot yo' gums and stink yo' toes.
Crunktastic to the mastic!


Ummm, we is currently workin' on our mysizzlespace piz-age.
The link will go down when the ten nines tippa caw.
Right on, keep crunkin' babies!

yay.

name: max
band's name: recs of the flesh
instrument of choice: vocals + guitars
band website: www.myspace.com/recordingsoftheflesh - www.recsoftheflesh.tk
song online: praise for paramnesia

saturnine, do you have any recordings?

Wow max, that song is so well recorded. :)

damn, unjammer, are you serious??? jeeeeeeeez. that's totally KIND of you, man.

I even have a website, but I concur with you about myspace because it gets a lot of traffic! If you want to get anywhere you better be a phenom (which I'm not) or bust your ass networking (which I do) (and which is where myspace helps).....just keepin my fingers crossed!!! 2nd long commited band so far (+3 years each) and it takes a LOT of bustin ass, faith, sacrifice, hope, some money....and I ain't even seen the half of it yet...........ok tirade over.......

Fuck Yeah !!!! cool stuff!

I play drums for a band called Slammin' B-O-D. We barely exist, or shall I say, all of us are still friends and talk about playing again, but we haven't practiced in months. The sound is retarded, neg-vibe knuckledragging scumrock soaked in sarcasm. Influences are No Trend, Bunny Brains, Flipper, Skarekrau Radio, and Stick Men With Rayguns.

Shortly after we played our first show with Hustler White, Mikaela's Fiend, and Pussygutt, we caught a listen of Pissed Jeans and realized that that's the sound we were really going for. So, if we ever play again, I think we're gonna dumb it down even more.

I'm also in a rotating-door kinda improv thing called Outer Zoning Committee which plays live in support of touring bands when no other local band is available. We just sorta "convene" the Committee in emergency session and aim to compliment the style of the band we're supporting. We can do the moan-wave vocal thing over a sorta free-jazz circle masturbation, and I do the drums in that, too.

I got tapped to drum for Gang Wizard four times, and I've played bass for them twice. That was the most fun I've had playing with a band, and I hope to be asked to conspire with them more someday.

hey,
I havent ever posted before but I check out the board often. I'm sure it is probably in poor taste for my first post to be whoring my own band but nonetheless:
My name: Nick
Band name: Nash Lane (www.myspace.com/nashlane www.nashlane.com) - based just outside of Boston
Instruments I play: Bass, Guitar, and misc. instruments here-and-there (theremin, cassette player, circuit-bent toy keyboard, xylophone etc)
Type of music / info: Experimental/Psychedelic rock / Space Rock. We have a long list of influences (generic, limited list; beatles, radiohead, SY, my bloody valentine, failure, flaming lips, barkmarket) but we don't try to sound like any of them; we have stuff that is noisy, spacey, 'grungy', shoegazy, poppy, hard-rock and so on. We have 3 songs up from our first album which came out last year and 1 demo from our upcoming album, which we are offically starting in a few weeks. I'd be glad to upload more songs if anyone is interested - feedback is much appreciated from such classy folks.
Love,
Nick

I have two bands. One Is titled The Funeral Party and I play everything except drums. It's more of a studio band at the moment. The Funeral Party Is a hybrid between Gothic days of the Cure and some elements of Nick Cave in there. The second is titled Candidate. That band is more focused on making sonic love with alt. tunings instead of finding funereal riffs on the old bloody organ. I only play guitar in Candidate.

HAHA I said the same thing about his recordings. Remember Max?

I have a musical project that I'm putting together in my home studio. I just got finished writing all the songs to my first ep, now I'm in the recording phase.

It's a noise pop/noise rock electronica influenced hybrid.

I'm going to have 1 guitar running through a lot of delay effects, distortion, etc. (Think My Bloody Valentine, Lush guitar sound)

I'm going to play an arp odyssey synth as my lead. The bass is going to be a tb-303. The drum sounds are going to be various old school drum machines (tb-808, tb-909, etc.)

The vocals are going to be mixed in the style of Shoegaze, so that you can barely hear it over the music.

That's basically the type of sound, I'm going for.

damn, I do remember. and still I find it hard to accept! but thanx a lot, it is very appreciated!!! yesterday i was doing sound engineering live and a bunch of people all came down to once again tell me how good my sounds were.

kinda freaky, becuz to me is just average sounding, but... :rolleyes:

hey o9mm i noticed you have a show at P.A.'s Lounge in Sommerville coming up, how did you go about booking that? we've sent a couple emails to their booking email address in the past couple months asking about playing there but haven't gotten a response back.

I also just emailed the same address as on the site. I forget how long it took them to get back to me prior to the first show we did there (last november) but this time around they got back to me very quickly so, sadly, I have no advice aside from keep pestering the hell out of them.
That being said, I checked out the stuff on myspace and it sounds really cool; I'd definitley like to set up a show somewhere sometime if that interests you.
Nick

Yeah, that's what I figured. I wish booking agencies didn't all use email, it makes it so hard to get any response out of them. We tried there and Great Scotts and got nothing, but we ended up boooking a show at the Midway in JP, so at least we finally got a boston gig.

But yeah if you want to set something up, we'd be down. And we'd try and hit you guys back with a show at some point. Our guitarist books shows on occasion but i'm not sure when he's doing another one. If he does I'll try and get you guys on the bill.

1: none
2: guitar/mumbling
