escholl Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 video gives me a headache. probably not the best thing to watch if you happen to have epilepsy... Quote
51m0n Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 (edited) Actually reminds me of early Fuzzbox (the good stuff, Rules and Regulations etc) Bostin Steve Austin was a fantastic album - those were the days, when Indie was just that, and you could make a video on super8 for a tenner and get it on national tv on the Chart Show...... I quite like this EDIT: Actually the bass and drums are almost a direct rip of Rules and Regulations (ha ha!) Edited June 19, 2009 by 51m0n Quote

The band do the "all change instruments thing" during their set and sound...exactly the same! They're getting a ton of press at the moment and live are - IMHO of course - jaw-droppingly awful Now, if they DID have 2 bass players playing at the same time, they'd be... no, they'd still be terrible... So yeah, not really a big fan Quote
SteveO Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 God that was terrible. Not sure what language she was singing in, could only understand the 'Down down down down da da down' bit. Not that I've anything against singing in a different language, over here we get stuff from all over the world, it's just that with the total reverb overkill I couldn't tell if it was english with a bad accent or Romanian. The bit that really made me laugh the most though was that as the intro went on and seemed to be about to burst into a huge chorus with loads of screaming guitars etc, it ended, and I realised that it hadn't just listened to the intro but to the entire song. Reminded me a lot of that band that shockwave linked to a few months ago... hold on...
