Re: Whats the next gig you want to go to? in Chit-Chat

As for pre-gig drinks, I think Jerry mentioned Thomas House which is across the road from Vicar St. Sounds good to me.
I hope to get to Dublin about 7pm and miss the rush-hour traffic (hopefully!).

Thansk Petri! Yeah, I’ll be driving, so hopefully I can park close to the venue and safely pack away those tapes before the gig! :-)

Re: Bands of WoM members in Chit-Chat

Downloaded your album, Nitro, listening to it now and it sounds great. On track 2 now, excellently executed metal!

Re: Bands of WoM members in Chit-Chat

Great music again - reminiscent of Slo Burn. Much prefer the gruff vocals on the chorus as apposed to the cleaner voice on the verses. Maybe put an effect on the cleaner vocal to dirty it up?

Spot on Simon - I thought the ramshackle recordings were great Paul!
Very original material, definately get that band of yours back together :-)

Shouldn’t you be at home with all the nappies , little pink dresses and doing middle of the night feeds instead of going off all nights making a horrible racket with your mates ?

You lazy bollox ! ;)

Ha ha, funny you should mention that! That clip was recorded early October when the missus was still pregnant. Since then, I’ve had exactly one rehearsal, lasting about 2 hours max.
Last night has been typical of the last 6 weeks or so: finished work at 1am, got home, immediately fed the baby, changed the shittiest of nappies just after, then stayed downstairs with her until 6am, until the missus got up, I went to bed for a few hours before coming back into work. I’ll do it all again tonight :-)

Re: Bands of WoM members in Chit-Chat

Listening to the track now Simon, elements of serious stoner rock in there and I’m hearing old QOTSA in the breakdown. Look forward to hearing it again once mixed. Keep me in the loop!

Re: Bands of WoM members in Chit-Chat

Just thought I’d throw up a rehearsal video from my new band ‘Turning In Circles’.
Influences are Mouth of the Architect, Neurosis, Mastodon, Melvins etc.
We’re on the lookout for a 2nd guitarist, and maybe someone on keys/samples, so our sound is still developing.
Recorded on a phone, it’s difficult to hear the vocals but moderately enjoyable when listened through earphones.

Ziconaut (see above posts) are thankfully no more!

Re: Please recommend me some Therapy? album in Chit-Chat

Yeah, if you like the slow(er) Therapy? stuff, then “Infernal Love” is the way to go.
It’s got songs like Moment of Clarity, Bowels of Love, Diane, Me Vs You etc…

Re: Bands of WoM members in Chit-Chat

“Nightmare” garage demo now up on our Myspace (and youtube & facebook).
Recorded in Oct/Nov last year, the middle section has almost totally changed now, but what the hell, we’ve put it up anyway!

buffalo-boy, I’m also liking the new track ‘Hypertension’. I’m a sucker for my melodic rock!

Re: Bands of WoM members in Chit-Chat

Ha ha! Oops, I got the same when people heard my bands demos (made with a drum machine before I joined), and they all said “really good drums, man”, to which I gotta reply each time “not me, a drum machine”… they say “oh”.

Sounds promising Squall. I like when the drummer has scope to express himself, some nice chops in there!

Re: General Happy Birthday Topic! in Chit-Chat

I haven’t come to this thread in a while, and I miss a load of birthdays, d’oh!

Happy birthday to everyone I’ve missed.
And for today, have a good one Karl…

Just don’t tell McGowan that it’s your birthday, or he’ll have an extra pint of vodka to celebrate = end of gig!)

Re: Bands of WoM members in Chit-Chat

Anyone about in Dublin tomorrow (Tuesday) night? If so, feel free to come along and laugh at us in Captain Americas on Grafton Street. We’ll be on from about 9pm onwards I reckon. 40 minute set.

Mister Hoppy, I’ll send you a cd went it’s ready, gratis! We’re re-recording everything we did with our original vocalist, with the new guy. So, whatever’s on our myspace, feel free to rip :)
The cd will probably have 3 tracks on it, and should be ready after christmas… we’re not exactly fast workers!!
