    The drums sound wierd, but good song (Y)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 953 ✭✭✭superconor


    yeh the drums sound a bit strange. the snare is too fat sounding and loud.

    sounds pretty good though, like the effects at the end but i would say you would be better live! what size venues do you play?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,483 ✭✭✭Töpher


    Predictable.
    First word that popped into my head.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 30 Petoria


    :D

    That's sh*te. Are you 16? Your drummer can't even stay in time, and your riff sounds like Musicmaker on a Saturday afternoon.

    The music lacks any type of originality in my opinion, the drummer seems to be quite amateurish and and guitar work could do with a bit of polish too. Sorry, it's just my opinion, I'm sure you have your fans out there though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 378 ✭✭wiped


    That's awful ... not my cup of tea ..... sorry mate.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    Just putting it out there. Definatly wouldnt be everybodys cup of tea. But there are punters out there who listen to to our stuff so this for them. Leon, I was over in the Front Lounge :rolleyes: the other day and i see some of your old "artwork" has been framed and for sale, you seen it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 345 ✭✭leonotron


    no way, where the **** is the front lounge? I'm not too happy to hear that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    The front lounge is in between The porterhouse and IT Direct on the edge of Templebar, notorious Gay bar from what i hear too, nice pint though. just on the wall past the bar on the right

    I take it it's just a photograph or whatever? I am a bit miffed, I know they couldn't have asked for permission but I'm not too happy none the less. I'm going to take a trip in and get the "artists" name and have a word with him. It's the last place I ever would have wanted anything I ever painted to end up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    Im trying to remember the layout of it, its like a collection of Tags and scrawls from all over the place, and theres a big IDOJ in the middle along with some writing and stuff. I noticed it cause it stands out a bit.

    :p Are you sure people listen to it? I can't imagine anyone would go to your gigs except the same few mates over & over again. You can't expect people to take it seriously when the drummer can't stay in time, can you?

    No offence, but it's really really bad.

    Well, it's "Dublin", I'll give you that much...

    The Number Something is my favourite song


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 371 ✭✭plastic_axe


    thought it was pretty good.

    where did you record? with a decent engineer you could sound excellent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 953 ✭✭✭superconor


    It's the last place I ever would have wanted anything I ever painted to end up

    Why? As its a "notorious gay bar"?

    Yes the music is a unique taste, but i do feel the energy that went into it, and feel it would be better live. Just my small change.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    We recorded in Creamy sonic Studios with Peter Slankster. Excellent Studio and hes very very good. At this level, we are never going to to be 100% happy with anything thats recorded. until we spend a few weeks in the studio banging out idea after idea and getting it down. I really like the recording for the time we spent on it.
    Unfortunatly we dont play The Number Something anymore, just sounded too pop punk to be honest, and that was never what we were about

    Why can't your drummer stay in time?

    Why cant you stop raping children?

    Why can't we all just get along? :ninja:

    Id love for all of us to get along. I can take critisim no problems, but this knob is looking for a fight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,152 ✭✭✭sound_wave


    just finished listening to it there. its true the drummer falls out of time at some points, but other than that good job , if it is lacking a bit in the originality stakes.

    I don't rape children - sorry. If this was an attempt to recruit me into your secret club, you have failed.

    But seriously, the ONE thing a drummer should be able to do is stay in time. I'm not looking for an argument - just a reason why the one musician whos job it is to set the tempo of the song, and keep everyone in time, can't do his job!! And how do you expect record companies, or other musicians, to take your band seriously, with such a fundamental element missing (timing)? I think I make a fair point. Your band sounds like a bunch of 16 year-olds banging away in a shed.
    You don't have to resort to a sick insult to vent your frustrations - just get your drummer some lessons for his birthday, instead of lashing out at me. I didn't start this topic, mate.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    We cant all be as perfect as you Sean unfortunatly:rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 30 Petoria


    I know who you think I am Gareth, but while I work in the same building, and hence share the same broadband connection (and Sean let me use a dudmasters domain to register/approve my account, because my Hotmail wasn't accepted), my name is Peter.
    I work for TWC, but yes, Sean pointed me in the direction of this thread.
    Fact remains, your drummer can't stay in time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25 Seinfeld


    Jeez Petoria get a life, leave the dude alone. I'm sure the drummer will get better in time, no pun intended, or else maybe they should ditch him and get a new one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,483 ✭✭✭Töpher


    How long have the current line-up been together?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,880 ✭✭✭nosmo


    More importantly, why are they both banned?

    but I think 'banned' implies banned from all of boards.ie


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Petoria, AKA Herbie747, AKA Sean Herbert BANNED!

    Please continue with the thread in a civil manner.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 292 ✭✭Spenguin


    Yeah its a bit 'predictable rock music' in the way it goes, but its fine. I didn't think the drummer was that bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 767 ✭✭✭nesthead


    ye get a new drummer. he cant play the fills he's written.

    you really should get yourselves and totally get out of the public eye. get really good, get some good songs together and get decent production on them.

    if you continually just play every gig you can find, people are gonna get sick of you, and since its such a local scene i think every potential fan in dublin has seen probably seen or heard of you, (and branded as very amateurish, not bad, by people ive talked to) for example, dont play a ****e gig like that one in fibbers a while back (where there was no ****ing bass amp, just a PA for it!!) stuff like that gives you a bad reputation; the sound was **** and talk about scraping the barrel...

    the same thing has happened to On/Off, theyve played so much to same people that many have lost interest in them.

    dont put out a mp3/cd whatever unless its good. theres a massive amount of potential there, but if you keep going the way you are youre gonna alienate your whole crowd.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2 Horn Tackle


    I kinda liked it, but the drummer does need a lot of work.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Its not my usual poison but I thought it worked pretty well in a loose "shoot 'em up" sort of way. Keith Moon kept sloppy time too! ;)
