Noise Rock Pop - Looking for Recruits

Hi there,

I'm steve. I'm a 22 year old college graduate and I desperately need a band to take my mind off being unemployed. This is sort of a last attempt of doing something in Ireland before I fúck off to London or some far flung place if music doesn't pan out.

I'm a multi-instrumentalist singer song writer type. My previous solo outfit Retreat From Moscow was moderately successful. It was a folk-pop, synth and acoustic guitar based outfit. I've sort of outgrown the whole slow folk thing so now I want a 3/4 piece band to play a mixture of songs. Some of it sounds like No Age and experimental punk while other parts sounds like Built to Spill and Dinosaur Jr. and even reminiscent of Pavement I guess. I need a guitarist, bassist and keyboardist but ideally at least one of these people would have a working knowledge of a second instrument.

I don't have any demos for this new material yet. To get some idea of what I'm about here's a link to one of my old songs that would sound kind of similar to what I'm about. Imagine that song with upbeat and thumping drums in the chorus.

I really just want any sort of musician who shares similar influences.

Thanks for reading.

Actually this might be better example. Just louder, LOUDER!?
