    Hello,

    We are a five piece band who recently lost our drummer (well, he’s in Belgium but we can’t get him back), and so we are back in the drummer market. We play in a style that is roughly classified as alt rock and lazily compared with The National and so we would are looking for a drummer for whom both of those are a positive thing. We have recorded our first studio album and, once we have found a drummer with whom we feel we are well matched, we will be releasing it. The drumming style we are looking for has been expertly described as Radiohead meets The National by the four remaining non drummers in our band.

    In the interest of transparency I’m going to try and describe our group dynamic without totally killing your interest. In our practice time you can expect lame jokes, mad puns, nerd talk (proper nerd talk, about Buffy and Firefly and Final Fantasy and Halo) and the occasional criminally offensive remarks about one another and people who are not us. At our gigs you can expect a chronic lack of drunkenness or smoking of any kind, with a healthy dose of social awkwardness in the face of discussions about competing micro-breweries and beard trimming paraphernalia.

    If you still think we sound like people you would like to meet (or if you are truly desperate) please drop us a line (if by line you mean email) at iamtherubber[at]gmail[dot]com. Don’t worry, that’s not the band name. We’re already looking forward to meeting you,
    Yours Heavy-Breathingly,
    T.M.S

    Ha! Thank you. Actually got lots of pms (ooh that doesn't work, I meant private messages) from Boards.ie drummers so it was definitely a better location to post than any of the music specific forums or even advert.ie which is interestingish I guess.
