Basically just stuff me and my pal here record on our spare time. Some just weird covers/noises and others just crappy stuff, usually backed with low quality drum machine stuff. Currently a one-man band, but guest appearances are encouraged!
Why this name?
Just watch more disney movies you pompous fiend! [that was for the old name, the new name is from a little play by Oscar Wilde!]
Do you play live?
We play live in our little rooms. That's about it!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I guess it gets word of music out faster.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Indeed, I need MONEY! MONEY DAMN YOU!
Band History:
Umm we were in another band, and when that broke up we just started fooling around with computer recording. that's about it. Currently a one-man endeavour now.
Your influences?
Anything that sounds cool.
Favorite spot?
Nowhere?
Equipment used:
Cheap computer drum machine (known as hammerhead), I use the tr-505 sound pack most of the time, but now I'm starting to use my own!custom sounds.
Anything else...?
Let's see... I am currently using my crap ibanez RG180 guitar (maybe being replaced by that sexy gibson lp double cutaway) through an Ibanez 25R Toneblaster (pretty good for bedroom recording, but I really need something else besides a single speaker amp) through my computer (good stuff), and I multi-track using some freeware program called AUDACITY which is pretty alright. For bass stuff, I use my dad's '51 p-bass reissue through my amp and into my comp, but if Marc is over he uses his Cort bass. I really need keyboards, but I might split the cost with my sister and buy a cheap casio.
[update] I've been using a Gibson SG for a while now going into a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe 1x12 60 watt amp. I use a cheap mic to record my amp, and still use the '51 P-bass into line-in for the low end. Hammerhead has been in use for a long time now for drums, but I have experimented with physical forms of percussion. I have been using an Ibanez DL-10 for delay for a while, a long with my first pedal the BOSS OS-2, and the more recent Danelectro FABTONE and Ibanez FC-10 fat cat! I also have recently acquired the Digitech PDS 20/20!
