currently no song available...
1 guy. An 8 track and the lungs of a heathen. Nuff said.Actually it isn't but these are hymns to a disaffected generation, the kind of songs you think you've never heard when you've actually been singing them all your life.
Why this name?
I used to be in a hip hop act called Zesty Honky but when it seemed apparent that no-one was going to do a damn thing I did my own
Do you play live?
I haven't played live yet as I have no idea what the hell I'm doing, besides other bands take priority. I'm not a muso, I can't tell one sound from another, but I want to create so I thought what the hell, who cares if it sound bad or unrehearsed or plagiarised, if this keeps me occupied enough to lay off the cigarettes for more than ten minutes then it is a good thing.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think that music belongs to the people. I am pro-piracy, bollocks to all those sites that wring every cent from the public. Have my tunes for free, this is the start of the new revolution!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Don't see why not, other crapper bands have been before me and made a success despite not haveing any morals or talent in that order, but let's not name names shall we.........
Band History:
I've been around for a while, vile-8 is the name of the main guy in the band but we also use the vocal talents of L-bo, D-Fekt and D-4m'd to get the whole package going. We've only been formed a brief amount of time so there really is nothing to tell. Sorry, but when we do something worth telling you about you'll read it here first. We all work on other projects but we all love a bit of hippity hoppity doo wang now and then so it seemed like a notable side project Some people see side projects as adultery, I call these people wankers.
Your influences?
We listen to absolutely anything and everything. But these are what we're hearing at the moment :- Bloodhound Gang, Goldie Lookin' Chain, Marilyn Manson, Green Day, Red Snapper, Johnny Cash, The Prodigy, Gwen Stefani, Shat,
Favorite spot?
There's a certain thing about the Underworld in Camden, London. The claustrophobic vibe, the dip in the floor, the ability to see your favourite acts without going to a faceless venue. The underworld, like Camden in general, rocks like a monkey in a beard suit.
Equipment used:
Whatever I find lying around, loops and samples are too de rigeur, I try to infuse an almost yokel approach to hip hop and rap. Taking it from the computer programers and nerds and giving it back to those who feel the passion of the music and want to break in. No longer will usccess be for those who deserve it or are talented.
Anything else...?
Yes. Don't know what yet so I'll just ramble on for a while. Random key pressings, hey I'm very literate, but that's the joy of being taught the language by a man with a stick. Not yet though.
