thanks for stoppin by and checkin out my shit....because thats what it is...shit....i recorded these songs on a boss mr-1180 10 track digital recording device and the distorted songs sound like an old man tryin to have sex with a turtle but as long as you listen, get what im going for, and dig it....then thats all i need
Why this name?
its not my band name....its my nickname....and this is all me and my music
Do you play live?
as of right now im gettin people together to hopefully turn some of these samples into full length songs and i HAVE played live a few times, i loved the experience and hopefully ill get to do it again but its not going to be another year or so
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
well the music industry is definitely going to lose money as well as they should.....im all for sharing music files on the internet.....i dont care if i sell any cds as long as people download my music or hear it from a friend and like it.......playing concerts is where the money is at anyways and i take that money as a huge ass bonus
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
no i see no point in trying to get my FACE all over magazines and mtv and vh1 as of right now i hate anything commercial because it is all so corny and i just want to be heard ...thats all i ask and this little page right here and myspace is doing that for me just fine.. maybe in the near future an actual page for me and my music can be created but for now its this and myspace so listen and enjoy
Band History:
im a singer , guitarist, i play a little bit of drums.....ive been in 3 bands and what youll be hearing from this site is just what ive recorded in the past 8 months......4 months which i spent recording and the other 4 tryin to find a way to get my music on the f***in internet (thanks a lot curtis)
i was in my first band in 11th grade of high school. we practiced almost everyday for 6 to 8 months then we went to ohio to cut a 3 song demo and ended up paying way too much money for it and we were played on a few radio stations for awhile and was voted most requested on x 106.3 then we played at sharkeys and our high school talent show and our guitarist left for musical differences and we fell apart one at a time afterwards. the bands name was downcast
me and kris reynolds (bassist for downcast) started writing songs directly after the breakup and kris dropped the bass and picked up a guitar and we wrote for nearly a year and found a bassist and drummer 2 hours away from home and started practicing in kentucky every weekend and kris was kicked out of the band within 5 practices because he wasnt willing to change the songs we had written. we were given the chance to record for free in a brand new studio and even had an open spot on a soundtrack for a movie but i followed kris and left the band because the other two musicians had some "bad habits" kris is now in "backfold"
a year ago i found myself lonely and hurt and had so much to say and write and plenty of material already written and out of nowhere i get a call from jason bartram (guitars) and jeremy wolfe (drums) and i ended up joining their band and we had some practice sessions for awhile but i found myself pushing myself away from the band because of personal reasons and jeremy left the band within 2 months of it starting and soon thereafter it ended
now a year later with my head on straighter than ever i have joined back up with jason and a new drummer josh and we were writing and sitting up a studio and the same sh*** pretty much happened....no one really gave any effort and i couldnt practice because my equipment was locked up in jasons house so i went and grabbed my sh*** and took it all to my uncle's where me and him write as he plays drums like a crazy mother f***er (youll find out soon enough) because i bought the digital recording studio and weve got 3 new songs.....we should include some drums soon and then some vocals....maybe within a month or so well have new stuff up on here (not promising) but ill definitely have new sh*** on here sometime sooner or later
