The Disgracefuls started playing together in 2001. After a few months practice in a basement with less than perfect sonic qualities we got our first show and it's all kinda just snowballed from there. We recorded our first demo cd "a disgraceful demo" after being together for about 3 months. With demo in hand we went on to play tons of Carbondale, IL. shows as well as many of the surrounding towns and have even ventured up to st. louis. Somewhere around Aug. of 2002 we decided we wanted to record a full length album. We started to record what we planned to call the "Six watts of hard rockn' power" album but conflicting schedules with studio time ended up killing the project. Determined to press on we thought, why not get some gear and record ourselves. And so we did, our first attempt came out pretty good, and we learned a TON by trial and error. Convinced we could do better but strapped for time, we decided to put what we had on cd and give it away for free at our shows. Once summer hit and schedules weren't so tight we started work on "One more times" scheduled to be released Oct. 4th 03. If you like any of our previous recordings, you're going to love this album - the disgracefuls
Why this name?
when we first started we completely sucked, that and as far as we could tell, no one had taken that name yet
Do you play live?
yes we play live as much as possible mostly in carbondale and surrounding area. bars, parties, we love em' both. we just had our cd release for our new album on oct 4th and it was great
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
i love it, you shouldn't be in music to make money. you should be in it beacause you want to
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
that would depend on the contract now wouldn't.
Band History:
started in 2001 and have been doing our best to rock it out where and when ever we can check our web page http://www.thedisgracefuls.com for the full history.
Your influences?
almost anything off of fat records, lots of stuff off epitaph. and definately the local scene. too many bands to list, we wouldn't want to leave anyone out
Favorite spot?
we don't travel nearly enough. any stage suits us.
Equipment used:
bleah! distorted guitars and fast drums. that's all you need. anything else is usually overkill
