I listened to them a while back, yeah they're good, I love to buy a gun.
I think its the contrast between the smooth beat and voice of the singer and then the screaming and thrashing parts that i enjoy most.

i hear ya! my main focus is on the music and keeping the radio good... have had plans to move my web hosting for months but these things take time... Will be able to do online requests when i move to the new server too, which will be GREAT! Main problem now is that i've not been able to update my page for a couple months (again, a long story).

As for my html skills - they are HORRIBLE - and I happily admit it.... have a new lay-out and logo ready to go, but until i move or can update my site it's a mute point...

What i really need is someone to take over the web page and another to take over the message board to get it going... will see. Would love to get some album and live reviews going (as I'm offered a lot of free tix to concerts that i'm not able to attend (mostly london)) so that would need more people... problem there being they would have to have similar tastes to me and not sure how to determine that really... I'm even happy to get help with the playlist as I miss a lot of good music.

As for money making - it won't happen in the next year (if ever)... my hope is to get enough free cd's to make up for the loss... I'm effectively running two stations too, so that get's expensive.... MAY end up doing a paypal link for listeners to help pay, but not really interested in doing adverts tbh...

You would be surprised though the amount of traffic I do get - or at least I am I have a few hundred regular listeners these days... which is more than I ever hoped for and it's growing 30% a month so will keep it going so long as it stays (and gets more) popular...

anyways... i'm just one person and trying best as i can

from what ive heard of them they seem to have thrown other band's styles together without really creating their own voice. But their eighteen, good for them.

yep. im guessing most people agree tbh, its the only standout track ive heard.
they're okay, i dont hate the rest, but i hate how occasionally i can hear traces of keane & kasabian. maybe that was just my bad luck of the draw with the other songs ive heard, but... yeah.
i dunno, theyre not awful. i just dont listen to em much. & wouldnt buy anything..

these are really talented because they fuse brutal screamings with ambient keyboard and laptop work. I dont think their work is childish i think they have talent beyond their years. if anyone hasnt heard them i would reccomend the day in the life of a poolshark or open register
