You can download my band's five song EP for free at our Bandcamp page. I guess it sounds something like the cover looks - a bit of a mix between My Bloody Valentine's 'Loveless' and 'Bleach' by Nirvana, with some Joy Division and Sonic Youth thrown in. For more internet spamming: Our MySpace. And our Facebook.

Haha, the only reason the drums are like that is because we can't afford decent mics for drum recording so we just use Garageband loops. Thanks though!
-
 Cool stuff. You might like Bandicoot - http://www.myspace.com/bandicootbandicoot Or my band for that matter - http://www.myspace.com/misterpinkband  /New Zealand music plug.

We just jammed it out as a joke when we were soundchecking at that gig and thought it sounded sweet so we threw it into our set
-
You cover it too?
-
Head to my band's MySpace to hear our noisy live cover of 'Fuck the Pain Away' by Peaches featuring a Woolly Mammoth and a Big Muff.

No, it wasn't quite that casual . The lift door was about to close so I ran and stuck my foot in the door. Then I said "fancy seeing you here." I must have looked like a twat but he just laughed so it was all good
-
Yeah that's my name. And have I really? I am about half a foot taller now I suppose haha. And yes, that gig was probably the best I've been to, apart from the first Muse one which was pretty much a turning point in my life. More pics.

It was the night before actually, and on into the morning of Big Day Out. Bandicoot (who are all only 15 and opened Big Day Out at 10:30) actually played as one of the support acts so I assume they must've been knackered That gig probably had the best atmosphere of any gig I've been at though. The location, the DIY nature of it all and the people there just made it perfect for me

Really liked Muse at Big Day Out, although it wasn't as magical as the first time I saw them. Pretty predictable setlist also. Had a really good time meeting and seeing The Horrors though, who were the band I was most looking forward to. I saw them leaving Real Groovy and discretely followed them back to their hotel (yay for stalking) and jumped into a lift with Faris, the frontman. This is the result. Later on that night my friends and I were at the secret Mint Chicks gig I talked about before in a hot-boxed, sauna-temperature volcano rock tunnel which was fucking incredible. Then we saw The Horrors there and chatted for about an hour. Nice guys. Excuse the, ahem, rather interesting photos. Put it down to a mixture of vodka and second-hand high. Oh, and their show at Big Day Out the next day was amazing too for those who didn't see it

Cool, I wanted to go quite badly but there's only so many trips to Auckland I can afford (coming up for Pixies in March too).
-
I've been really good. Just getting pumped for leaving Wednesday morning for Auckland . And yeah, they're all kind of in the indie/noise/pop vein so they might not be your thing. I like them all quite a lot though. Yeah, I'm thinking it's going to look/sound pretty excellent. Yeah, I believe they're playing Campus A Low Hum (assuming that's what you mean), Bandicoot are as well.
-
Haha, I don't really inhabit Kit & Tab much so more. In fact I don't post so often these days, just occasionally in Banter and Other Bands. And that's a shame, I'm pretty excited about this, I'm sure it'll sound amazing in the tunnels!
-
+1 for Bliss. Also, if anybody needs something to do on the 14th and is a fan of The Mint Chicks, Nevernudes, Bandicoot and Rifles, there's a 'secret show' going down in the tunnels at North Head out at Devenport. Will probably be amazing. Oh, and this is probably my first post in here for about half a year. Hello all

"If Nirvana, Sonic Youth, The Cure, Smashing Pumpkins and an alcoholic crack-whore made a baby and the baby started to cry, that crying noise would sound a lot like Mister Pink." If you like distortion, noise and pedals mixed with pop sensibilities you should have a listen. Our ReverbNation profile is here (you can download our song 'I Hate You' for free). Or you can Facebook befriend us here.

My MySpace page. There are five songs up there, spanning genres from Industrial to Post Punk. Feedback welcome and appreciated
-
I would love if Bowie and Massive Attack came. The Bowie rumour seems a bit too good to be true to me though.
-
My band's new MySpace page - http://www.myspace.com/alphawolfpak There's a song up there - Hopscotch - which is something like Jack White meets Bloc Party meets When You Sleep by My Bloody Valentine. Feedback appreciated
-
Wow, these look brilliant.

This. Nice job
-
Did you get 1337 prizes?
-
OK so here's my band's new (and very incomplete) Bebo page. It's fairly lulzy. There's one song (I use that term very loosely) up there - Sunshine and Flowers. Just me and the bassist fucking around one evening.
-
Yay! I'd come if I wasn't on the other side of the earth. Guess I'll just have to wait for the world tour

You should download the free trial of Acoustica Beatcraft and have a play with that. Lots of fun, easy to use and it'll teach you some of the basics. I'm using a free drum program called Hammerhead Rhythm Station at the moment, which is fun but somewhat restrictive. I'm sure there's plenty of people here with much more knowledge than me on these things
