   About The Drowners
MySpace Layouts

‘The Drowners will cultivate a huge hardcore following of like-minded people; the young, pissed off and dispossessed’. (The Vapour Trail) The Drowners formed in January 2007 and played our first gig in April. We marry the ferocity of Holy Bible era Manic Street Preachers and the overt melancholy of The Cure. Birmingham had nothing to offer so we have now established ourselves in North London. We are beautiful rage. We are a mirror for your self-disgust. We want to mean something. We want to change people’s lives. We will be everything. We hate God. We hate pointless, faceless music. We hate apathy. We hate ignorance. “With these catchy, unnerving, and intertwining melodies, The Drowners have a song with the potential to be a hit.” (www.noizemakesenemies.co.uk)

I play guitar but I'm shite...about in the same league as Richey Edwards. My dusty Les Paul lies in the corner uncared for but not unloved.

My mate plays guitar VERY well but he thinks Metallica are the best band to have ever existed...

I'm alright, ta. Off work today so going on an almighty mission to some place near St Albans for a handbag. It's a top notch handbag though, I tell thee!

How was your weekend?

I had a drinking match with my phone and I was the clear winner.
I think I spilt some Koppaberg on it and it just died the next morning at work.
Funny, I was wondering only the day before if it was possible to die of hangover.

Did you apply for the job?
It's silly but I think I'm more excited than you about you potentially getting this job!

I'm sorry to hear about Tim.
Good luck on your quest for a new drummer!
Hope to see you back in action very soon indeed.
I might put off telling Bem about this. He'll be gutted.
