"What we do is really quite unique. We start with a very catchy or memorable melody (referred to as the "chorus" or "hook"). We preface this "chorus" with somewhat more subdued melodic passages we call "verses". Oftentimes a "pre chorus" will be inserted between the two, for added emphasis of the "chorus". A "bridge" frequently precedes the final "chorus" for increased impact. Accompanying word groupings we call "lyrics" tend to provide some personal revelation, and usually retain some semblance of a "theme" from start to finish. We think this formula could be the start of something great."
Wow, that will be an awesome show...have fun! We are considering a road trip to Chicago for Riot Fest in Oct..so hyped for Drill car and ALL....it's been too long!
Holy shit! You guys are opening for Big Drill Car???!!! I'll be there if I can! Wow, it'll be like Big Drill Car opening for Big Drill Car... ha ha ha! Yust kiddink.
Hi from Finland,where did you lost yourself??I nearly lost myself yesterday in Tallin/Estonia,I was sailing 3 hours over the sea to visit that fine old town,and its so fine to have some beers when sailing!!hahahh,,but now home sweet home!How are you doing friends?? LILLI
Heya! So I checked out the CA Oranges and you're right, they're fab. We'd be happy to share a stage with them (or you for that matter) only we don't gig. Never have, prolly never will. It's a song factory.
so we were playing the smiling moose in pittsburgh the other night and wouldn't you know they had you in the juke box...i was going to play a song, but then i remembered how you made fun of my jeans and i don't see why you did that, because they never did anything to you...they're just jeans...they're blue and they keep my legs warm during the winter and alittle too warm during the summer...which kind of gets on my nerves a bit...all clinging and making me sweat...fucking jeans...i hate them things too!
Hahaha...thanks! I did tell Vince that his solo song "You're Invited But Your Friend Can't Come" from Encino Man was better than Thin Mint cookies though. So he shouldn't be crying too hard. Can't wait to hear those new tracks guys.
hahah I was actually introduced to your band by Ken's nephew, Joey, and his brother, Steve. Im on Joeys baseball team and Steve is one of the coaches. But ya, we blast your CD in the car to get us pumped for our games hahaha
Thank you for the kind words in German! That's right, I'm not a "Kartoffelkopf". In this moment i'm listening to your song - SIMPLE REQUEST - from the Album THERE IS NO "I" IN BAND. I like this song, it makes me happy!!! So boys go on working :-)
"The Human Race The human race is an unfair and stupid competition. A lot of the runners don't even get decent sneakers or clean drinking water. Some people are born with a massive head start, every possible help along the way and still the referees seem to be on their side. It's not surprising some people have given up competing altogether and gone to sit in the grandstand, eat junk food and shout abuse. What we need in this race is a lot more streakers."
no way! i am most certainly not interested in getting rid of any of your releases, past bands (blt, gameface) included. in fact, i plan on picking up your first 7" next time i place an order with dr. strange. but then they have a habit of leaving stuff out of orders all the time, so theres no telling if i'll actually get it.
i cut my hand open on that "remodel sampler" cd case the other day!! ...that thing is tougher than beef jerkey.
hope to see yous perform again sometime, otherwise maybe i'll see you fellas at the big drill car reunion show in august at club panties or whatever it..s called.
