I was trying to find out if they ever hired their guitarist and drummer but got nothing. The craigslist postings expired and as far as I can tell there weren't any other ones (someone please prove me wrong!).

Oh, man I finally listened to some songs besides "Waves". Did these always have guitar overdubs? I thought that they would all be just bass and vocals, like "Waves".
Hilariously bad Jimmy Page aping.

"She Be Mine"'s genre tag is "Delta Blues".

I'm a musician who hasn't taken the time to write how I feel about things. Most of it is done in action, but reflection is a time honored tradition of those who embrace the elements that distiguish us from beast. I am very close to a wild animal. In fact, I am a man.

My band is The Epsilon Rising. I've mentioned music twice. It must be as important to me as beauty. I like cynicism. I love God. I love women. I love fully expressing myself without any fear of the consequences. I love poetry and risk.

And I wonder why I'm in Romania? It is a matter of choice, and I'm certain that time will tell me what I am searching for... (a great drummer and guitarist).

i'm still trying to find the original Epsilon Rising thread but no luck yet:-/ that manifesto/craigslist ad was one for the ages.

however i do think Complete's music is more interesting than ER's. i genuinely dig them.

That's why ER would open for them.
A sick part of me would still want to "audition" for him if he still lived in the US. He still hasn't found anyone. :(

We are in the process of recording our CD which we hope will bring war and racism to an end. :) I love my people... that means you.

compare/contrast with the lyrics from "Hoogie Boogie Land":

"There is no waaaaaarrrrr in Hoogie Bogie Land/There is no hate/Can y'all relate?"

oh snap they have a track I haven't heard on there now, "Drag."

hahah apparently "Drag" is a total ripoff of 4'33"

yeah I can't get it to play either. Cage, Page, what's the difference?

I really should post those links over on that thread so we can get back to Complete.

ha, if that guy's band actually gets famous that craigslist ad is going to come back to haunt them

latebloomer, Sunday, 5 August 2007 15:05 (sixteen years ago) link

I listened to 5 seconds of "Gimmie Some Love". It sounded like someone trying to stuff funk-soaked pineapples up G. Love's ass.

No thank you.

I'd lug all that dude's equipment if his rich parents were actually going to finance paying me a reasonable amount per gig.

The sound I'm going for is like a death cab/panic at the disco THE WORST HORSESHIT ANYONE HAS EVER HEARD kind of thing.

anyone here interested in 'peak oil issues'?

if your creative output is restricted to just a few words, maybe this is a better challenge to undertake:

A Funk/R&B/Reggae Band specialising in well crafted songs is inviting submissions of clever names for the band that will sell records.
