Radiohead is practically the biggest band in the world without a record label. And here they are, releasing an album without a record label.
We've found "ourselves" and our music playing style. We've played many jams in the short amount of time we've started practicing again.
These are the songs we've got down;
Smashing Pumpkins: Zero I Am One Today
Red Hot Chili Peppers: Don't Forget Me Scar Tissue Under The Bridge Californication
Pixies: Something Against You
Metallica: Ride The Lightning One Enter Sandman
Weezer: Say It Ain't So Island in the Sun Hash Pipe
System of a Down: Chop Suey Aerials
Offspring: Come Out & Play Kids Are Alright
We'll be playing our first full band show next month on the 23rd, opening for another band and be one of the supporting acts for Jamfestival, an event being planned by my godbrother's management.
In a complete turn around. I watched Hokuto no Ken movie and I have to say. It is the most manly animated manga to film adaption ever.

So the pillows latest single release - "Ladybird Girl" together with "And Hello!".
Show casing their standard flare that they aren't old enough, infact they've aged quiet well, you can almost tell they haven't aged at all since their debut EP nearly 20 years ago! (It's a lie, they've aged enough so you can tell). Scores are pretty random, mostly based on how catchy they are to me.
1 Ladybird Girl
A short harpsicord intro and the drums kick in with some palm muted guitar. Slow build up until the chorus section. Simple chords have never sounded better (along with the loud/quiet/loud dynamic, as made famous by The Pixies). A standard sounding pillows tune that should cater to everyone's tastes. It's not too heavy, still very much loud and the LQL dynmaic works wonders. It's even got a catchy chorus too boot, and it's in english (This is love, is this love? and Ladybird Girl, Ladybird girl, my girl).
3.8/5
2 And Hello!
Straight forward pillows calm rock track (similar to various other release). You might find yourself aimlessly moving your feet to this song. It's catchy nature and simple melodies are it's strong points by far. Hell it's solo is just as good too. Nothing too complicated and fits the song well. I believe more people will like And Hello! more then the single itself.
4.5/5
Exciting for their next LP, and going by these, shouldn't be disappointing.
I am the captain of my boat. Waves is my body, and seawater is my blood. I have sailed over a thousand charters Unknown to mountains. Nor known to fields. Have withstood storms to catch many fish. Yet, those fish will never be eaten. So as I pray....
my 9800 Pro's fan died, yeah, pretty sad way for a card to go out ;_;
Anyways, ranbat 1.2 is this weekend and there's gonna be a roll call bout it for 2k2 and 3s. Removed Vampire 2 due to lack of interest sadly. Keep an eye out on the thread.
