   About 3RD WORLD SPECTATOR
3RD WORLD SPECTATOR


The idea of 3RD WORLD SPECTATOR has been lying dormant for the past several years; the music has been around for a while, only coming to true fruition at the beginning of 2008 with the correct line-up of musicians being assembled.

With songs built to rouse audiences and showcasing a theatricality in their performance rarely seen in local bands, 3RD WORLD SPECTATOR‘s eyes are firmly set on success. The band truly permeates in the sensory – whether it is audible or visual, trying to create a universe within which the audience can immerse themselves.

Sweeping vocals, feral drumming, massive guitars and deeply conceptual lyrics manifests within their music. Referencing across different genres and taking in elements from classic rock, electronica, hard rock, opera, indie and pop creates a hybrid style all their own.

Gradually building a reputation as one of the bands to be seen, 3RD WORLD SPECTATOR are supporting the likes of aKING, Van Coke Kartel, Plush, Taxi Violence and Foto Na Dans and reaping the benefits of exposure to bigger audiences.

With a busy schedule which includes the completion and release of their full length debut studio album at the end of the year, a music video and an active gigging schedule, 2008 will prove itself to be the pinnacle starting point.

UGH! It's just that he picks the damnedest (I know it's not a word) times to take a nap. I am STARVING and I didn't plan on cooking because my dad gave us a gift certificate to go to Ruby Tuesday and we had plans to go. I tried to wake him up over an hour ago and he's still laying there. I'm moving on from annoyed to pissed off! anywayz, it went good. We got stuff for our wii. How was yours? know what sucks? that IM supposed to be the one that knows about "web-stuff" and your profile is better than mine? Maybe I should just let you take care of mine like mom does Dan's...ohh, that reminds me, speaking of mom; i finally got her to start taking those surveys online like i'm doing, cuz i know the extra money sure comes in handy. you should really try em. i mean, if i got mom to try it, psh, i can get anybody to, heh..i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is:
