"Originality wise the band get full marks. No other band in Ireland sounds like Plinth and for that they should be saluted. It's a 4 track EP with so many twists and turns that at times it feels like you're witnessing an epic rock opera in your very own bedroom. This band will surprise you, there's no doubt about that."
- From a Basement Records
_____________________________________________________________________
Plinth is a four piece which blurs the boundaries of genre by bludgeoning the rock formula with a hurley made of anti-matter and rice. An EP entitled "Tenzuke Chiste" is in existence, and shows what could only be described as a chilling vision of the brutish, short and perilous future in store for humanity. Hope is a four-lettered word too often spoke, but Plinth has eleven letters so it's better.
In early 2008, Plinth were named as one of five finalists in the Eircom Unsigned Bands Competition with the track 'Eakombookom'. That was in the past though.
Do not ask about the song names...
Lads! Just dropped by to say that I'm a huge fan of yours! I own Tenzuke Chiste, I have to say that it's brilliant, truly the stuff of kings, queens and perhaps the odd jester or two. But, I do hope to hear more, and hope to see ye live in the future! If ye so wish, y'all can take a gander at my music. It may not be to your taste, but any feedback is welcome! Well, cheers lads! DSOD.
hay! holy? does that mean we have to dress as nuns or new age healers, who know something about lizard people that you don't and follow an ex-sports tv presenter with fascist undertones?? i'm easy with either, though if i were a lizard person i'd eat that icke guy with some sautéed leeks and a dash of balsamic vinegar.
looking forward or ward4 to the gig and seeing you guys live.
