You are Pain of Salvation. Masters of emotional but down-to-earth lyrics and gang vocals. You have the shortest songs of the bunch, but you make up for it by making them all work together as part of a bigger story; a concept album. Take this quiz!
Thanks so much for your comments. Its means alot to me and the rest of the band. Especiallly as I am a big fan of alot of the bands on your bands list, so for you to appreciate our music means a lot.
I also really like your photography, excellent work. Keep in touch dude.
Many thanks for the kind words, and extra thanks for putting our banner up on your page. Nice one :)
There's a chance we'll be playing in Exeter in September, supporting a well known Swedish band, but it's to early to confirm. Check our page once in a while as the news will be up there.
*wakes up from passing out*
oh yeah, and i like your profile song....
and your background. maybe i could get u to try to draw me! that would be interesting.
Maths is good! I like maths! Physics on the other hand sounds gruesome, Id probably collapse from the pressure! Though I did like physics the best at CVCC. London would be great, very busy though. The band sounds great I hope to hear some music soon! Youll have to release and album in Oz one day in the future! Pizza is horrid! You should snatch it out of Ryans hands and throw it in a river, lake, sea etc. just to annoy him! Though hed probably either go in after it or buy more! Ive never tried surfing, I defiantly want to though and the Eurotrip sounds interesting, whos going? As for QuayWest I never got to go but it looks great there and Im sure youll all have lots of fun! Ive been talking to Alex (As you can probably tell from his home page) and hes making it out to be pretty bad. Personally Id just get a load of fountain pens and flick ink on a piece of paper and call it art! Im not very artistic if you havent guessed! Lol. James is still growing?! Is that possible? We cant see him over here yet though Im sure we will if he grows any bigger! As for the end of the world I have a theory that its over near England somewhere because Im pretty sure its not over here
Well, not really a friend but it's a good way of tourmenting you while I'm on the other side of the world! lol.
I'm fine, how are you? Up too much? Life must be pretty boring without me! lol, just kidding, I bet you're having a great time! Heard about James and Ryan's Party, sounds like it was good fun. Have you heard much from Jon and Chris since they've been at Uni? I want to know everything that's been going on since I can't be there any more!
