Hi James Southwell Band., thanks for accepting my friend request. I appreciate the opportunity to introduce You to the music of ALIEN SKIN.
If you enjoy the MySpace song previews, you can listen to DON’T OPEN TILL DOOMSDAY by visiting my band-website (below) … AND while you’re there, help yourself to the selection of free downloads!
Hello to all, Just thought we'd stop by and say thank you ,to all the awesome bands that have sent in their material which has been aired on the show throughout the years.
We have had an exceptional response through myspace from some of the most talented underground musicians in the world . It is your contribution to our show that show people that there are still actually real musicians out there [and rap is surely not damn music, neither is that techno crap].
Undergroundsounds airs throughout Australia Thursday/Saturdays p.m.
Bands that would like their music aired on any future shows can forward their material to the address below;
Undergroundsounds Program Manager 44 Bambil St, Crestmead,Queensland. Australia.
Oh yay, turns out people do still use myspace!!! Hows it going Mr Southwell? Am working hard fo' the money today...can't wait for today to end! Catching Chase the Sun with Joey tonight! Is your gig next Sunday? The 21st?
