About Karl Leate

Hi, no band, just me.

I couldn't settle with using my own material and someone else performing it, and I find singing my own songs more enjoyable. Just trying to do something with my music.

I decided to go about writing songs after hearing songs by Radiohead, Tool and Martin Grech that completely unlocked a new part of music for me. I later went on to appreciate Jeff Buckley, Jose Gonzales, Damien Rice and other solo artists. The fact that these bands and songwriters make it evident that so much emotion goes into almost every song, is what makes them stand out a mile compared to other mediocre bands.

I just want to get someone to like my music in the same way as this...maybe

Andrew Taylor	Dec 6 2008 11:55 PM Just wanted to tell you about a film screening on tuesday. It's an award winning documentary about how changes in law and society have been justified by 9/11 and 7/7. An MI5 whistleblower will be there to speak and answer questions, so too will the films director. It's at the Queen Charlotte, Dereham Road on 9th Decmeber. I think it'd be great if the music community of Norwich stood up for a little truth so I'm telling as many of us as possible about it! All the best, Andrew

Into Flight	Apr 23 2008 10:48 AM I recognised your name and everytime I went back on myspace I kept trying to remember where from and I just worked it out... I think you were in this battle of the bands with us YEARS ago, we would have been called zabakuz then. We were terrible. I seem to remember you played a rage song and had some skills. Small world (in Norwich) x

Sam	Nov 5 2007 10:41 PM Back in 1958, data from America's very first successful satellite, Explorer I, confirmed that our planet is girdled by an inner belt of high-energy particles from outer space, trapped by the earth's magnetic field. An outer belt was later identified, and both were named after discoverer Dr. James Van Allen of the University of Iowa. Not only do these trapped, highly-charged cosmic rays disrupt the performance of orbiting manned spacecraft and unmanned satellites, but they also pose a lethal threat to astronauts passing through them on missions to outer space! Intriguingly, an American firm, Tethers Unlimited, Inc. (Lynnwood, WA) has proposed deploying humongous 62-mile long electrically conductive tethers into space from satellites to defuse the Belts! These tethers, charged with a high voltage, would create powerful electric fields which would draw out the Belt particles, causing them to fall into the lower atmosphere where friction would harmlessly disintegrate them. Scientists calculate that five such tethers could reduce the content of the Belts by a whopping 99% in just six months! As a future potential application, such tethers conceivably could be utilized to reduce the atmospheric radiation of other planets, such as Jupiter and Uranus, enabling man one day to terraform them into habitable sites for human colonization!
Patty Idol	Nov 4 2007 3:58 PM I'd rather, without a shadow of a doubt, and with much certainty, be akin to, with all due respect, the MP John, two-jags, Prescott and, whilst knowingly, but with much faith, rather, and this pains me to say, use one too many, or maybe, as perhaps could be argued, ninteen too many, subordinate clauses.
