I agree with the guy two comments below. vvv I want strata back on this...I added it to listen to strata...not "beta state". I'm not saying you wont be good...But for our sakes make a new myspace for beta state...advertised on strata's page. I looove strata with a passion,and It makes me sad not to be able to listen to them on myspace..which is my solemn purpose for myspace..music.
nevermind eric's a fuck head and that shit he does with nozebleed sucks big fatt dick......the limozines sucks horribly he's a fool to have left to persue the limozines that shit sucks more dick then tyler paige
you can tell ryan rampage to shut the fuck up! you got famous bc youre all equally talented musicians not only because of eric, he was just one ingredient, asshole! I'm still wishing you the best of luck finding not just a singer but someone who is talented and as devoted to their music as you are. Good luck guys! oxox
Thank you kindly for your friendship, it truly means a lot! I wish you the best of luck in finding a singer. Those tracks will be pure gold with vocals!
you're guys' music is pretty sick. You guys would have a solid band with some good vocals; something i would seriously consider listening to. Need good lyrics too. whoever you get to sing better have a big imagination. hah. look forward to see who you pick. i would audition, but i dont have time to be in a band right now. maybe ill audition for fun.
Hey guys!! Thanx for the add. You should check out my vocals. I've recently been searching for a band to collaborate with. I am going to start writing to one of your tracks as soon as I decide on which one. They are all awesome!
you should consider getting together with paul mendoza of unjust! he has an incredibly good voice and he might be the kind of singer u'r looking for! all the best and cheers from the alps :)
The audition tracks sound amazing. If I lived over on your side of the country I'd love to write stuff for it. I'm always making up stuff to go with it, but I'm preoccupied with school.
