Thanks for adding us as friends. You don't know the guys in Four Letter Word do you? We were on BYO with them for a couple of years and played with them in Cardiff in 2001. I guess Scotland and Wales are different countries and it's not like everyone in UK bands know each other. Anyway, cheers!
OK, you probably will be surprised guys!XD I am russian, and one of my friends from russia told me about you. Then I asked here (I live in Madrid,Spain) and some of my friends have heard your music too! So I guess now you are a world known band! Keep it this way!
I don't remember how I found out about you guys exactly. I think i may have read about you guys some where...either on the internet or in a magazine, idk though, sorry I can't remember, all I know is that I had the band name written down on a sheet of paper and then I searched for you guys later on...well talk to you later bye bye :)
Hey there! Not often we're added by a band I actually know of! I was put onto you guys a while ago by Stuart (Jacob's Stories), and this stuff sounds very cool indeed. I'll definitely make an appearance on that October tour! Anyway cheers for the add, and for the kind words.
I occasionally go through all artists on myspace and I listen to as many as I can. I try to find things that I haven't really heard before or things that are just new to me that I like. I of course then, add the bands that I like to my list. Presto! Your band appeared there. keep doing what you do. Hope all is well for you too.
