Another song sung by rats in the middle of a shoebox, that really shouldn't try and do clever things like solos and surf guitar considering just how badly this is recorded.
Straight Arrows play scungy bubblegum garage exclusively, Side-A of their debut 45, "Something Happens" sounds like some psych-garage Nuggets-era combo recorded on four-track in a public toilet. The riff on Side-B belter "Can't Count" stinks of "Satisfaction", set to a stompin' beat with bratty vocal delivery and wild, distorted echo-chamber production. Imagine trying to tune in an old transistor to pick up the Monkees and just hearing the melodies crackling through the interference and you've almost got it.
unbelievably bad 7
Maggie cracked her head open during a basement show, so we’ve been out(no pun intended) for awhile. She is almost better so when that happens we’ll be back in the recording studio. In the meantime, we did manage to convince our buddies at myspace.com/onryeproductions to let us do the video game SFX that are on their newest episode.
If you are interested in having a song or songs of yours featured in future episodes please send mp3s to onryecontact@gmail.com They are looking for all genres. Yes, all.
First of all, The Dreamers fuckin sux! Secondly, in some ways it shows how pretentious and horrible the rich parisian youth can be! The guy and his sis' are sleeping together 'cause they are in love with themselves so bad, if parisian people could fuck themselves in the ass the would do it! I still miss you guys.
hahahahahaah kick our arse holy shit i'm laughing so hard I just fucking pissed myself if you came to canberra we wouldn't even have to kick your ass you pussies would die of a cold hahahah holy shit were gooing to beat you down.
also I will send you a cd just to know what the soundtrack of head kicking sounds like.
hey dudes how are you. fuck this is really awkward to ask but you us $1000 dollars for paint ball. Shit there are alot of balls. please pay soon beacuse otherwise we will kick the fuck out of you.
I was looking at the Red Pandas at the Zoo when i realised i was supposed to be at the pinball convention. I somehow managed to triple-book Saturday. I think i owe Dittmar $1000 for not being able to make the Paintball.
Too many balls.
Anyway, did you listen to the record?. Do you think it worked out alright?. I dont think there is one good song on it. But if you listen to it all together it kinda works. Kinda.
We'll start recording
The Kiosk/Napkins + Goodbye Nevada EP in two months or so.
Focus on the Straight Arrows one more than anything - We all expect a masterpeice. You have to deliver.
That new song is mindblowing. You dont belong in this generation - God has made a huge fuck up. Is that like a distorted sax - or kazoo or something?.
Or Owen strangling a duck?. Sounds so good.
The mastering went pretty well - I'll be over next week or the week after with them all pressed up and we'll shoot the 2 minute commerical in your kitchen.
hey dudes. If yous can be fucked, come down see us play next friday (24th of april).
Pro's: Y - You get to hang out with jake - I might tell a joke on stage
Cons: - You have to listen to our way too complicated rock n roll - there won't be enough 3 chord songs - There's too many solos - Songs go for too long - i can't sing worth shit
