Sounds Like"Pavement, if their arty arses were ever left with no choice but to go on the last 37 bus, with a dash of powerpop, along the lines of the mighty Jawbreaker; while assimilating the quiet/loud dynamics of Pixies; and not forgetting some truly mindwarping wah effects c/o lead guitarist, and an absolute wail of a lead vocal noise!"

   About Whale Engineering
Imagine a cross between The Smiths, R.E.M. and a house fire, though slightly less popular and slightly more destructive, and you have a close approximation to Whale Engineering. They hail from Penicuik, playing a mix of their own songs and choice, tasteful (for the most part) covers. Called ‘quality’ by a drunk man in a pub, ‘pretty good I suppose’ by various students, and ‘an alarming and rather frightening danger to public safety’ by the Office of Environmental Health, this band are sure to bring that certain ‘Explosive and Tragic Car Crash’ factor to any gig or concert.

hey fags, dear mr ritchie,
how come i am not in your band, i could write the lyrics about.. child molesting, granny bashing and gay hate?
just a though guys, but i have wrote you a song, here are the lyrics.

OH Oh Oh OH! OOOOHHHHHHHHH!
I grabbed my cock,
stabbed it with a fork.
whilst listen to bjork,
cos i'm a dork.

My mums vagina,
is sort of kinda,
hard to find,
cos after giving birth to me,
it turned her vag into,
half a pund of diced mince!


Do u guys like it?
I hope so.
