    The Official Band/Project/Whatever (yours or anyones) Promotion Thread

    I just discovered possibly one of the best aussie bands ever. They remind me a lot of Mr Bungle, but they're really amazing in their own way. http://www.myspace.com/shanghaimyspace DEFINITELY WORTH A LISTEN!!

    Has SX hit their creative peak?

    I think people are getting confused between creativity and awesomeness. You could paint portraits like Mona Lisa for the rest of your life and you'd have a great successful career, however that isn't the least bit creative. Now think about Dobell's portrait of Joshua Smith. With respect to Mona...

    The Official Band/Project/Whatever (yours or anyones) Promotion Thread

    I can't even understand what is being said, so it just ends up sounding like really bad death/black metal. The comedy idea is kinda like a song I made with a friend once lol (http://www.myspace.com/analjoints).

    The Dungeon

    I think there will be either an instructional guitar dvd or mjr solo work before another album comes out tbh. There's bound to be a lot of left over riffs from PL that they probably don't want to go to waste.

    Symphony X and odd-meter grooves, key changes, and polyrhythms

    I think it comes down to how you write your songs. If you set out and say "oh well this song is going to be 17/8 5/4 6/7 3/4" then you're destined for failure. If you're jamming and that particular thing happens then it will more likely sound HEAPS more natural. Imo you should never plan time...

    Tubes

    The 12AX7's are pretty standard. There are of course tubes that were made for other things, with different electrical characteristics. They aren't ALL going to work, so it's best to stick with proper guitar ones. Not sure what else you would use them for these days though. Now that transistors...

    The Dungeon

    Yeppp he's the smart one. You get the net and before you know it you're on rubbish like facebook, and playing games all night. Music suffers.

    Exceptional songs from bands you otherwise don't really like that much
