Antimatter gets only attention from metalheads??

[flebbie]

I wouldnt call their music metal.. and I almost only see interviews and reviews of them in metal magazines.. like this they only get attention from the narrowminded metalheads, especially when they are on an ULTIMATE METAL forum...

maybe I'm wrong, I was just wondering

 

[Strangelight]

what shall we do then?

 

[Cerulean]

Tour with some trip hop bands
Yeh I know you probably don't like to be labelled like that either but I'd rather call you trip hop than metal or even rock.

 

[Strangelight]

Trip hop? ugh what a horrible term. Ok, I'll phone Tricky and say "hey mate we will support you on your next tour" and he'll say "great, see you then"

 

[Cerulean]

Tadaaaaa, problem solved.

 

[Strangelight]

hehe

 

[pistol_pete]

you should tour with Rachel Stevens.......i'll give her a call !

i might even go and see ya's then.

What we need to do is invent a name for the music we play and then get loads of bands to copy it. Then we'll come up with our own style of dressing - probably black and purple tie-dye trousers and grey shirts on upside-down and back-to-front. Then the inevitable genre magazine will follow which of course will feature us on the front cover lots of times. Then Duncan can star in tv ads for 'Night Nurse' and I'll punch Posh Spice in the nose in front of a photographer for a large British tabloid. The rest as they say is history ...

I know you'll laugh this off, but I'm actually serious.
You should get a hold of whoever is managing Mew, get them to listen to your music and get on all hem tours in UK they're supposedly doing. Think it'll be a good match.

Never heard of them. What label are they on?

Duncan, this is seriously one of the best bands in the world right now.

 

[Allan]

They're on a major label. It says Sony Music Entertainment all over their booklet, is that a label? They're not your average big label band though, so somebody in their management must be looking past common commercial stereotypes.

I guess there will be all kinds of trouble with labels even if both bands agreed. I just figured if you wanted to reach crowds other than the ones knowing your metal past, this would be a good start, nobody associates Mew with metal, prime time MTV Nordic regular and everything, but I'd still figure there's a good chance fans of one of these bands would like the other. Don't really know who to compare Mew to, you should be able to find songs on all them fancy dl sites.

Here's a review that might give you an idea, though it's quite ridiculous at times (a band who effortlessly fuse A-Ha-style Scandinavian vocals with pulsating punk rock and dance vibes ) . They beat Radiohead on their "Gig Review chart" , not too bad I guess. But they were beaten by Blur .

EDIT: And their website: http://www.mewsite.com

 

[elzka]

im gonna see them on sunday, oooooh! its sucha long time that i heard the singer sing with his amazing voice..ooh..*dreams on*

not to mention his amazing eyes..

 

[Allan]

Seems we don't appreciate the same things about this band .

They're coming here as well in a few weeks, I might go, I've never seen them indoors actually. What I really want them to do is record another album though, 4 new songs recorded in almost 4 years, get on with it.

thats a kind of contradiction really

 

[Allan]

I meant somebody from the big label dealing with them must be looking past common commercial stereotypes.

 

[Morpheus]

recommend us stuff from this Mew band please!

 

[Bambi]

they sound like Rush form what i heard on that website . but rush in a bad way

 

[Crack Hitler]

Dunno bout that one, but I really really like 'em. Well atleast that latest album, Frengers. Gonna see em on sunday for the first time :hotjump:



And Thorsten, practically try anything from Frengers. I don't have the album so I can't tell you names. Elzka might help you with that. (before some of you make noise, I borrowed the album, didn't d/l it :Spin: )
