No bullshit... 3 guys from this band are on our local University's football team. (that's North American football for you Euro guys.) The drummer is the Quarterback, lead guitar is Left Guard, & the bass player is a Linebacker. The rest of the lineup is rounded out by an English major (what a contrast!) & former Bloodshoteye vocalist, Mark "The Portuguese Devil" Aarruda.

Anyway, tried to break my own mold here, so I went single mic guitars, which were twin Schecters. My Hellraiser, & the other guy had a Blackjack. Nice matchup!

.....I'm getting close to pushing this one out, so please feel free to comment.

Here's a pic of those twin Schecters:

I dig the guitars and the overall vibe of it. Vocals sound a bit dull to me, and the OH's are a bit thin for my tastes, but other than that, it sounds cool.

That said... was this recorded to a click, at all? The drummer is really, really inconsistent, timing wise.
 
I don't like the vocals that much, guitars are ok.

About that Euro guys thing, I'm from Germany but I was linebacker for about a year (and still would be, but school, band and girlfriend...) ;)
we know "your" football, too ;)
