Yuli: Promoting My New Band, Etc.

Yuli 04.10.13	The band has already released Swingsets, and it's available for streaming/downloading here: http://amomentsornament.bandcamp.com/album/swingsets-dawn-breaks-like-first-love-blooms Check it out and spread the word, guys!
Yuli 04.10.13	Also, I'M ALLOWED TO RATE THE ALBUM SINCE I DIDN'T PLAY ON IT
ChuckyTruant 04.10.13	Didn't know you played drums, sweet.
Yuli 04.10.13	Yeah, man, been going at it for 7-8 years now!
ChuckyTruant 04.10.13	Oh wow you must be pretty good then! That's pretty killer, drummers are hard to find.
SitarHero 04.10.13	"Oh wow you must be pretty good then! That's pretty killer, drummers are hard to find." Ain't that the truth. Still not as hard as finding a quality bassist though.
toxin. 04.10.13	you should write a 5 review for your albums as another staff member (i nominate iluvatar) when you release one
taxidermist 04.10.13	Featuring your own list for self promotion is pretty shameful.
Jash 04.10.13	Nice man, congrats on making the band. Will check this out later for sure
Aids 04.10.13	like redskyformiles hasn't done that a hundred times
Aids 04.10.13	"Similar Bands: A Lot Like Birds, The Sound of Animals Fighting, Tera Melos, The Fall of Troy, Mew" if you're serious about Mew then I am into this for sure.
taxidermist 04.10.13	"like redskyformiles hasn't done that a hundred times" I...never knew < / 3
Butkuiss 04.10.13	@Sitar Nope, finding a band I can play bass in is the hardest thing.
SitarHero 04.10.13	Is that because you're not good enough or they're not good enough?
Butkuiss 04.10.13	Mainly because I can't find many people who share my taste in music in Sydney, and I'm a full time student in a pretty demanding course, so I don't have much time to travel. Plus, I have a pretty weird style of playing bass.
SitarHero 04.10.13	Yeah that sucks for sure. My band-mates proper are all studying in a different city about 80 km away so organizing rehearsals is a herculean task. To deal with the frustration I moonlight in a reggae band. Not really my style, but I enjoy the music enough to not mind playing it, and I get to play guitar.
SgtPepper 04.10.13	Congrats, man. I'll definitely check this out.
Dolving999 04.10.13	If those influences are anything to go by, this should be good. Hey SitarHero, you mentioned your band-mates all live apart from each other. May I ask what method(s) do you guys use to put together a song?
SitarHero 04.10.13	Well for the sake of convenience (and because my bassist is a lazy mofo) I've been writing and recording everything myself. I'll bounce demos off the other guys and they give me feedback and suggestions. So far we've written only two songs as a group. One was over the internet. I recorded a riff and sent it to them and they sent back their own parts. The other happened spontaneously during our first jam in nearly 6 months.
Yuli 04.10.13	Thanks, guys. And I don't see what the issue is here.. We've often featured lists that contain users' promising music, and I just happen to be a staffer! And if people enjoy checking it out, then the list serves a purpose.
wabbit 04.10.13	adam's last year on the site was based solely on whoring love american as much as humanly possible. Give him a break hanny
wabbit 04.10.13	John "ethical" hanson
Spec 04.10.13	Didn't know you were a drummer. Niiiice.
Brostep 04.10.13	I wish I'd played bass for 8 years, unfortunately it's only been about 2 and I only play for an hour or so per week. Big ups Jacob and I'll check it out soon.
TheSupernatural 04.10.13	Thrice concerts, good shit is bound to happen :D
