No problem. I should be able to upload a few more tracks for you when I'm back at University, if you want.

Kurtz 04-10-2005 10:31 PM

Any early stuff would be great.

Thanks again.

Is this THE Devin Townsend that was mentioned in the article? Because if so, I'm definetely intrigued.

Riva 04-10-2005 11:02 PM

I really like Riff After Riff, not only because it was the first album I got from Bartender/Munky_Magik.

Great band, I love how they blend so many influences into a fun, energetic vibe based around punk/rock.

Yeah, it is :) He joined them as a temporary guitarist around 1995, and I think he did vocals on a b-side around their weird, [i]Endless Nameless[/i] period, in 1997.

When they reformed in 2001/2002, he toured as their support, and basically had fun thrashing the Wildhearts fan-dominated crowd to within an inch of their collective life every night.

so what's going on with Ginger? He was working with Brides of Destruction and then suddenly left...anyone know why?

munky_magik 04-11-2005 03:34 AM

I have no idea why he left either.
Apparently, according to someone on here, he's writing more solo stuff. He'll be doing something though, you can count on that.
I hope he just gets back to The Wildhearts soon, and decides to tour again :)

Bartender 04-11-2005 08:15 AM

I think the reason given was just that it wasn't working out with the Brides, with no more elaboration. I'm glad he left, though.

munky_magik 04-11-2005 08:18 AM

I'm interested as to how it would've turned out.

Six Foot Revolver 04-11-2005 02:54 PM

I haven't actually heard brides :upset:

misunderstood 04-11-2005 04:25 PM

^^you should give them a try. I personally don't think they're all that bad. Not the best out there yet somewhat different from everything else that is going around nowadays. I have their album and I think it's pretty decent.

Six Foot Revolver 04-11-2005 05:05 PM

which album do you recommend I get first?

misunderstood 04-11-2005 05:23 PM

They only have one album out..."Here Come The Brides"

Butch Walker 04-11-2005 07:30 PM

Ginger wrote, I think, 6 songs with the Brides, which should make the album, so that'll be something to listen for, but I don't like the Brides too much. I hate London and Tracii, and now that Nikki and Ginger have left, there's nothing that interests me.

The Wildhearts are wonderful, though, someone should do a full FA on them some time. If I had time I would, I may in future if I need to avoid studying for my exams, or perhaps Bartender might.

At the moment it's OCD.

Six Foot Revolver 04-12-2005 09:29 AM

Mine would be OCD or Vanilla Radio

Whenever I'm asked for a favourite track, Everlone is the first to come to mind. It's then very quickly followed by Sky Babies, Lovesh[font=verdana]i[/font]t, Show a Little Emotion, Suckerpunch, Sky Chaser High, Geordie in Wonderland, Splattermania, OCD, Vanilla Radio, Greetings From Sh[font=verdana]i[/font]tsville, Nothing Ever Changes But the Shoes, Do the Channel Bop..basically I don't know :) And yeah, I do have the newest live album (several people here do, I think), and yes, it is rather good.

Did anyone see them live when Vanilla Radio was still a fresh, new track? I saw them at a festival in 2002, and they had a midget dressed as Elvis running around all day*. It was awesome.


*followed by a camera; I think they were filming for the Vanilla Radio video.

Butch Walker 04-12-2005 12:34 PM

Delivery is free.

Six Foot Revolver 04-12-2005 12:36 PM

Butch Walker 04-12-2005 12:41 PM

Yeah, they ship from Korea or somewhere out there, so shipping is the same everywhere.
