Hi everyone. I'm in a band called Anna's Island. We just had 3 of our songs posted up on Pure Volume and so I'm letting everyone know about it so they can go let me know what they think. We've been influenced by so many bands from Beach Boys to Metallica from Rage Against The Machine to Blink 182 and Incubus to Ben Folds Five - it's hard to put a genre to it. They say Rock/Emo. Hmm, more like Classical/Metal/Pop/60s/Rock/Jazz/Hardcore/Emo/New-Melo
dic/ Music. But not all obvious on these songs. Go check them out and post a message here. It would be greatly appreciated and I'd be up for knowing what is the people's favourite.
I'm off to Uni on Saturday so the band will be on hiatus for a while but we do have other songs to be recorded, and I have 2 others for download if you contact me. (talk2seb@yahoo.com)
Anyway please tell your friends to download it and tell their friends, etc.

Thanks

What is it about people who regard this as spam on messageboards? It's always the ones that answer, that are never the ones I'm waiting for a reply from.

I'm a huge fan of Ben Folds, and I'm in a band. We made music and I want Ben Folds fans to tell me what they think. Play CottonStar for the most Ben Foldsy, yet it's completely original material.

I wish people could just get over people talking about their own band rather than the othe messageboard crap.

This is not meant to be an offensive post, just pointing it out.

Thanks for your time. Who knows you might even like it. Leave comments about the music here...

Woohoo, your profile says you like Kula Shaker! That made me laugh out loud. Not cos I don't like them, quite the opposite; I just haven't heard them mentioned for like 8 years :)

I LIKE them! I have the album right next to me at this very moment as you have inspired me to go listen to it! No fun-making here, I assure you. :D

That was a lovely conversation but neither of you have mentioned my band. Have you listened to the music? I recommend downloading the tracks because the quality is otherwise quite poor.
Anyway thanks for your time.
Nice to meet you both.

Just trying to actually get some relevant posts...What's wrong with that. If people actually bothered posting something interesting it might get...interesting. No-one has even bothered mentionoing our band's music.

Just because no one has "bothered mentioning" your music doesn't mean that their posts are irrelevant or uninteresting. I don't think you're too worried about posts being relevant. You want people to download your songs and rave about what a musical genius you are, and that's just not going to happen. People don't respond well to assholes, and the sooner you learn that, the better off you'll be.

Bezley, dude, to say sorry I am dowloading as I type. Be warned though, I have a reputation for being brutally honest. Ask anyone.

Blackteeshirt. Please don't refer to me as an asshole.
That makes you more one than me.
I'm not expecting people to rave about my musical genius at all. I just want someone on the f**king internet to stop f**king talking about f**king crap when I post a message like this and just answer the f**king post instead of being f**king retarded about it.
Look you've made me swear, and I never swear. (online)
Don't even think of being offended because I'm the least offensive person you'll ever meet. It's just all I want is an honest opinion about my bands music, which EVRYONE seems incapable of doing. If you're not going to even bother to listen to it, just please don't post anything, because you hotheads just get nasty, when people don't deserve it.

At least AnnaWaits was downloading, or so she says...
Thanks

That guy needs to move on and accept the fact that no one wants to hear his music.

I can't believe he still doesn't get the point after all this.

i can't belive he mentioned incubus and blink as influences, and expected the people on thie board to respect that.

I mean, while both bands have some good music, they are not liked much on this board.
