Hey,

I'm really happy to announce that I have finally finished my first full length album.
I spent months ( not straight, but that would have been nice )writing and recording it, it was a labour of love, but it's nice to see it finished.

You can listen to some samples on my websiteIF... The Website

My style changes from month to month, but this album is fairly subdued compared to the rockier stuff I usually write.

I hope you like it.

Thanks

Good stuff. Reminds me of Weezer...doesn't hurt that the vocalist sounds like Rivers Cuomo.

Do you guys ever venture down to the Buffalo/Rochester area?

Thanks guys.

I must admit I'm a huge fan of weezer, and I would have liked to think I was influenced by them, but I've never heard anything of them in what I write. And no way did I think I sounded like Rivers, but I'll take that as a compliment. Maybe it's there more then I think it is.

We're playing locally for now, it's tough when everyone works their asses off at thier day jobs, but we were talking about a big push this summer, we would like to hit a few US spots.

Eh, it's just what popped into my mind when I was listening. I think some of the chord structures/melodies reminded me of a few of their tracks and occasionally you delivered lyrics similarly. That's the best analysis I can do without having my Weezer albums here to compare to and see if I'm the one going crazy!

I do like the music, so take it as a compliment! It doesn't sound close enough to say you were ripping them off or anything, just reminded me of them.

That's cool, like I said, I don't see it, but I didn't think you were saying I was a bad Weezer coverband

I just added some flash stuff to my site.

Let me know if it looks cool, works ok, or is just plain gay

Thanks
