Land of RAA
Bio
Band members names - role in the band:
Miguel RAA - singer
Dan RAA - bass guitar
Ricky 'rush RAA - guitar
Jason RAA - drums
Brief Band History:
Originally formed as a joke to take the piss out of the crap Cambridge music scene, became more serious and hardworking when we realised that we were becoming more successful than most of the other bands in the city, and although we have retained the spirit of having a laugh and never taking ourself seriously, we have started trying to write some decent tunes...however, for LoR, image is considered to be far more important than actual musical quality and we are in this to have fun, not end up as a bunch of ponces like evryone else that started to believe they were the next big thing, and hense end up failing.
Influences:
All sorts, the actual music of various bands is generally not as much an influence as it is the attitude we aspire to, Miguel wants to be Liam Gallagher, Daniel wants to be Twiggy Ramirez, Rick wants to be in Sonic Youth and Jason wants to be classified as clinically insane before he reaches the age of 21. Musically we are influenced by the whole grunge thing, nerdy college rock bands from the USA, Jason has a very hardcore drumming style and we have been described as indie with nu-metal influences when the songs reach their high points.
Life changing album?
'We Didn't Say That' by Daphne and Celeste
