Who should DiS recordings sign next?

Jordan_229_2 [Edit] [Delete] 55 replies 18:31, 16 March '06

just because i write for here doesnt mean i have any authority, just curious as to who you think DiS recordings should sign next. no 'hilarious' suggestions such as JAG! or RazNdaVe please.

my choice;
www.thejaialaisavant.com

played twice at atp, second time the crowd was MUCH larger, so obviously gonna be big if they get promoted right.

also, if they write a couple more good tracks; www.theadambrown.com

or even From The Shards Of Comets! , a band from Nottingham who are looking really promising.

what do you think?

  • The visions?

    therapyrock | 16 Mar '06, 18:32 | X
    • I think you should sign the least obvious band there is

      like when Creation signed Kevin Rowland.

      prole-art-threat @therapyrock | 16 Mar '06, 18:34 | X
      • kevin rowland is a band?

        so if you think that then DiS should definately sign;

    • Operation Wolf!

      www.myspace.com/operationwolf

      might not tie in too well with the rest of the rosta though...

      nice_squirrel @therapyrock | 16 Mar '06, 18:34 | X
      • it's not exactly a predictable roster though

        crablin @nice_squirrel | 16 Mar '06, 18:35 | X
        • no, it's not

          sign Operation Wolf!

          nice_squirrel @crablin | 16 Mar '06, 18:36 | X
          • yay for operation wolf!

            i'm tempted to ask them if they want to do a single. 'kim deal or no deal' = CHOON.

            guntrip @nice_squirrel | 16 Mar '06, 18:38 | X
            • yay

              sign Operation Wolf!

              (I'm not in it or anything, just excited...)

              nice_squirrel @guntrip | 16 Mar '06, 18:38 | X
              • i know you're not in them

                as the drummer is a friend of mine ;)

                • operation wolf

                  No good for an album, at all.
                  Digital single, maybe.
                  Too one-dimensional.

                    • at nambucca?

                      it showed. a little.

                      nice ideas, but hardly WOW OMG LOL WOW etc.

                      Good for a spunktacular seven-inch though.

                      • yeah

                        to be honest, they were a LOT better than the last time I saw them (October, I think) and there were a couple of more than decent songs in their that they've clearly written since i last saw them. give 'em time, i reckon they could do something nice.

                        guntrip @Mike_Diver | 17 Mar '06, 10:44 | X
                        • yup, yr prolly right

            • someone needs to sign them

              they're awesome.

              actually, someone should run a label that only signs bands with wolf in their names.

              or !

              you'd never sign a bad band.

              homesick_alien @guntrip | 16 Mar '06, 18:40 | X
              • what about Panic! At The Disco?

        • I've always thought it's quite varied

          like... it touches a lot of bases.
          It's more just kind of... good... than anything else.

          (there were too many dots and not enough thought in that post)

          fionapinkstars @crablin | 16 Mar '06, 18:37 | X
  • crablin-joke account

    volcano! unsigned? definately then!!
    or www.anathallo.com , who touch some of the same areas as volcano! even if they are a bit more relaxed.

    Jordan_229_2 | 16 Mar '06, 18:33 | X
    • no, they're not unsigned

      but that never stops the majors.

      DOES IT, ATLANTIC?

      crablin @Jordan_229_2 | 16 Mar '06, 18:34 | X
      • hehe...anger

    • Johnny Boy. Seriously.

      They release "You Are The Generation..." about 6,000 years ago and since have been dropped, signed, dropped, abandoned, signed et cetera. I have a promo copy of their album and it is brilliant. One of the most inventive things to be created by a British band for a while.

      Sign 'em. Ah come on, come on...

      Panic @Trumpet | 16 Mar '06, 18:45 | X
  • yes!

    I love that song.

    nice_squirrel | 16 Mar '06, 18:46 | X
  • sign Trencher!

    TRENCHER!

    • Have you seen them recently

      They are so much better than they were last year (which was pretty damn good anyway) now. The new album is going to be the best thing ever.

        the first time was the Best Moshpit Evah and i hurted up my ankle.

        they should only ever play at 2:30 in the morning so that everyone is pissed up and ready to dance like a bastard.
