Is this Connelly singing? Doesn’t sound like him.
Don’t care too much for that track. Sounds like Filter.
And no, that’s definitely not Chris.
Yeah,definitely not Connelly on that cut…
You missed this thread for the same reason i did it say’s NOTHING about Chris or Paul in the subject just the name of a NEW group BTW I like the music I HATE the name what’s with this whole “bells” thing anyway?
Yeah, it’s kind of an unwieldy name. Doesn’t exactly drip off the tongue. Not the worst I’ve seen though.
I like it…Want more to really evaluate.
BTW I like the music I HATE the name what’s with this whole “bells” thing anyway?
Bells = Chris
Into = Paul (Lead Into Gold)
Machines must be one of the other guys. Or maybe a play on the electronic part of things.
How does Chris equate to Bells? I knew a girl who called her boobs her Bells but I don’t think Chris is a boob.
I figured the name was all Barker’s idea since he has used that mixture of things like Lead Into Gold and Flowering Blight. Seems like a weak name though. I would have picked something like Machine Gun Spunk Bucket.
He was in a band called The Bells in the late '90s.
Yeah,Blonde Exodus and Ultimate Seaside Companion had the Bells moniker…
When Stalin outlawed the church during his dictatorship he claimed that the sound of church bells distracted workers, so he had them all melted down and made into factory machines.
This really has nothing to do with a fascination for bells, but I am definitely fascinated by Stalin and the terrifying mindset of dictators.I recommend the book “Koba the dread: laughter and the twenty million” by Martin Amis
Okay, that’s pretty awesome.
Agreed…
I think Chris and Paul should have named their new band “The Book Club” as a playful dig at Al.
Seriously though, the demos all sound awesome and I can’t wait for this release.
Okay, that’s pretty awesome.
yeah, I’d never heard that story.
Chris, do you guys have distribution ideas already? is it going to be a straight download or will you be putting out a physical release?
Late,
grmpysmrf
now that i know that, i like the name a bit more
Yeah, I’m not sure about the second one. Seems really out of place. Maybe it’ll work better when you can hear the full record.
The post punk stuff and the Bowie crooning stuff seem to be at odds. Looking forward to hearing the whole thing.
