I am so bored with Reuben . I thought the last live gig I went to was crap and I really hate the last 2 singles.

What's all the bad vibes against Reuben? I thought their new stuff was great. Definitely going to Edinburgh venue, two favourite bands in one night, yass.

And Sum 41...still imagining the looks on little pop punk kid's face when Dave starts shouting "YOU. ARE. SHIT!"

I dont think Reuben and Engerica are very good, but if anyone wants to talk about Caretaker....

I disagree, Jamie's well good on the drums, even for a guitarist! Sounded great when I saw them at Josephs Well recently

If your talking about Jamie from Reuben playing for caretaker, then no he is not a good drummer, there old drummer was incredible, but i dont know if youve actually heard any caretaker so perhaps you dont have the other drummer to compare him too.

Re: Reuben, Engerica and Sum 41. Bedfellows are strang

no, I only have them rated in my bands list because I just think they're cool.... fuckin idiot

By saying 'incredible' do you mean 'show off'?

Caretaker are a good band but they are quite dull on stage, sometimes being a musician isn't all about technical ability you know, Jamie plays exactly what he has to and that's all it needs.

Do you drum?

caretaker were rocking pretty damn hard in glasgow earlier this year, certainly not boring on that night

Re: Reuben, Engerica and Sum 41. Bedfellows are st

totally, they rock hard but i just think they lack stage presence, I just thought they all looked really nervous and not too comfortable, just my opinion, might have just been that night

Re: Reuben, Engerica and Sum 41. Bedfellows are strang

have heard about Engerica, are there any bands they sound similar to? My rated bands are kinda melody with rock, I'm hoping that's Engerica too

engerica are pretty cool. odd lyrics. pretty spazzy. some good riffs, bit grungey, bit punky. bit quite catchy songs...well some of.

I saw Reuben and engerica in Newcastle. I think reuben are past it to be honest. I don't know if Jamie has come down with asthma or something but he seemed terribly out of breath nearly the whole set (i left early). Engerica were the bogs dollox though and I can't wait for them to commit something to cd. The strength of the set they performed proved they have enough material for an album

What the hell is with this anti-reuben stuff?

Reuben continue to be one of the best bands to see live. And its all because of Jamie. Jamie is an excellent frontman. Plus this is them releasing their second album within a year. Their putting loads of effort into getting everything out of them and into their music and it really shows.

Reuben are one of the best bands in britain right now. Challenge me. I dare you.
