and i'm sat here drunk and having a moment of feeling slightly frustrated by the fact that by the very nature of our independent labelish single release, there is no way of getting our illustrated video shown by the people that usually rather deal with lunching large labels who pay their way into telly....
that seems to be the way anyways....
so here we go...i'll get accused of shameless self-promotion i know....maybe it is that...but after the amount of hard work a bunch of us put in the only other option is like the screaming-in-a-middle-of-a-wood-and-wondering-why-it-made-no-sound option.
we don't even know where the doors are let alone have open ones...so....for anyone that fancies staring at a screen for 3 and a half minutes, here's our video...and if you like it then, well, i won't disagree, rip it outta me...x

i have a feeling i'll regret this in the morning

From the Archive - The Weekly DiScussion: is Glastonbury really the greatest show on Earth?
Nice
I heard your song already, I like it
lateness...
Well done!
Like it very much.
glad
i clicked on that. awesome!
That's a great video to a great song...
...but the shameless self-promotion isn't really complete until you let us have your myspace page (or whatever web page you've got...)
That is a brilliant song!!
Thanks for posting it.
Nima!
The video is awesome, love it. Your animated self is very true to you! The song is excellent too xx
I can appreciate the air of desperation in your post
So... The video is excellent. The song is good. And you have (at least) two hot chicks in your band. What's not to like... well, I have a couple minor complaints... but I dare say you'll be the NME's NBT. Good luck.
I'd like to disagree with everyone
but no... no, it's quite good. Better than "4am" by Cherry Ghost.
You deserve to find open doors, I hope you do
I love this song, and the video, especially after the explanation.
I know a door...it's by a little camp-fire beside a lake, ambient in pretty lights and noise, and it doesn't really take you anywhere new but we still have fun running through it, dont we? :D
x
thanks!
definately one of my better studying procastination clicks
this song
has been on repeat since it first arrived through my letterbox a few weeks ago. i played it on my podcast thing. tis great
oh fuck...
i totally forgot i did this until someone nice just pointed it out on our myspace....so i'm relieved....in fact super relieved...to click here and find that it hasn't been heaped upon with scorn.
I'm really glad you guys liked it :)
It's made a pretty average feeling day much better :)
Take care dudes xxXx
you make me think of
the half rabbits
...
i tried to check them out. seems like there's come similarities from what i read but i haven't heard any music yet x
Fucking hell
I just thought i'd tell the good people who checked out this thread the first time around, i just found out that mtv2 have decided to play the video at least this week and next.
That's pretty good as i was convinced it wasn't going anywhere...
x
We decide who goes and who stays
Try to remember that.
Congrats.
well done!
well done!
xxx
That is a superb song
I love it. Is this the same band who did the song 'Song of a Page'?
you are! I got that song on emusic
and that's great too.
Any chance of playing in Kent anytime?
Wow.
Great song!! Loving it
Genuinley great song
lyrics are sweeeet! Your band is excellent and you don't get that often from a bigging-up-your-own-band thread
Endlessly relevant thread.
When is the album out?
Will it be on emusic?
Actually, sod it, where can we get it on vinyl?
I can't listen to this.
There is a lorry out side scrapping against the ground like feedback and my head and throat are bleeding mercury. BUT most of all my office blocks Youtube.
Muxtape/Raw MP3 of it? It sounds rather interesting.
feck..
..i'm beginning to blush now but, well, the single just came out today and we're recording the album at the moment - even though i just semi-wasted a weekend of studio time on an idea that didn't work...
oh and vinyl, yes there are 500 of those ..places like rough trade...there were going to be 1000 but the czech vinyl manufacturers went bankrupt during our print run or something! ha ha :o)
I haven't seen one yet but my housemate did the artwork so they'll be pretty and apparently they'll be at our bush hall show on wednesday (plug!)...ha ha...what am i doing?
This is embarrassing.
All apologies.
i'm going!
If any of you do make it to the gig come and say hello to me tho :o) x
sleep well folks
HALF PRICE TICKETS FOR PEOPLE FROM THIS THREAD
we just wangled a half price guest list for our Bush Hall gig tonight and i thought back to this forum and how nice you chaps were and thought i'd just say, if anyone from this thread fancied coming out give me a shout on our band email by 2pm and i'll get you in on our friends list...
it'd be nice to say hello i reckon..
mail me at hushthemany@gmail.com if u fancy it.
Take care,
Nima Xxxx
it....
...might even feel like a gang.
Or maybe a community centre cos my housemate is baking cakes.
x
the video is great
the song is ok, fairly pleasant. Overall better than most of the stuff that gets plugged on here.
