Mark Sacked!

Just heard that Mark Ibbotson has been sacked by Terrashima due to the fact he is a nob and a pretty poor excuse for a singer I say fair enough he had about the same range as a singer as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Vin Diesel do as actors and as for the type of person i've only spent about 2 minutes with him when i met at one of their gigs a while back in Derby when they played with the now defunct Miss Black America and i must say what a total prat he was totally drunk and a total nobhead methinks he drank to cover up his inadequacies as a man and as a singer so good luck Terrashima may this will give you a chance for a fresh start with a proper singer not just some wineo you found loitering outside one of your homes...

Re: Mark Sacked!

a bit harsh i don't think he was that bad a singer have you heard the Peel session he sounded pretty good on that and also on the single he sounded half decent on that and as for his personality yes he was an alcoholic but it doesn't make him a bad person but hey at the end of the day it was a band decision they were the ones spending vast amounts of time with him so fair enough good luck Terrashima hope you find a new singer ASAP i hear Seymour Glass (ex of Miss Black America) is available (only kidding!)

Re: Mark Sacked!

i can't believe it one of the last true rock'n'roll frontmen, and he's gone just like that, you idiots no-one will go to your shows now, Mark was the only reason people went, because it definitely wasn't for the tunes as what tunes? but hey if Mark decides to try it alone i'll be there

Re: Mark Sacked!

well katherine, if that's your real name, you obviously know all about us don't you? hehe. yeah, mark was a great frontman, and we cudda gone a long way with him. he's his own worst enemy, and he brought it all upon himself, by being lazy, stingy, a thief and forgetting that it helps to be friends with the other band members, especially when they actively control what the band does. as for him going it alone? if he could get himself together and learn how to treat other people properly, then maybe he could do something with his life. as it stands, he couldn't organise a shit in a toilet. the end.

Terrashima

Hi there guys,I saw you at the ICA with earl brutus and while you were great to watch the 70s punk garage thing bores me now(no offence).So I was pleasantly surprised when I saw you at the barfly on sunday and thought you guys were a lot more interesting now.Vocals were a bit cobainy/craig nicholls for my taste but genearlly it sounded like Sonic youth records played at 45rpm with a dirtier Pixies edge! Now Im interested.

Layne.

Re: Terrashima

anyone heard the Dirty Lie single not yet released but i got a promo copy nah nah nah na well whatever its amazing you know why Mark's vocals the killer riff wow, although i have heard your new stuff thats ace too so sort of in a dilemma terrashima with or without mark?

okay decision time without tMark it is, Beef sounds ace live as does new single Sin sohanna is it not sure 100% of name also with mark as singer he ruined half the songs by just shouting name of song all the way through but still he did once perform with a carrier bag on his head which was cool, so thanks for the memories mark wherever you may now be but Terrashima have moved on and good luck to them so altogether people...

LONG LIVE TERRASHIMA!!!

Re: Terrashima

how can Dirty Lie be a new single thats like Mark-era Terrashima which is like so last year, this should be illegal i bet the record its being released on is praying the 'shima start to sell a couple of records so they can release this 'classic' (i've heard dirty lie live but that era terrashima meant establishing from live set whether an individual song is good or not was very difficult)

Re: Terrashima

missed out a few words from previous post its record label its being released on
+ end bit is meant to attack whatever record label its being released on as they are probably waiting for Terrashima to making it kinda-big or as big as a band as screwed up as this are ever likely to be
