The Disasters




I don't know where to start with this band. From the MTV cesspool of being wannabes, this band is just thoroughly unoriginal. You can sense that they must have prac ticed in front of the mirror a lot try to get the poses right from what they saw their favourite bands do in music videos. The band's songsalso sound like nothing more but recycle parts of songs you've heard lots of times before and in better guises.

This is a band that not only needs a lot of work, but needs a new identity as well. It's going to take a miracle for The Disasters to really be anything worth watching. One thing good about the band is that they live up to their band name.

Lollipop Conspiracy

This band was an impovement over Almost Famous. Here was a band that knew at least the importance of having melodies you can turn along to set against you guitar parts. I actually could still hear some of Lollipop Conspiracy's songs in my head after the show. Lead singer Atrul shows plenty of promise and I think this band can do a lot more than it is curently. They just need to focus more on being a tighter band, overall through not too bad in spite of the warts and all in the band's performnce

Almost Famous

I counldn't the past the bands first song. They had an effect to my ears what two fingers down my throat would feel like. The band obviously has a lot of heart on stage, but it would hav been better if they used all that energy in writing some decent songs before deciding it was time to go in front of an audience.

By theband's third song though, I think I just got adjusted to how mediocre they were that i started thinking maybe this wasn't so bad. All in all, I would say this band can still improve.
