Excellent Kiwi Music!

The Unbound are a hot new duo. There music is THE shit!There single "Ordinary Girl" is getting heaps of air play,and has been played on Coke new releases and C4 music tv. So any of you record/music industry people take note,get in on the band wagon while you have the chance, these boys are going to make some serious cash$$$$$$$
I know because Im a friend of theirs, and everytime I hear them play they blow me away with their AMAZING talent.
So if you like feel good music,then buy their single,you can check out their music on www.theunbound.co.nz or on the Amplifier webpage.

Ok Whatever crazyperson, you must be tone deaf!

What was that really shit Teen program that was on like 8 or so years ago. There was like a brother and sister, a chick bass player and there was this "rugged" bad boy lead guitarist, there was also a really weedly little manager gimp running around as well. At the end of each show they would play a really cheesy crappy song. For some reason, this music reminded me of those simpler days

I believe you're thinking of California Dreaming. It was basically Saved by the Bell with musical instruments. The band was called the California Dreams - it was made by Peter Engel, the man behind Saved by the bell and Hang Time, which was Saved by the bell, with basketball.

two things.

1. why is the site built in flash? flash is lame, unless it has a specific purpose.

2. spell check. especially the names of the bands who have influenced you.

yeah, thats some real ugly site design. ..

i'm not saying i'm a website expert (getting there) , but there's nothing there that couldn't be done with html/css and maybe a little bit of javascript for all the wanky image rollovers. . .

flash is wicked for certain things, but to me coding your entire site in it prevents plenty of people viewing your site - i only have a flash capable browser at work becasue i installed it on the sly ..
it loads really slowly for the amount of content they have there as well...

and are the low-res images a stylistic thing (an attempt to be retro)? or are they too lazy to make good looking images to promote this 'band'??

hehe. and better yet, it automatically resizes so that it's slightly too big for my browser window. Nice ie-box coding??

what they mean to say is: it looks ok, and keep giving it your best

yeah, that too. in short: either fix (resize) or replace the flash, check for typos, and you'll have a nice wee band homepage on the go.

having some quick music samples is a very good idea. the number of band websites that don't offer music clips continues to amaze me.

Thanks for the negative comments, thats the trouble with when kiwi bands that are trying to break through people like you diss them, until they actually make it then u praise them.The worst thing is you guys are so predictable. It would have been a surprise to actually get some optimism or positive coments for a change. NZ needs to get over its tall poppy syndrome and encourage each other. So basically this is the last time I will post a thread on this forum and u can all kiss my arse.

one person criticises you about your music, and you're already making the 'Tall Poppy Syndrome' call?

Tall poppy syndrome is a fallacy. What kiwis have is Looks a bit like a weed, fetch me the herbicide or it'll take over the whole bloody garden and then we'll never get rid of the fucker syndrome

What do you mean already, Noizy? Bob69 had been a member for six months and had made 11 posts before he said TPS. Does that count in newbie bingo?

with you there noizy ... obviously bob was looking for glowing reviews, but if you hype something up the way he's done, then he's going to have to accept someones going to point out a few flaws, it's nice he's a mate and all of the blokes, but I think this is another case of a mate who sees no wrong, I can't comment on the music as it wouldn't play for me, but if you post something in a public forum, expect that not everyone to see the sunshine .. anyhow as I see it most people were commenting on the website, not the music ....

//Looks a bit like a weed, fetch me the herbicide or it'll take over the whole bloody garden and then we'll never get rid of the fucker syndrome

...and the only reason people refer to TPS is because the true acronym is a complete shitter to remember.

//So basically this is the last time I will post a thread on this forum and u can all kiss my arse.

Well, I'm gutted. Who's going to expose us to amazing new music now that Bob's gone? If Bob's going, I am too. U can all get fucked.

Mee too. You guys are aall asss-hoooes. I'm Goin Home...

Someday we'll look back and remember the day Bob came into our lives .. then celebrate the day he left ... bye Bob.

Bob69- I don't want to rain on your parade man, I'm glad kiwi music is geting you enthusiastic- but beware the 'hype filter' on this forum. People tend to keep it real, so go softly- a few key facts like tour dates & supports, album release dates etc. always go down well & without a fight.
