And Rest Room means, um, toilet. So the album is called Toilet. Surely someone, anyone, could have put their hand up and pointed that out somewhere along the way.....
Not to mention that the 'Independant music awards' are hosted by some dodgey christian American website..
I know this is all a bit mean, but if your gonna talk up yourselves in such an overt way, be prepared to have it slammed back down to earth.
Perhaps you should simply let your album find it's own way through the marketplace without these ridiculous advertising statements - they just don't ring true.
I know about as much about the IMA as I know about you mansion so forgive my ignorance but where did you get the info on the IMA being part of a dodgy christian web-co....
On another note, they have a pretty impressive judges panel
//On another note, they have a pretty impressive judges panel
It's strange, they have some great backing (judges, sponsors/"partners"), but their website really sucks, and they spend a lot of words hyping themselves up to try & generate interest, without actually saying anything. Also, the photos of the judges look like they're not actually submitted promo shots, but have just been ripped off google or something.
..granted, perhaps it's just a case of Bill-from-accounts-who-wants-to-be-a-web-designer told the organisation they needed to "get with the times" and offered to do them a site in return for letting him fuck around with webmonkey tutorials all day..
That's great you feel flattered. I rip the shit out of your band, I feel good - you read it and feel flattered, you feel good. Everybody feels good! I can get heaps more worked up how terrible your band is, and in theory, you'll get more flattered. C'mon, lets get worked up, where do I find some Recliner lyrics?
You're right....I do hate your band.....do you also speak with....... big pauses between your phrases?......are they there so I can digest...... the importance of your..... words......or...is...it.....because.....you're......reallly......upset.........that...I...dissed...your band...
haha. hey mansion. I appreciate the irony of how your first posts were all about telling Dan Thetto to cool it with the constant abuse of Voom and how he was becoming a broken record...now you're heading down the same path yourself but with Recliner.
the irony is you've become exactly what you came on here to defend against. ie: your attitude is actually oppostite to that of which you have stated. hence ironic. not exactly 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife ;) but close enough.
Man, why do actual band members get involved in these discussions, it's SO annoying. All I want to do is have a good old diss of an album and then the fucking lead singer turns up all with all hurt feelings and shit. Can't they just observe from a distance? Don't they know it's not a good look to go on and on about how they believe in their music and how great they think it is. Can't they just write with pseudonyms like everyone else, and have a decent fight about it, pen name to pen name?
This is a distaster, I might even go and buy the record, I feel like shit now..... no... I can't buy the record. Perhaps I'll get in out from the library if it makes it to the library, I ring the library today and ask them to order it.
well ... you wave a red rag to a bull and what does it do... charge. Of course i'm going to reply back! but really mansion if you've worked with musicans you know why we get involved... because this is our "shit" and it needs protecting... this is a forum for interaction right?... not a firing squad where you get to line up artists and masacare them with the added bonus of a pixie caramel to gag their teeth & tongue so they can't spit back at you. So there you go... email me your address (belinda@smashphotography.co.nz) & i'll send you a free album to form an opinion on... you don't have to dig it... there's enuff people who we respect who have lavished it with praise
Ok the ............dot dot dot in... between ..the... words... remark was a cheap shot, and saying your album was like pooh was just an extension of the restroom post - I'm afraid you guys left yourself wide open for that dumb gag. But the rest of was I said was simply opinion.
well this is better... so you are not some weird axe murderer! i shot it in the loo... i chose the location & the title... you don't think i knew what i was doing and that some dumb arse might make some cheap remark... we love the concept, still do... but that's just our opinion... i take it you've had a good considered listen to our album for such extreme hate to be exuding from your keyboard? we have independently recorded & released this album , we believe in our music... you don't, lets leave it at that belinda Bradley vocalist
ha ha... yeah it's Mansions staircase!:) well no, it's a set... we were really fortunate to have help from a set designer & a couple of set chippies to build it... some it was left over from another shoot. We got busy painting, varnishing, wallpapering & 2nd hand junk shopping for props... like most vids made here, we are hugely indebted to talented crew who freely give their time & energy, as well as having a film director in the band, which always helps. And those pyrotechnics that set the staircase alight, they certainly love their job!

Ah yeah mate - because it's a place for musicians to let loose, get real and unadulterated. Not a place for pompous pretenders.
