Hey cool cats, we thought we'd make the first comment on our own forum...simply because...noone else will. But for those(majority) that havent heard of us, come check us out at one of our concerts. We will keep you updated as to when we are playing. Our webpage is under construction at the moment so keep an eye out for it. Please feel free to litter your comments upon this forum....i'd probably keep all your "you suck's" to yourself, constructive criticism is much more useful...Thanks
good luck keeping those off bro, check out ours(mission gizzard) people will say exactly what they think just dont listen to the bastards and keep doing what your doing, and we'll see you at the top! the gizzard boys say hi
yeah dudez use are rockin as. i saw the video and it was awesome cool then i dreamed about you guys doing a photo shooot at my school. weird i know. hey also those photos of use guys on tho rockquest doco with you guys holding photos of yourselfs, they cool tool. ultracool to the max. yeah yeah.
Actually I heard on very good authority (Alpha Cast and Gestalt Switch) that you guys are actually pretty good. When can we expect an EP or something?
Putting "faltertheband.com" as your title on your website looks sort of dumb though. I'd change that, myself. That's constructive, right? Why not just "Falter"? People who make it to the website obviously know the website address is www.faltertheband.com, why do they need a reminder at the site?
The site looks really good though, nice legs astride pose.
Looking forward to hearing what you do.
Our first single "Falling" will be officially released after the last Rockquest programme this saturday 5pm tv2 accompanied by the video. We are still deciding whether to release a single or an E.P. But we'l keep you posted. Our single/E.P probably wont be out til sometime in January.
True Blink, you are indeed wise, but I still think most people would have the brains to check out the wb address in the browser address bar if they really gave a shit, or alternatively they'd add it to their favourites, both of which would negate the need for "faltertheband" to have to be written in large letters. I understand the need for the ADDRESS but not to have it splayed out across the home page. Anyway, whatever, I'll check out the rockquest program tonight.
In 1998, we came second in our region and celebrated (later that night) by buying a pack of Rothmans 20s and smoking them! I still find that sort of funny.
I like your name I do, I do. My dad walked past while i was watching rockquest and said thats a pretty good name. That coming from an old fart, you should be proud of yourselves. Nice.
Just watched your video on tv2 - You guys are going to be huge. Fucking great song, great sound, great everything - cool idea for a video too, although seeing all that gear destroyed made me a bit sad. I hope they were samicks or something.
Who did you record with at York Street? Steve Roberts?
If you guys want to play in Dunedin in 2004, give me an email and I'll hook up a gig with some of the locals, maybe an all ages thing : thedeputy_@hotmail.com
oh it would be soooooooo nice if they had an all ages gig in dunedin when i am down there. since i can't seem to see any up here in good old feilding. so if anyone cares, an all ages gig in dundein in early-mid january would absolutely rock
Clint murphy eh?....That guy is GOOD. Those guitar sounds are just fistfuls of tone - I'm impressed. And you can't go wrong with Malcolm Welsford can you? It seems every big rock album in NZ has to go through him before being released!
great stuff guys, excellent song (wish they'd play it a bit more on the edge!!!!!), a wicked video and to top it all off, i think you dudes have great hair. wish the guys from evermore could take a few of your styling tips... but then again, imagine dann with short hair... ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! good luck with everything and i will certainly be in line to buy the single/ep.
heard my dad watching the rockquest programme on tv downstairs, so i flicked it on upstairs and had a look-see.
impressive stuff guys! video was wicked, cool idea. though, wasn't too sure about the whole amps going down the slide thing - kinda ruined a good thing, if they had brought that idea in earlier it could've been a goer for me.....but yeah, those cool shots were great!
looking forward to seeing you at cusp now.
p.s. i'd have to agree with seez's hair comment. NIIICE hair.
jenni you are SOOOO wrong
i was pretty neutral about it the video till i saw the amps sliding on down
made me chortle
so taking that guitar and bass down the slide
any damage to them???
chucking them down a slide often is probably not that good for em...
oh its not the damage to the "equipment" i'm worried about. it's more the lameness of the whole amps sliding down the slide...it was overly dramatic and came across as if it had just been and idea thrown in last minute......may i add though - the whole amp idea was saved somewhat by the final P.O.V shot of a musician being wacked over by said amps.
Constructive critism aye. You need to fix the site, it works fine in IE but in other browsers, not so fine. Also just a thought, having to scrow across to the links really is a hastle, perhaps you could have them at the top under the "faltertheband.com." Another idea is you could include a message board on your site instead of people using this forum.
by the way... what products do you dudes use of your hair?? how do you achieve simon's messed up sorta spikey look?? i sure am bringing out the tough all important questions... man i'm gonna make a great journalist someday...
Hey peoples, this is the faltertheband.com designer aka flyboi, cheers for all the design critique. It's just a few lil' teething probs, cheers for bearing with me. I just set the guys up with an admin control panel today to update their 'news blog' and 'shows calander' while on the road.
Ps Falter you guys rock. I like Jimmy Eat World? Falter's more like Jimmy Eat Your Heart Out... Falter is here :) Don't miss the Nelson Show.
Ps. The site's optimized for 1024x768 at the moment so yeh, i'll be working on a 800x600 version soon.
Falter ~ you guys kick ass! Keep up the good work boys.
I have a plan: I missed the last rockquest episode and didn't get to see your vid. When you release the single, you should chuck the vid on the disc as well. That would be cool.
And congrats on making it onto the "Hot topics" list!
Thanks, i will be there with bells on!
It will be interesting to hear your theory on the meaning of life.
Can you please rock my socks off? I would appreciate it very much.
Saw one episode of the RockQuest prog a few weeks ago - the one when you first started recording @ York Street. Was sounding good! Looking forward to seeing Falter live @ the Cusp! :o)
i want falter 2 come 2 auckland and do an all ages gig they r such a great band and i really wanna c em play again!!!!!!
my cuzin from christchurch said that simon went out wiv 1 of her m8s in form 1 .... how cute!!!
.....
Hey guys, congrats on all your RQ success! Your song and vid were awesome, and you'll go far! Drop me a line if you're ever in Palmy and maybe we could do a show.
hey guys, just wanted to say that i think your videos funny as. lol. the drummer just crcks me up in it. lol i dunno why, just cos he looks like he's havin so much fun.
i have one complaint though. your song is just too damn catchy. walkin with my mate through town and he got it stuck in my head for hours. bloody hell. good job.
Sun 28th Decemaber - Dux De Lux
The boys from Falter put on a damn good show despite the lack of numbers in attendance. The song i enjoyed the most i think was called "fear of hieghts" or something along those lines. The slower song "splinter" was also good and showed what a great voice Simon has.
I hope to see a lot more of Falter in the future.
what is possibly the best song to hear at 5.30am when all you want to do is go back to sleep? well actually falling made me fall back to sleep (god, this sounds cheesy). what i don't understand is why they played it at 5.30am??!!! i mean how many people are listening to the edge at 5.30? sorry to all those who do listen at 5.30. i am generalising. the point is, falling was the best song to hear at that hour in the morning - anything else i would have made me cringe i think, or just not bother listening
