Be Bold! Be Strong!

Welcome to the 'band 4' blog.

This is a new project that me and Simon are working on, so called because I wanted a working title so bad that there is absolutely no chance of it sticking. This will be the fourth band we have been involved with - the name, and subsequently the name of this blog, will be changed when a suitable idea springs to mind.

I aim to document our progress *here* for the time being and I may make the updates more edgy as time goes on. I really need a ribbon for my typewriter.

So, the aim for this band is a return to the poppy sensibilities of some of our past work, but darker, subtler and... more Scandinavian-sounding. I think it's the way forward :D

We've had a couple of promising sessions (i don't really know what to call them, it's not really a practice and i can't stand the phrase 'jam session') and Simon has a bagful of ideas; although after last night we may scrap all the half-finished songs we were developing, for a more brooding collection.

Meanwhile I will try and determine the best course of action for home recording - when, where and using what equipment?
