Thank god for this thread. I've never heard of this band but went to check out the website and downloaded some tracks... Wow.

Ok after I heard of this band for the first time here today they were the featured band on myspace.com . You can listen to the entire New CD before release.

A guitar player who bows?! That must be a first...

I was in a band in the mid-90's where all of us played with serrated knives bowed very lightly on the strings (except the drummer, oc)... over a big PA it was just beautiful - especially with lots of open/unison tuning. We wanted to put together a second all-bass group using the same approach, but it didn't happen unfortunately.

I would have thought most guitarists had tried bows of one sort or another - most people I know have done it.

No probs, Hink - how about doing a tune for us with a bow? Do you have one? I'll collaborate...

You poor bastard. My sister's finally escaping Manchester in a month, and coming back to the Sunshine State.

The bloody rain is going to hand you Poms the Ashes, too - grrrrr! Just when Hayden was looking good again...

wOw, verY cOOL, very 'strange-thread' , for me.

Ive seen Zep, Ive watched Jimmy play his 'paul' with a bow. (it sounded AWFUL!!)
It had phase shifter , (a small stone), and a cry baby wha. Very noy'zee, and
terrible.

I think that the 'egg' with its magnetic pulse/pull on the strings, works nicer
and dose a better job.

You mean the ebow? Seems a little different though - more well thought out and less rock-hard
