Since you guys are the harshest people in the world

I thought, who better than to review a performance of Pendulum - the island pt 1 we played at our gig last week

Can I join your band? I am good with a triangle and I see that is lacking from your sound.

Re: Since you guys are the harshest people in the world

Ok, I don't mean to be that guy but...

You're frontman isn't a great singer.

You are boring to watch. You need to move around more and look like you're enjoying yourselves. Having been in 3 bands over the years, nobody wants to watch a band that stand still and perform. Unfortunately that's the way things work, it's not all about the music, it's about the performance and having stage presence.

 

But yeah, music wise, everything seems pretty tight. The sound isn't great, but that's small venues for you. You're in a room with high flat painted walls and ceilings, so the accoustics are just aweful.

 

Ok, just listening to Movies. The singer is completely out of time. Needs a LOT more practise.

 

Like I say, I'm trying to be constructive, so don't take this as me hating on you. Takes more than most people think to even get to that level, so well done on getting there, but as I say, you just need to work on your timings andstage presence.

No probs. Glad you took it the right way. Being a musician myself I know it needs someone to be that guy, not just everyone saying 'yeah, sounds good'. As I say, your singer is your main drawback (sorry if you're the singer. lol.) he needs to practise a lot more, especially his timing.

The singer gets bad reviews every time your band puts videos on here, still haven't learnt that one.

Re: Since you guys are the harshest people in the world

The main problem with your singer is he sings way out of his range. When performing cover versions there's always the templtation to fall into the trap of 'stars in their eyes' performances, trying to mimic the original vocals, which is exactly what your lead singer does.

He's perhaps not the best at timing and holding a tune, then again there's plenty of successful bands with the same type of lead singers, but he certainly needs to find his own range and style and sing within that to make it sound ten times better. He might then be able to concentrate on a little stage presence rather than concentrating on doing a good impression.
