"All this 80's indie sounds like shit to me, cos I don't like Joy Division, I don't like Morrisey" a-fucking-men to Jamie Lenman (Reuben)
August 28th, everyone from Hertfordshire needs to make their way over to Letchworth, because there'll be a special show of 4/7ths of Red Seas Fire playing a rare rock/metal show at a battle of the bands. Sam phoned me with the details, I thought it'd be a bit of a laugh, so I'm in the process of writing a 20 minute set for the occaision and when it comes, Myself, Nolly, Leo and Sam will grace the most likely tiny stage and tiny audience with a show the likes of that you've never seen.
So far I'm having some writers block, but that will pass soon and I'll get cracking, also I had a bad experience with Garageband yesterday (it deleted an entire song I was working on) and so every time I go on it i feel angry.
In other news, it's only about a month until I move to Bristol, really getting things started with Red Seas Fire, and I'm pretty excited to be honest. We're all getting pretty hungry to get things going, I definitely am considering it'll be nearly 2 years since I last played a gig on guitar.
Anyway, as always go over the soundclick.com/redseasfire if you want to hear some of the musings of my mind, which you will most likely hear grace sections of songs in the future, albeit pretty edited, improved versions.
Later!

Unemployed Student
So I hate being an unemployed student, and I really hate looking for jobs, especially when it seems like the person behind the counter has a smugness about it when they say 'Nah sorry we haven't got anything at the moment' and you just know they're thinking of you as a dirty scrubber
of a human.
Anyway, welcome to the first post of the new Red Seas Fire blog, where I'll update you on the bands' going on, as well as our individual endeavours. Also you'll be hearing about what music we're listening to, what we think of it, and the same with films too, and many other things.
So right now I'm in Nottingham, looking for summer work, because quite simply I need money, and where I call home, there's shit all for work, so for the past week I've been looking avidly for work all over, and I'm almost at the point of resorting to going into a Maccy D's and asking to work for them, as much as I disagree with that establishment.
Band wise, I'm slowly coming up with more ideas, and as of mid august I'll hopefully be moving down the ol' south west to look for somewhere to live with Leo, and as soon as we have a place, then the band will well and truly get going, we'll all (well, mostly) be relatively near to each other and will be able to have lots of practice sessions on the go, also Nolly and myself will be starting at BIMM Bristol, something I think we're both incredibly excited about, I know I am.
Anyway, I think that'll do for now, if you're in Nottingham, give me a job, if not then just listen to the new Fellsilent album, and then go and listen to The Arusha Accord and order their EP, because both are amazing.
Take it easy fellas and fellettes.
