my band is two hours up north and they record at THEIR friends house which is in NYC, 3 1/2 hours total up north from me only an hour or so from them. i kind of find it hard to take your criticism seriously though, since you seem to think a band is only as "decent" as the quality of their recording equipment and/or budget.

i make music because it's my passion and i enjoy it, not to get famous and make money. that is not nor will it ever be my intention, i make due with what i have and i'm sure i'll be very pleased with it.

Hard to take me seriously?
It sucks that your other bandmates live so far away, but the whole point of a band is to be together and practise and create something. That's great that you're passionate about it; I am too. I'm not seeing where you think I solely want to profit off the music I create. I'm just obviously more passionate about it than you, because I don't want the quality of my creations to be complete and utter shit, especially when I can do better than the low budget demo CD's that my $20 mixing software spits out.

Tons of passion in this list, right?
These people play music solely for enjoyment, right?

Mindless Self Indulgence released like 4 different versions of the exact same CD. They are in it largely, if not solely for the money, and since these seem to be your favourite artists, it's hard to take -you- seriously.

No one would like these bands if their discography was nothing more than shitty casette tapes.
I was just offering advice on how to get better quality recordings for a very cheap price, which you obviously care about to an extent since you took the time to ask for what's better before purchasing your mic.

wait, is my band name the same as any of the bands i listen to? are we the same band? huh, no? whew good okay just checking. had to double check we're 100% completely different polar fucking opposite things for a sec, just to be sure.

good thing, i was worried.

















you wanna argue like a little 12 year old and throw childish feeble insults as soon as someone opposes something you say, the diablo forums are that way .

enjoy, now fuck off.

Oh, wow, thanks for clarifying, although there could've been more meaning to me posting that list. You know, since people are usually very musically influenced by the bands they listen to, which would explain why your list is comprised of the typical scenester bands and you know, how you're the typical scenester, so you're not all that different. It's alright though. You'll realise you're a total tool like the rest of the dumb kids who listen to Senses Fail. It just takes time.

Hi i'm Wretch. You're most likely here at my profile because i just severely angered you or gave you some supreme verbal abuse, and you're hoping to find something personal information in my profile to flame me with. Good luck, faggot!

oh the irony and hypocrisy of it all.
You best leave and not check this thread again, because a 14 year old girl has just put you in your place.

Being musically influenced by a band is not synonymous with following the same motivation. Quit being such a pompous jackass.

Innocent, just shut the fuck up please.

If you do not know why someone plays music because it's his passion, I'd suggest you leave this sub-forum.

/E: No problem Wretch, just throw me a PM if you have any questions.
