the ran-tan waltz

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

Hi,

We have just uploaded some new tracks to our myspace.

http://www.myspace.com/wearetherantanwaltz

apparently we sound a cross between joy division/echo&thebunnymen/smiths/public image ltd

does anyone else see that... and is there potential there?

would love some feedback.

thanks.

Matt

Welcome! We had another band guy who hung around here for awhile, but I guess he quit. You will do nicely.

Hmm.. (Simon Cowell hat on) I like it.. and certainly better than some of the new bands I have heard on myspace recently. Smiths, yes some of the guitar riffs. Bit of Coral. Quite uplifting songs rather than the dark and gloomy sound of Joy Division or the Bunnymen (pre grey album). I'll have to think about some others. Odd but cool band name. Potential..? you have to ask the kids than us lot but you're through to the next round (Simon Cowell hat off)

Nice though that there's a band guy on here. Give us fat-arsed arm chair music critics a bit more authority.

Great stuff, the MySpace tracks are excellent. Welcome to the madhouse that is the VT forum, keep your wits about you and your arse to the wall and you should be safe.

fellas let the new guys learn the hard way
