Dublin seems to be a real trap for bands. Who was the last band to really break out? The thrills? It's kind of brutal but I don't think any of the current crop are gonna make it either..humanzi, channel 1, ham sandwich et al. |
maybe, maybe not... but all of the above are probably superior to de Trills. well, I reckon Humanzi definitely are, and others not mentioned, but 'making it' is almost a sign of being shit anyway, coz marketing rules the music business, not talented musicians |

Well I hope that making it is not a sign of being shit, and if it is, I think it's more a case of the public's taste being brutal than marketing. The Thrills are godawful though aren't they..

when you see so many good bands getting nowhere, while so many rubbish ones get acclaim, you can only think that that's the case |

Yeah, absolute shite and their long lost half-brother Damien Rice, who apparently is organising a carbon-free neutral area at the electric picnic, he's having a laugh! He has a lot of carbon to neutralise what with all the international air travel and cd packaging and all that.
