"singles" are looking for THE

GUITARIST/SONGWRITER.

COMMITTMENT is absolutely CRUCIAL. (Couldn’t emphasise this any further), as we have an almost FULL-time schedule and lots of good things going on, UK and abroad gigs, recordings, radio appearances, management, companies interest and much more...(…) Our old guitarist just packed it in out of the blue...

NO TIME WASTERS, NO PART-TIMERS, or people who give up at the first difficulty!!!!!!!!REALLY!!!!!!If you're in, you're in through thick and thin!
It is emphasised for a reason.

BUT:
if you really are passionate about being in a band, writing songs, believing in your own creativity, gigging throughout the UK, and having more than "some" ambitions then...drop us a line! The area is Birmingham, West Midlands, UK.

That said, here's the influences (some of them, we're not that inflexible, but *NO* HEAVY METALLERS):

The Smiths/Morrissey (OF COURSE!), Pulp, Bowie, Blur, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Muse, The Clash, Manics, Garbage, Roxy Music, The Verve, The Jam, Elastica, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, The Housemartins, Bauhaus, Mansun, Duran Duran, Joy Division, Suede, REM, The Strokes, Iggy Pop and The Stooges, Wire, Radiohead, T-Rex, Rolling Stones, The Kinks, Super Furry Animals, Idlewild, Divine Comedy, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Cult, The Fall, Black Box Recorder, and lots more...

Intentionally pretentious, well-marketed middle-class University-lay-about band seeks guitarist with stars in his eyes. Must be an unashamedly hedonistic glory-hunter with a penchant for making archaic literary and musical references in an effort to woo both drunken art students and record reviewers. Must be a slave to the notion of fame. Tired cliches welcome as long as they are well disguised. Employment history outside of the music industry should be minimal - your hands should be callous-free, reflecting your dedication to decadence. When speaking of current musical project it is imperative all potential band members insist on the immediacy of “getting signed” so as to elevate both the hype and urgency of the band. Must have a supportive mum (or financially stable girlfriend) to catch you when things go awry.
