Strangers With Guns Vinyl Run

[Pagan Saviour]

Jesus. Don't know where to start with any of that. Rock on lads.

[open face surgery]

people pretending they know us personally and like they had insider info what we we are like

Well, ye certainly removed the need for insider info to conclude on that! 

  

I for one hate when music does the talking for a band.

They also messed with Biafra's bio, changing it so say "and he should sign strangerswithguns

[StrangersWithGuns]

Logic of it was this, band starts (2019) everyone is in mid 20s, 3 albums and 1 ep in 4yrs then life happens, we are in 3 different counties, marriage, kids all that. We meet up twice a year since 22, this thing is done as far as uphill trajectory goes, a single a year since 22

So I thought, an angle I seen years ago, that either A)this will piss of enough people it will give us a substantial algorithm boost and might make a few g

B, someone like jello who's a oddball and proper punk might dig it somehow, long shot but worth a shot in this predicament

We hit the following bands

Beady Eye
Babyshambles
Ocean Colour Scene
White Zombie
Jello Biafra
Kyuss
Down
Oceansize
Nailbomb

Babyshambles fans appreciated it
Beady eye fans didnt care,neither did ocs,kyuss some dig it, sone said fuck you. Few jello fans complained, obviously the punks dont like the system being fucked with

Rest of em freaked and went hard

No regrets, like we shot our load, I did it ready to be called cunts, only thing that bothered me was people on reddit been like I know that guy and making shit up

Rest of em freaked

Well, if it's any consolation, you've reminded us all of the good old tragi-comedy threads on Metal Ireland.

In fact you may have started the first one on here. The first of many, all going well.

[StrangersWithGuns]

Oh it is, any amusement caused im happy with. Again, you try something like this and good chance everyone thinks fuck this guy, im ok with that

[Pagan Saviour]

Amusement/annoyance is all it's caused. It's a complete plonker move lads.


My favourite thing though is one of the lads out of Oceansize posted on SWGs Instagram "keep my bands name out ya fuckin mouth" 

[Circlepit]

Was this one of those situations where Spotify will say new release from a band but it turns out to be a completely different band?

The " imposter bands" music appears with the well known bands logo etc?

[CorkonianHunger]

5 minutes of fame for being a nuisance? Are ye not a band? Just write and record like everyone else. No one is entitled to being boosted by an algorithm.

[Maggot Colony]

Never thought I'd say this, but I agree with Gloria Cavalera.
