I am Ishmael <failed-the-hero>


Olin - The Mario Riff
Mack - Smoking
Ramsay - Driver
Duck - Bebo Page Duster

We all listen to a good variaty of music which hopefully shows in our songs, with variating parts from Tom Morrello style killswitch solos and funk rhythms, through aggressive Enter Shikari inspired breakdowns and even the occasional hip-hop beat thrown in.

Thanks for your support!

  • Songwriting and Gig Preparations

    Hello.

    Recently I have been working my "erse" off trying to write lyrics for two songs we are playing at the Crimson Tide gig.

    Today I managed to sort them out! So a full on Zed to everyone and a special Zee for Isaac lol.....

    The tunes we are going to be playing at the gig are as follows:

    1) In My Dreams
    2) Once More (Without The Feeling)
    3) Silent. Ecstatic. Times <------This bastard has been causing lyrical troubles!
    4) Landed On The Sun <------ Him Too!
    5) This Is What Happens When An Unstoppable Force Meets An Immovable Object
    6) Failed The Hero

    They are all originals and written by the vocalist..... lol

    Still the other guys have a massive input into them so keen!

    Hope to see yous there!!!!

    Zeeeeeeeeee!

    FTH began as a nameless duo; Colin & Duck switching between guitar and drums showing each other songs they had pieced together. After a while they figured this may have some potential and they should play these songs to others and see what reaction they got.

    It was still a while before Ramsay was added to the mix. After having a few people participate in a jam now and then Ramsay's previous band experience and good friendship with the pair made him a favourite.

    It seemed certain when he accepted to join the band they would therefor become a power trio. The creative juices came flooding with new material weekly, now and then adding a forth member to see what benifits this would add as Olin began adding vox, and toying with possible band names.

    Mack was then added as the lead, so that Olin could focus on vocals more. Then when the final touches were added, and Duck ran out of excuses, they decided it was time to hit the gig scene.

    I heard this page was just a front for an extremely sick and violent fetish porn group. Sources say that the latest video involves, goats, cream cheese, a plunger and a car battery.

    I was wondering what you make of these allegations?
