It doesn't matter as I'm just gonna log off my girlfriends laptop now, drink and have a fucking better friday night than the rest of you. ;)


In scummy Ipswich, I highly doubt that.

That solo in the beginning of Nightmare Asylum.. was the guitar out of tune? It sounds flat to me, although I may just be a tone deaf cunt.

Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

Fucking tough crowd!!
Thought it all sounded good to me, im a music fan with no particular genre of taste! Not really picking up on the out of tune guitars and such like, but on a straightforward way of reviewing it, yes i would buy it, yes i would listen to it!!!!!

That's exactly what I thought.

I'm still loving the songs though, looking forward to getting hold of the EP sometime soon.

I think Straight to Hell is your strongest song - I don't think the new recordings are anywhere near that; but kudo's to the vocalist on the new recordings, I reckon they're definetly the:

a) most improved
b) most consistent over the recordings.

well... i better make an announcement soon then... mwahhahahahahaha!!

By the way, i still stand by what i said. i think Elimination are a solid and interesting thrash band with a decent amount of NWOBHM influence to make them stand ot of the crowd. martin is a horrible cunt but he does however have a satisfing lust for being different and here is where i see the conflict. also martin is a cunt.

The thing is this. Martin will give criticism that's fair and honest, and it doesn't matter if we all disagree with it because he's a human and is bound to have different opinions, as we all are. But what happens is usually that whoever's being criticised gets upset about it and this makes our Martin angry and he goes mad, and I can understand it. If you don't agree with the criticism, fine, but don't bloody cry about it and say ridiculous things like "oh he's not even a thrash fan anyway so his opinion doesn't count". Just let people have their bloody opinion! Now I'm going to look at some porn.

Seriously though?! With the other one it was just funny, we could have laughed at them during their set. Now I'll literally have to go to the bar and shake my head in disgust. They better be on first.

Wow this has been well productive! Yeah fair enough martin you don't like our music good on you i don't expect everyone in the world to like what we write, and yeah some of our riffs i would say are a bit cliched, but for a band thats only had a steady line-up for a year, put out 2 ep's and played a shit load of shows im not too upset about the fact people may find us a bit un original, cheers for everyones comments even yours martin i love your input!

Had a listen to that Nightmare song. To be honest, I'm amazed I made it past the lead guitar intro. An out of tune and a dreadfully boring lick. The main riff is way too repetative and the vocals sounded pants. I decided not to listen to the other songs.
