Rewind Presents: The End of The World

Friday 19th December saw us return to live performances after the setbacks that seemed to have plagued us for the last 6 months. We gave a 40 minute set to a small but seemingly enthusiastic crowd and seemed to be well received, even the two new songs that were given their first live airing, 'Tainted' and 'Republic Of Heaven'. We also played a cover of 'There There' by Radiohead, always wary to take on a cover from Radiohead as some songs can be so damn difficult...

Radiohead - There There



All the other bands who played were brilliant especially Tweak and Explicit Symphonies - who performed admirably without a bassist or permanent vocalist. Tweak also have a festive new EP to get everyone in the mood for Christmas - http://tweaktheband.bandcamp.com/album/tweaks-christmas-present

Tom Hardie also provided excellent photographs of all the bands (see below), such professional photography at his age has also got him a good following - TH Photography (Facebook)

The last few months also saw us get to a few milestones in the band, some more worth shouting about than others:

  • We reached the six month anniversary of our last gig (O Shame!)
  • We managed to reach over 1000 accumulated plays on Soundcloud, for which we're very grateful!
  • Possibly most importantly we got ourselves onto a mentoring scheme with MAS records which provides free structure, industry advice, practising and recording to young bands on the scheme. So in short, big things lie ahead, keep posted!
So here's to a good Christmas! And if you can spare the time a free download of Comfortable Prison:




Cheers, Mason.
