DarkBlue62 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Like them or hate them? I think they do very good songs. Maybe sometimes putting on the glaswegian accent a bit much tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toma_BullyWee Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Half decent band, awful vocals, cow of a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooky Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Check them on Spotify. Change is bad. I'm happy to listen to Bruce Springsteen for the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YIBBIDAY YABBA Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 got tickets to one of their gigs a few months back, purely to see the support act sucioperro. sucio ended up pulling out because of the swine flu. nae chance in hell i was going to the gig after hearing that. twin atlantic reek of cheese and you couldn't pay me to go see them. they're the kind of band 14 year old lassies listen to.

Alloa_Shire Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Downloaded there album last week and although i needed a couple of listens, I really really like it. They remind me of another Scottish band called We Were Promised Jetpacks. Not everyone's cup of tea but I like it as something different. I can't see Twin Atlantic having much success away from Scotlan though (like WWPJP) as the Scottish accent is just to strong, but still a decent band. Anyone know of any live dates coming up?

A_dee4life Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 You're Turning Into John Wayne has been one of my favourite tracks in the last few months. Good band but doubt they will make it really big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the snudge Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The accent totally ruins it most of the time... its not bad though! I just feel uneasy listening to them, if anyone gets what I mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty meadow Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Had a wee listen to '.... John Wayne' on Spotify. Pretty average stuff to be honest. The track 'Lightspeed' sounds a bit better. Probably give them a better listen when I've more time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toma_BullyWee Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The accent totally ruins it most of the time... its not bad though! I just feel uneasy listening to them, if anyone gets what I mean? I know exactly what you mean. It's just the vocals! If you take away the vocals they are a perfectly solid band, but the guys voice just goes right through me. Every now and then I'll stick on one of their songs, but you won't catch me listening to the full album again any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-r-cfc Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Cheers for that Paul, but i'm bloody working They are playing the next day, Sunday 7th at King Tuts as well if that's better for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Slight bump for this as I picked up the album after hearing "What is light? Where is laughter?" which, after one listen through of the album, is the best track by some distance. Maybe I'll get more into it but it's enjoyable enough just doesn't break any new ground and doesn't make you really sit up and listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinkinFighter Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 If this is anything to go by then the new album is going to be great. The album that is going to propel them to Biffy Clyro-esque mainstream success imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Those vocals are honestly the worst I have ever heard. That includes the screaming metal bands. That would be a good song otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
