About Me

Ahh the Quiet, the brushing of the trees, the whisper of the wind and in the distance the whirr of lonely cars gliding along the motorway to a destination unknown. It is the hour after the Riot Act, the lost hour between Saturday night and Sunday morning. Is it happiness, regret, embarassment, saddness or hope that you feel in this lost hour. God knows where you've woken up or how you're going to get home. Ahh yes the Quiet Act. Its early Sunday morning and i'm drunk but when I get home I'm going to listen to a record because it'll sound really good. I'll don the headphones and turn it up really loud and when I awake Sunday afternoon my ears will be ringing and my head will be pounding but it was fun while it lasted. Weird are recording their sixth studio album 'Quiet Act' up north in a very quiet place. See you soon.
The quartet, from Falkirk, Central Scotland draw from influences such as Grandaddy, Nirvana, David Bowie, Metallica and Alice in Chains, giving them an original and unique sound.
