Our first band review... after about 5 gigs :)
Suffrajets gig.
Local boys Third Floor Incident were the first band on, yet again poor organisation managed to kill off the suspense for the first lot of music for the night, an hour long wait was far too long to wait in a hot and noisy room.
The band themselves were a real surprise, their Ramones style punk was incredibly tight, with some outstanding guitar solos, the rhythm and guitar section are clearly very talented. However, it must be said that what lets them down is their vocals and lyrics, throwing in every single cliché in the book (the first songs lyrics seemed to consist of We want to get drunk and a lot of filler), lots of pointless soundbites of lyrics rather than something that flows and progresses.
The vocals were far from spectacular, their frontman is no natural singer, and it does show and drags down the whole performance. A real lack of range makes each song blend into the next, which is a real shame. If they can find a talented vocalist and lyricist, this band could be a minor revelation. As it stands, they sound like your average pub band, which is a lot less than they deserve to be.
The venue was extremely quiet at the start, with possibly the first ever three-man moshpit being the only ones to take to the dancefloor. Im not sure if theyre going to be reading this, but well done guys, it was top quality entertainment!
