I will admit that Trust vs. Mistrust and Spy vs. Spy seemed a little like The Strokes. They were still good but I didn't like them as much as the rest of the album. Your lead singer has an impressive range, though, going from high pitched, angst ridden vocals to almost Lou Reed like monotones. It almost sounds as if its not the same person from song to song (and if its not the same lead singer, I feel like a complete IDIOT right now). Its nice to see a group vary their sound so much from song to song.

So far my favorites are Brown Boxes, Oh Mandy, Direct to Helmet, Mountains and Japan is an Island.
We do have two singers. One singer sings on Brown Boxes, Direct to Helmet, and So Kind Stacy, and the other guy sings on the rest. Thanks for the comments though, it's good to hear opinions from new people all the time.

who sings? nick and...?

I'm one of the biggest fans (see: spinto raster on my wall circa a year ago) and I still don't know.

wow posting via PSP is time-consuming.

Nick and Thomas sing, most of us also do backing vocals as well.

Oh, Thomas sings? You learn something new every day.

Nick's the one that does Kind of a Girl, right?

Ahh, that makes sense. I used to think it was Jon.

All is right in my head now.

My favouritesterest song ever.


And Germy, you better, save at least 3 shirts for us. Or I'll eat your face. While you're on stage.

That shouldn't be a problem, unless we sell all 150 new shirts in one week on the tour, which would be all but impossible.

How much are the shirts going for?

Re: Spinto Band... Entertainment Weekly?!
 
$10

How much are CD's?


And you know Germy....We should all (Me, you, Dylflon, Dyne, FissionMailed [assuming he goes]) hang out after the show. Unless you have some sort of self centred groupie gangbang to get to.

CD's should be $10 as well (American dollars please!)

I'm down for hanging out, but I also have friends from my college coming to the show who I am staying with that night, so I have to be really friendly to them as well after the show and all that, but I'm sure there will be time. We also have to start our drive to San Francisco the next day, but it's only 12 hours and we have a day off, so that shouldn't be an issue either.

The groupie gangbangs happen in every city, I can afford to miss one, or you guys can take over for me.

No, Andrew HERRON is going. Not Lawley.

My dad has work the next day, so don't go planning something. I know I'd like to, but we'll just have to see.

I call shotgun with Andrew.

Hey, Phil. Does your dad have to drive us? If we go two to a car can we not make it down there ourselves?


Questions to Sam:

Let's say I buy the vinyl record, is there any way you can also get those two extra songs on there to me by computer?

Also, I know you gave me clearance some time ago but I just wanted to make sure you'd still be cool if we used some Spinto music in some of our films.





OH, and there's a really cool interview with Thomas from TSB in Splendid magazine. http://www.splendidmagazine.com/features/spinto/
