the scotland scenario.


Of Scottish Blood and Symphonies by bubblegumrecords

Kinds of Loneliness by bubblegumrecords

i just realized it's been over 2 months since i've posted. however, it's within good reason as i was busy running around scotland for the past month. i returned to the states last week & came to the conclusion that edinburgh is where you go for breath taking scenery, drink warm beer, eat deep fried haggis till you burst, walk up an insane amount of hills, pretend you understand people from glasgow, have your heart broken into a million pieces & see a few bands along the way. maybe the music goes along with the heartbreak? all summed up - it was one of the most amazing trips i've ever had.

speaking of bands, one in particular, edinburgh school for the deaf, caught my ear while i was on the prowl. i first found out about them when i heard them record additional vocals for some tracks & luckily i had the pleasure of seeing them live, along with crawling up the walls & putting the drums in the crowd, twice before i left. if you're in the mood for something a little bit scuzzy, soft-soft-loud & with just a tinge of sweet distorted vocals, then this is for you. i have a feeling that given a few more amps, the wall of sound coming at you would be incredible.

i'm back folks, at least for the time being anyway......
