My band


Hey eXceemers!!!

Long time no speak, been on holiday for a bit and then been busy with my band!

We've been together for just over half a year and we have written 10 songs, but only one has been professionally recorded. It is called 'on the edge'.

If you guys would be able to take a listen to the song, that would be great. You can stream it for free off either our reverbnation (Legal In The UK | London, UK | Rock / Alternative Rock / Punk Rock | Music, Lyrics, Songs, and Videos | ReverbNation) or on the facebook page (Legal in the UK | Facebook)

Any reviews would be great

Thanks!
Jamie

The only thing I didn't like was the guitar bendings. As a guitarist myself I would not do so many bendings and also the bendings are veryyyy slow
The song is great but that's what I think as a Guitarist.
Bendings are fun to do but do't overdo it

I do agree with you on this - the lead is the only bit that I don't like much - I'm the rhythm guitarist though, can't solo to save my life - thanks though, will pass that on to the lead guitarist!

I noticed that the 'Official Store Legal in the UK' button doesn't work; a new window opens and shows 'Unknown design'. And why the lyrics of the song button shows 'written by .. Produced by .. Recorded on 9 July ..' ? Shouldn't it show the real lyrics ?

I suppose the website is just not finished yet, huh ?

The website is powered by a site called ReverbNation - I haven't actually received the log in details for it yet but it should show the lyrics - must be a mistake there. Thanks for letting me know - as for the store, no idea to be honest, nothing is available for purchase currently, maybe that's why?

Thanks!

That's the best song on there imho.
Quality wise and generally, it's got a lot more to it.
I personally like the fact that it actually builds to something, some of the others are very 'samey' throughout. I get bored of a song if I think there's nothing exciting coming up.

But yeah, that's defo the best one. Nice one.

cheers dude, the 'demos' are reaaally... just demos... recorded on an iPhone, so they're nothing anywhere near release, they're just up so people have a small idea of our sound.

thanks for the compliments though

Hey guys!

So this hasn't really been updated recently, so here goes!

We found a studio to record everything at, and we worked as often as possible on finishing the album. The day has finally come to announce that the album is now available on iTunes/Amazon MP3 etc.

If you want to take a look at the previews on there that would be great! If you do like them, please do buy the track/full album. It's cost quite a bit to get finished and we need to try and break even.

All's Wrecked In Love and Rock by Legal In The Uk - Download All's Wrecked In Love and Rock on iTunes
All's Wrecked In Love and Rock [Explicit]: Legal In The Uk: Amazon.co.uk: MP3 Downloads

Thanks guys! Would love to hear your thoughts.

Jamie

Quite a bump I know, but the band's going pretty well at the moment! The album (see post above) is selling well and is getting good feedback from radio DJs and producers, etc...

I'd really appreciate it if you could like us on Facebook.... we want to get to 1000! the link is Legal in the UK | Facebook

Cheers guys!

I like the rhythm/lead guitars, but not the singing particularly.
