Group-Of-Musician Change (GOM GOM)

Friday...
Fridayy..
This Friday at Ric's We are now joined by GREENTHIEF as Jaguar are unable to play due to unforseen circumstances.

Wipedoubt - 8pm
Greenthief - 7pm




(Unforseen Circumstances shown above)



We hope we can share the stage with them soon enough though, look out for May/June for sure.

Over the last few days we went into a studio and did some recording for a possible internet-only single release that we might release sometime soon. Just to keep things mysterious. Who?What?Where?
Well, At the moment it's sound a bit like this...



But we think it will turn out pretty well though, and end up sounding more like a real WD song.

In other news, we're playing at Ric's again on Thurs April 8th before a special appearance on Mr Joel Smith's birthday at his party on Tues April13th with the wonderful SASHA B and Joel performing some songs as well. Sasha has been a good friend of ours for a while now and there will be some collaborations on the night no doubt amongst many a beer.



That's all really, see if you can notice any differences onstage this Friday night, we challenge thee!






Peace&Love
WD

This Old House

We recently released our 6-track EP "This Old House" over 3 intimate evenings at the Step Inn Front Bar in January. We handmade 100 copies which have since sold out. With another run of CD's to be lovingly crafted for the next gig (12th March).

To our suprise the 4zzz ZEDblog reviewed the EP, it wasn't the greatest review but that was their take on the CD. We would love to hear yours...?

here it is...

Wipedoubt have created a background album. An album that you put on when you want music, but don’t really care about what is actually playing. The music is ok, influences like The Doves, Widespread Panic and Something For Kate among others. But I am having to force my ears to listen hard to try and catch the lyrics. I don’t mind working for my musical pleasure, but please don’t force me to try and decipher the lyrics. That just becomes painful.

Maybe they just wanted no-one to be able to understand what they were saying. It is shoe gazer music after all, and that it is supposed to be deep, dark and emotional and contain all sorts of melodic man moaning. But shouldn’t I be able to understand what is being moaned about?

It makes me want to read the lyrics so that I can try to understand the emotional content in the songs. But why should I have to read anything. It is the bands job to make me feel what they are putting forth, and take me to the emotional place their music is coming from.

Maybe the singer needs to enunciate better so that we can understand him. Maybe they need to bring the singer out more in the mix.

To many maybes.

A long absence...

So it's been a long time since anything has been written here. Partly due to lack of reposnibility for all the members of the band (always someone else's job, etc...), partly due to other things needing more attention.

To start things back off we'll get moving by letting you know about our next gig on FRIDAY MARCH 12. It's supporting The Brunswicks at their album launch, and also playing are Jackalpac.

The venue, for those of you who don't know yet, is Club 299. We haven't played here yet, so it's one more to tick off the list.


I believe the last one to tick off in Brisbane would be the trusty Troubadour: the eternal safe-haven for musicians in Bris.


Now, tickets are $10 (I KNOW), but if you shout WIPEDOUBT in an orderly fashion at the door they will let you in for $8! DEAL! Good money's worth I say - I can vouch for Jackalpac being pretty damn fine at least having played with them before so there ya go.






If you ask me it's better value $8 than sitting at home following instructions on how to mod a torch.

In other news, we have a little surprise to premier to everyone at the 299 gig, which we're pretty sure you'll all love. The This Old House EP Launch at Step Inn in Jan was fckin awesome, and we have enough smackers to fund a real CD in a few months as a result! If you want a copy of "This Old House", then you'll have to come to a gig... for the time being. I'm sure some big company will just drift along and pick us up in a few weeks, you know how it goes...

But if you can't wait to hear the stuff, then there's higher quality .mp3's on our Reverbnation page of the whole This Old House EP. The myspace ones are only 128kbit/sec and sound like it's being forced through a cheap plastic pipe. So, from memory I uploaded the Reverbnation ones as 320kbit? Some may not care for such small differences, but it does make a difference in sound quality!



That's all for now, I hope too many didn't suffocate waiting for the next post meanwhile!


Hope all is well in everyone's little fantasy worlds,





JoelWD
