What happen to the Winners of School of Rock?

At the end of the day it all boils down to support. Alot of peole always say local music cannot flourish but do they/we realise that it will always begin with us???

+1....yep i agree we really are the ones that can make things happen...
 
my point of view, singaporeans are too filled with chinese pop music like energy and f4, by the television and competitions. everyone thinks rock is just nothing but noise. even if they listen to rock, they're just referring to punkrock. if we introduce them any metal or hardrock songs, their reply is 'wtf is the vocals trying to mean or sing?' or 'too noisy man i don catch it !' and to fill the request of singaporeans or maybe the judges themselves, competitions are choosing more pop-based bands.

and my nick has nothing to do with punkrock haha :D

just my point of view don scold me.
 
Haha

Check out Dark Saviour from Singapore Battle of the Bands 2005.

They are nice people off stage, but EVIL DEATH METALISTS on the rampage when they go on stage.

I always believe that on stage, u can be crazy as hell coz tts for entertainment value...but offstage, the attitude and rampaging should never be carried on...
 
Hmm

The lead singer is a very nice guy. In fact, before the semis begin, they approached us outside the club to chat abit. I'm kinda shocked at their performance cuz its a major contrast, nonetheless, they are good.
 
for your info, who says DEATH METAL gets rejected in band competitions.

No Divider is a death metal growling band that WON the Battle of the Bands this year.


This is a simple conclusion to those metal bands who got "rejected" in other band competitions, maybe the playing and the music just wasn't good enough. :roll:


----------------------------


And why would Power98 or Perfect10 98.7 play Slayer and risk losing 90% of its listening audience??
 
Ahh a gd point there by Vio. If the band is really good, no doubt they will show it and the judges cant ignore. I know of one death metal band tht got into the finals of Yamaha Asian Beats a few yrs ago hahah thtz long.

forgive the ignorance, but whats wrong with the "metal scene" ?

Nothing wrong with metal scene because it is for metal heads. But it is metal music that you want ppl to appreciate, then promote metal music. The scene and the music are two very different thing.

Singapore. Is all abt money. Dominated by the chinese (mostly), nothing racial here, bt statistics (genuine newspaper reports) show tht chinese ppl r more inclined n interested in aquiring a life full of money, savings, investments, education etc. Ofcourse thtz a gd thing. Bt when all u think is abt money, this is what happens.

No money how to organize igs and pay bands?
 
Hee

you know its "Sad but true!!"

"Hey, hey I am your life, I am the one who take you there, hey!!"

Oopsie I dwelt too much on Metallica le :oops:
 
Metal music is testosterone filled music, therfore u usually isolate out most of the female audience, secondly due to its technicallity and complex song structures, usually only musicians can appreciate them, so taking into account the above 2 factors, u already removed most of the general public out of the picture. And that is why it is difficult for metal music to be mainstream.

Metal has always been about rebellion, being different and wearing that difference with pride. And if metal music does become mainstream, I am sure people will complain that metal sold out and is not cool anymore.
