LMFAO,
I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE.
SO RHYS IS THE RED SQUIRELL.

There was a quiz I took about them on some website and it asked who the red squirell was,
I didn't know what the fuck it was talking about,
so I asumed it was Faris.
Is that Freddie who posted that?

Red Squirrel Rhysy Kins

That's very interesting, was it one of those "how much do you know about this band' quizzes?

I don't think it is, because it talks about Rhys as a child, and Freddie can't have met Rhys until after Tom had when Rhys was already...22-23ish..if my math is correct, which it often isn't.

No, it was one of those "which member are you" quizzes,
and it had that question and I was like,
"This is weird..."

It has to be, though. Because Harry posts a couple of pages after,
and she calls him Freddie, so it must be him.

Aaaah, ok, so which member where you?

There can be two people with the name Freddie...but he just cant be because the time line is all off...and he uses the term relation, sooo, i dunno, I guess we'll just have to wonder...

"we used to play games in his back garden and he always used to be the 'RED SQUIRELL' who was the most powerful and he would chase us around the garden whilst something like steely dan or james taylor was playing in the background..

if he ever sees this, don't disown me as a relation, it is the gossip section."


Edit: But then you go half way down and that Artysmokes fellow (whom I really dislike) says

"I have some similar [b]second hand[b] gossip"

Also to be taken into consideration is that the original post has been edited at some point by that Artysmokes fellow as well, basically making this whole thing pointless.

Hmm, that is true.

Bahahahahaha!
Rhys is the Red Squirell!! Thats brilliant!
I laughed so hard over that! But I did really want to see some pictures!
I also laughed at the comment, "the boy was born wearing a three button suit."
xD

Does anyone have a link to the US(Washington DC) tour diary?
The one where Joe does strange and bizarre acrobatics? haha
I can't seem to find it anymore /:

I agree, pictures would have been amazing, but of course Rhys is a diva.
I love the remark he made about wanting to keep his testicles. xD

Nope, they never put that one up on youtube for some reason,
it still might be on the upmagazine website if you look for it there.

Oh, I'm also seriously considering doing something for Horrific Slash.
And Lizz, did you see? On the poll for this months slash theme,
the theme that's winning right now is Carnival slash. xD

Pictures would have just made my entire week, maybe month. I'd give my balls (if i had any) to see a little Rhys.

And again the amazing Cas swoops in and saves the day

http://www.upmusicmagazine.com/08-upmag/08/zy21.php

I voted for Carnival theme just so Lizz would post her story for all to read.

Lmao,
I'd give my non-existent balls as well.

I voted Halloween, because Halloween is soon and it just makes sense.
Either way, if carnival wins, I'll submit something, even though I have no idea how Horrific Slash works.
I remember that I started writing a fair/carnival sort of slash one-shot once. I'm even working on it now.
Though, I don't know if it's the same sense of carnival that the theme implies.
Like, circus carnival or like fair rides and such.

I voted for strange pairings, because deep down I want another slash about Kyle Falconer and Faris. (:

Hey Rhys, or any of the guys, if your reading this, its time to give us little Rhys OK?
Never hurts try

I think it can be an open interpretation of the theme.
So go crazy

That picture of Faris you have as your avvie is so cool
He looks almost angelic in it.
And just very pretty.

I'm still submitting something for Halloween.

The angelic Faris photo reminds me of that picture of Joshua where it looks like God's coming out of his crotch. xD
There's this bright light shining from his pants, it's awesome.

That picture was so epic.


"'The world hasn't seen them for a couple of years...' - it's the introduction to the live Suicide B-side rather than The Horrors' offering, but it applies equally to the latest single from everyone's favourite NME cover stars of 2006. After a long wait, and with surprisingly little fanfare, The Horrors have released their latest single. It's the first in a series of EPs by various artists on the Blast First Petite label paying tribute to Suicide, the New York no-wave originators whose Alan Vega apparently turns 70 this year. Future releases are due to feature Suicide contemporary Lydia Lunch, Bruce Springsteen (who'd have thought?), Liars, Effi Briest, and S.C.U.M (with their cover of 'Wild in Blue'), but this, the first, will be the most exciting to those who've been waiting with bated breath to find out what The Horrors sound like after a year spent immersing themselves in experimental electronics.

The clues were all there: the collaborations with S.C.U.M and Ulterior, the Set Up Club, Spider and the Flies... The 'Shadazz' cover sounds a lot more like the esoteric instrumental piece 'Gil Sleeping' than any other track on their Strange House debut. A dub bass groove and solid drumbeat form a spine for some barely-there distorted slide guitar and a shower of flickering synthesizer noises, but overall this is firm Suicide territory: dark and eerily catchy, but above all as minimal as possible. Faris Badwan's screaming days are over: the frontman is cool and snarling, taking an uncanny angle on Alan Vega's restrained ferocity while firmly retaining his own voice. Whether they'll keep that up when we hear their own work is another matter, but for now there are more shrieks from Vega on the B-side (unreleased Suicide track 'Radiation') than on Badwan's 'Shadazz' vocal line.

A special mention is due for Nik Void's 'Rocket U.S.A.' cover, the second B-side track, which combines laconic Flying Lizards vocals with a great pulsing synth line and provides a good reminder of Suicide's influence on every single dance act since the late seventies, but all in all that and 'Radiation' are just further incentives to find out for yourself what The Horrors are up to, and to get a taster of their new sound (due in album form in the new year). They're in the process of casting off their immature garage rock sound and looking forward to new territory: 'Count In Fives' this isn't, but that can only be a good thing at this stage."

Can I see the Josh groin picture?

Ooooouuurgghh, it sound so epic and I want to hear it, do you know if its available yet?

I read somewhere that the cover isn't an indication of what they are doing in the future, or you know, that second CD we all really want,
didn't I?
I think I did,
one of the boys posted that somewhere...
So yeah...

Oh wow, I don't think I've seen that photo of Faris before.
It's like his crotch is the devilish crotch, while Joshua's is all angelic.
They could have a battle between good and evil.
