Hey all. Just happened to have a nosy on our dear old forum and noticed an actual discussion!!! It's been a while so I thought I'd throw in my own 2 cents worth! It's just a pity it's on the subject of us splitting up eh!
Had an awesome time playing in this band and over the 5 years of being together we definitely progressed and explored different areas of the rock/metal spectrum. For us it was a big melting pot of influences and styles that created each individual way that we play and write music. With this approach there was always going be people who liked some songs and not others because we didn’t always stick to a certain style, but it was never our intention to please any specific target audience in terms of style and genre, but to only please ourselves! We accepted that different members of the band liked different types of music and we would of rather combined our efforts to produce music that we were all happy with. We did, however, always put 100% in playing our songs live so that people could appreciate what we did!
I am always happy to receive constructed criticism… but where was it? Who are you to speak about the public in such a general way; surely you can only give your personal view on this subject. Doh!
hey, well said ! I don't care what anybody says DumpValve were an amazing band made up of 4 excellent musicians who I hope will go on to do other things and I think they will leave a massive hole in the Hull music scene which no one will fill for a long time.
