Well it has been a little while since I have posted, but I have some news about the Monster...we are nearing completion of our debut disc entitled VIEW. We have also just launched a basic website ( www.bighairymonster.com ) and we have a whole bunch of music for you! Feel free to visit. Please note that all of the tracks included on our site are early DEMO (basically, low-fi, rough-mixed and unmastered ) versions of songs that will be on our CD. We don't want to put up any of our epic masterpieces quite yet!  Also, the Monster has decided to throw up (er, post) a few jams...known affectionately by us as "Monstrosities". There is no running order to our media player, but let me suggest that you skip to "Figure Eight" and explore from there. If you find that some songs sound incomplete, you are right! The album works (almost) as a complete piece of music for the duration of the CD, so songs like "Grins" and "Crosses" are actually edits of a larger piece of music.If you want to cut to the chase and hear just one song, I recommend "Waiting"...just keep telling yourself, "It's only a demo...it's only a demo!" More to follow... ------------- Big Hairy Monster's debut CD "View" coming soon! www.bighairymonster.com |

Nice one! Once you have a release date for the CD, and few decent quality samples for evaluation, we can recommend you to our genre teams, for inclusion in the site - provided you're prog enough of course  ------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.

I am pleased to announce that the Big Hairy Monster CD (VIEW) finally nears completion! Yep! The obnoxious middle-Georgia boys are starting to celebrate and the beer is beginning to flow! As part of a little "pre-VIEW"  we have put up the first four songs on our MySpace site at http://www.myspace.com/bhmrocks - www.myspace.com/bhmrocks Using all of the best of our do-it-yourself technology, we have created our first two bits of video cheese to compliment the music. To best get a feel for how the album starts, pause the music player, then play the video/music tracks in this order: 1. The... (scroll down to video, titled Monstrosity #1) 2. ...Black Summer (scroll to video, titled Monstrosity #2) 3. Figure Eight // View (music player) 4. Monkeyshines (music player) A video for Figure Eight is being edited, and View is being filmed. Monkey's viddy is being written. Also, if you are interested in hearing the original crappy demo versions of all of the songs from VIEW, go to http://www.bighairymonster.com/ - www.bighairymonster.com where you will also find a few drunken improv jams...it's all in good fun! Cheers! ------------- Big Hairy Monster's debut CD "View" coming soon! www.bighairymonster.com |
