Displacements is the name of our lovely band. We chose this name as we wanted something a bit different I suppose. We got it from a chapter in a book I was reading and we all agreed it was cool! (first and last book) I think it means out of place, not meant to be there sort of thing!
We are a band from Hull or Ull as the locals call it (its in england by the way). There are 3 memebers of my crazy band:
- Kris Gowland the drummer,
- Simon Herring the bassist/vocals,
- Nick Cobley lead guitar/vocals.
we are all 17.
We all really like the same type of music, this is mainly pop unk/punk/rock apart from Kris who also enjoys rap! Our main influence is Blink 182, but Nirvana, Finch, New Found Glory etc influence our music!
Our first gigg was over a year ago. There were alot of kids our age their. They liked our music (back then we did covers as well as our own). We played a 1 hour set which was great as the kids were still dancing and stuff all the way through! We have improved so much since then. We decided to start up as a band because we were all sick of just playing for our own benefit, we wanted to entertain people and stay out of trouble haha!
I would just like to say I think our band is great, we really appeal to all genres of music, we write so well together and get on great (which I think is very rare these days!) We love people listening to us and giving us feedback on our songs even if it isn't realy great feedback for us. We are entertainers and are very serious about our music, but love to have fun! If you like catchy rocky punk songs give us a listen!
Songs:
- Locker Room,
- Better Off Before,
- Keep This To Myself,
- Voiceless.
The rest of the songs located on their official website. All songs are made smaller and are not great quality (want the real ones? contact one of us!)

: Yeah...you guys suck something fiercesome. Your guitar player needs to learn to sing and play better. The songs have potential but they need a LOT of work. Also, you are from England and thats two strikes against you. Everybody knows the British are douchebags.POSTED: 12/24/2003 - 02:40 am / quote |

: Healthy criticism: You guys need to practice more. Thats what I was saying. Thats healthy criticism. Also, be less English that is healthy criticism. Also, it doesn't really matter who was singing. On the song better off before, whoever is singing needs to learn to sing and play better. Don't waste your time trying to defend your band, instead spend your time trying to make yourselves better.POSTED: 12/24/2003 - 05:49 pm / quote |

jinhn02
: alright here i go with some advices.
your singer need to take some vocal lessons. he sounds out of tune in many parts of the song. guitar level is decent although lil more practice cant hurt. the drummer need to practice more and learn more skills and techniques. same with bass player. but most importantly, the singer need to learn how to sing properly.POSTED: 12/25/2003 - 04:55 am / quote |

: Be what you are and make music you like. About the vocals, sing louder, and it you wont sound so much like a high school band. Dont worry about being in key, nobody cares. And if they do, the music you make wont ever be exactly what they are looking for anyways.POSTED: 12/25/2003 - 05:03 pm / quote |
si_wilburn
: Hey
This is nick from the above band.
Just like to say thanks to all who have bothered to check our band out.....Even if you were just havin a go at us.
Thanks alot to Pinkerton cos that sorter comment is the thing we were hoping for cos he aint havin a go he is trying to help us out and its well appreciated.
We are just trying to make a start, i think you can all understand this, so thanks for the comments and what the hell has the war between usa and iraq got to do with a small band from hull?? eh?? Just because we are english does not mean we suck thats just stupid.
Thanks to those who have taken us seriously.
Cheers

: I didn't mind it actuly. Definatly has potential (I listened to 'Better off Before') The drum beat needs to be more consistant. Just keep playing away and it'll come together POSTED: 12/26/2003 - 04:18 am / quote |

: Right am only just listening to Better Off Before - I'll get the others later.
Firstly, the guitar could have been given a cuplemore goes - it's a recordin ya don't have to do it in one take - take timend get rid of those duff notes.
Not bad apart from that and that fact that the singer is puttin on an american accent - yeah it's hard not too when covering american sogns but dude if it's your own, find your real singing voice we're British man!
Keep it up boys its coming along fine!POSTED: 12/26/2003 - 02:15 pm / quote |
si_wilburn
: Hey man
Yer cheers for the comment, I know what u mean, the guitar needs to be done again, but its a home recording not in a studio, we just wanted something down so we cud get ideas of how to improve the songs, aint like we are trying to sell it, in due time we will do it again!
Cheers for the message anyway, yer odd words do sound american appreciated, as i say its something to improve we know now and its gonna be better for us in the long run!

: I listened to 'Better Off Before', it starts off pretty good but the verses sound boring. I like the sound of the guitar at the verses, but I was imagining being someone in the crowd at a show and hearing it. The start would be cool if it was played with more energy but the verses are too boring and there are too many off them. If you work on that song I think you have something. That's what I think anyways.POSTED: 12/28/2003 - 07:27 am / quote |

: Dude...i realize its easier to be a poppy/punk band...but i couldnt do it! wheres the soloes and the intelect, the depth? i suppose its about having fun...but thats cheap fun at its worst...im gonna stop griping about pop/punk and comment on the band: you guys arent bad...the vocals definately need work...better off before bored me ass off..BUT i listened to the whole song, which is better than i can do for some bands on atticus, which i can totally picture u guys, with A LOT of practice and a new outlook on your vocals and lyrix, can end up like them...if you really want to that is *ugh* (i didnt mind the guitar too much either, you could move on a lil past power chords and simple riffs..)but it was good enough,also recognizing that you are a teenage band..probably in the whole music thing for the chix
where did good metal go? i need some bands like motorhead to come back outPOSTED: 12/28/2003 - 05:02 pm / quote |

: I said you guys shouldn't spend time defending yourselves because then it looks like you NEED defending. Trying to defend yourselves just makes people want to make fun of you more. Also, I have only practiced with my band two times, and I'm sorry to say we're already better then you. That's not even me being cocky, its completely objective. Also, not having guitar or voice lessons is not something to be proud of. Without guitar lessons, your ability to play the guitar will plateau, meaning you will come to a point where you can't get any better. Also, teaching yourselves you learn bad habits. If your going to be a pop punk band, at least be cool like Sum 41 and have cool guitar. You'll need lessons to play like them however.POSTED: 01/02/2004 - 01:29 pm / quote |

: Hey man, here's all i can offer to you. Your music seems to be very ..hmm. Puls-ish? like it isnt ambient at all, it has no flow to it, it just pulses. I'd also maybe work on a few songs where your verse and chrous arent power chords, a small lead. Its not hard to memorize a scale and create a lead riff out of it. All i can help ya with, the potential is there.POSTED: 01/24/2004 - 05:25 pm / quote |

RiffHero
: Here's my suggestions. ANYONE will sound bad vocally without any reverb added. Its analagous to singing into a steel wall. Do you have the equipment to add the reverb? I agree with the pulse-y nature. The drums seem to be playing the guitar part exactly, note for hit. Try varying their rythyms. Also, the bass guitar mirrors the guitar note for note. An example: Better off before. Get a little variation with the bass lines, and the sound will be less mass produced and more full. In BOB, I suggest adding a riff over the intro power chords. Again, less mass produced, more unique (anyone can play powerchords.) Well, anyway, good luck guys, and email me (geon5600@yahoo.com) if I can help any more. -RiffHeroPOSTED: 01/29/2004 - 05:10 am / quote |

: No problem man. Anyway, I listened to "Lockeroom" or whichever one that was. The guitar and such are better, but my problem here is the vocals. On notes where you hold for more than a second or so, you seem to die out. Make sure you keep the quality of the note for the duration. Also, pronounce your words more forcefully. Make sure to pronounce the first letter of each word (i.e the C in Catch). Also, make sure T's and S's dont get lost, pronounce them. If the song is emotional, sing it as such. You cant be passive in vocals unless the song is meant to be passive. Well, thats it (I can only get BOB and this song.) Good luck, later -RiffHeroPOSTED: 02/03/2004 - 03:09 am / quote |

: Well, I was all set to defend your band. Then I got the "Emo sux" thing. Perhaps you should try and develop some style of your own instead of ripping on / ripping off other bands?POSTED: 02/27/2004 - 02:48 pm / quote |

: AHHHHHHHHHHHH JESUS CHRIST!!!!!! WHO R WE RIPPING OFF ?
WHO R WE RIPPING ON?
We dont need sympathy so why say u were gona defend us till u saw 'emo suks'? that makes u false.
OUR SONGS ARE OUR OWN - NO1 ELSE'S - OUR LYRICS - OUR MUSIC - If we sound like other band it DOES NOT MEAN WE RIP THEM OFF! Theres a thing called respect and weve been ripped off before so we would NEVER rip another band off!
Thanks anyway.
u sound like a really nice guy

: Hi guys. Jade H here. Like everyone else have said, vocals need a bit of work...maybe stretch out the notes you're singing. And turn up the bass. Might come and check you guys out Tues 9thPOSTED: 03/05/2004 - 06:33 pm / quote |

: okay..I only listened to one song...better off before. Instrumentally it started off decent. Had sort of a garage retro sound, but then the vocals came in... and sorry to be harsh, but they were really bad. Okay turn the mic down on the vocals because your voice is way over the instruments, and it sounds like you are reading from a script. If you get your voice a little lower than the instruments, then you'll have to put some energy in to make yourself louder. I think it will give you some slight distortion to your voice which could probably be a good thing. I think you guys should drop the whole idea of sounding like pop punk. Instrumentally keep doing what your doing, but try some different things with your voice.POSTED: 03/06/2004 - 07:05 am / quote |

: your intro for better of before was in the minor key. the song without that is in a MAJOR key, pathetic attempt at combining a crappily executed riff with a crappily written songPOSTED: 03/16/2004 - 02:08 pm / quote |

: well, after all this time I can't say I like most of your music, (mainly cause I am not much of a punk fan) but good luck with the whole band thing. At least you have a band, unlike me who is stuck in the middle of nowhere, without any drummers.POSTED: 04/12/2004 - 06:04 pm / quote |

: well thanks for that comment after all the slagging off you've done on us on this forum - fair play on the taste thing if you dont like punk - u dont like it simple as- weve got new material and all the motherfukers who have dissed us on here have helped us write better songs and now we are playing with touring bands regularly so thats aceeeeeeee!!!!
