I expect everyone has heard of the Accrington based band Maupa.

If not I highly recommend you to purchase their recent single (Helpless) or their forthcoming debut album Minor Highs & Major Lows released at the end of this month.

You will not be disappointed. Please let me know what you think

I've never heard of 'em......mind you, I've never heard of most bands these days; I occaisionally hear some monstrous drivel being played in the background in the pub and that's more than enough for me. Why the kids cannot write and play proper music I do not know. I certainly won't be spending my hard earned beer money on any of this nonsense.
 
should i say, mmmm tea i think your showing your age. ha ha ha ha
 
true , but the older generation in my time complained bout my music, thats the way the world goes //eh
 
Yes, but at least they did recognize our stuff as music.....all this today is just an irritating noise. Rap = Acoustic Diaorrea.
 
mmm i like a bit of regga its the rhythm makes you wanna sway yea //
 
If I wanted to sway, I'd would rather look up in the sky and sway to the passing clouds....Regga is torture on the ears & should be banned under Health & Safety.
 
oooo you old romantic, theres nowt like a bit of rock & roll to get the adrenalin going , im all for that //
 
o tea come on now, wots wrong with a bit of chopin or bach which i like to but one must have a wide varation of music to understand it & appreciate it wouldnt you say //
 
The thread is about a band called maupa, yet I don't actually see any discussion of maupa.... be good.
 
You may know them - Accy isn't that big...

The band consists of:-
Anthony Gibbons
Adam Bishop
David Boon
Lorcan Moriarty
Patrick McKeown
Matthew Smithson

I think they generally hang out at the Albion in Clayton and they are a very promising young talent.. (and now I am not on commission). Just a big fan!!

They should be practising their "music", instead of hanging about in pubs all the time. They'll never get to be rich & famous if they do that.....especially if it's the Albion they hang out in.

How does this negative, narrow minded nonsense benefit anyone ?
Firstly, I would like to point out that i am not a massive fan of Maupa's music, but how can anyone be so harsh on an up and coming band that are representing both the Accrington music scene and Accrington and the surrounding area not only in the U.K. but in europe as well and possibly around the world in years to come. The fact you start your slur by saying that you have never heard of them, and end it by saying you will never buy their music shows you are not even willing to give modern/new music a chance, and in my opinion you are not competant to comment on the quality of it. Maybe if you were to give new bands, artists and producers a few minutes of your time you may be supprised.

I love music and think everyone should be given a chance, but thats only my opinion.

Whats your second point B? Do you have a third point, possibly ? Please take your time & consult with friends if you need to......get yourself a good argument, because I certainly can't be bothered answering this cartoon of a case (above).

Tealeaf, why dont you just respect other peoples opinions instead of trying to offend them when they dont feel the same way about a certain subject as you do. It's childish if you ask me.
 
I'm not asking you, but just for the sake of it, I did'nt start this thread. Someone else did. I have simply responded to it. That is what this is for; it's a forum. It may well be that you - along with many others - may wish to listen to this garbage. Fine. But please don't expect the rest of us to go along with it. We're not all brain dead.
