View Melody Marshals's EPK MyGen Profile GeneratorGENESIS 1. 1-28 The Biography of Melody Marshals. 1 In the beginning there was nothing, there was silence. 2 A group of young males sat down and decided to create a rock n roll band, and so the spirit of Melody Marshals was hovering over the waters. 3 One of them said: Let there be sound, and there was sound. 4 They heard the sound, separated it from the silence and called it music. Melody Marshals saw that it was good. 5 There was a lot of jamming - in the beginning. 6 In the first period there was a lot of noise, banging, shouting and swearing . 7 One of them said: Let us all play the same song and make new songs together. And it was so. 8 There was writing, testing, rewriting and harmonizing- the first period. 9 In the second period, the band began to tire. 10 Some made excuses like I can..t make it to rehearsal today, I have to be with my girlfriend today and I..m moving to another city. 11 One of them said: Let..s fire some of the bandmembers, and get some better ones. 12 And so it was done, and Melody Marshals saw that it was good the second period. 13 In the third period they had written a lot of songs and was wondering what to do with them. 14 One of them said: Let..s play in public. 15 They phoned, wrote and talked to a bunch of people, and played at some local venues in their home town, Stavanger. They called it concerts. 16 They played, people came and newspapers wrote. People saw that they were good. 17 There was a lot of playing, coming and writing- the third period. 18 In the fourth period they were playing, writing and traveling. But there was no compact discs to spread around the world. 19 One of them said: Let..s go in the studio and record something. And so they did. 20 They called it demos and they saw that some of it was good and some of it not so good (lets just say that takes a while to be great in the studio). 21 But the songs were good and the live shows were superb. Melody Marshals became a hell of a good band. They sent the demos to important people. 22 And so there was more gigs, plays on the radio and public attention. Melody Marshals (were damn proud of themselves and) saw that is was good- the fourth period. 23 In the fifth period the band had gotten more experienced and thought their songs was better than ever. 24 One of them said: Lets record our first album. So they searched for a producer to join them. 25 The band met with a man named Inge Riska, and Melody Marshals saw that he was good- the fifth period. 26 Now, in the sixth period the band is working, writing, playing, noising, banging, promoting, booking, drinking, shouting, arguing and rehearsing, for the upcoming recording sessions in September 2006. 27 It will be created by Melody Marshals, in the image of Melody Marshals. 28 And you know it will be good- the sixth period.

BANDINFO FOR VENUES, AGENCIES, PRESS & OTHERS: Norwegian: Melody Marshals er et moderne rockeband fra Stavanger, Norge. Bandet har siden starten i 2002 vært på jakt etter et eget, ekte og personlig uttrykk, og kommer stadig nærmere målet. Melody Marshals er inspirert av flere ulike stilarter, men setter alltid den gode melodien høyest, gjerne med en bittersøt undertone. Mange vil kanskje si at Melody Marshals er mollstemt, atmosfærisk og alternativ (indie)rock. Kontakt: melodymarshals(at)gmail.com, tlf.: 99 26 12 98 English: Melody Marshals is a modern rockband from Stavanger, Norway. Since the start in 2002, the band has found themselves on a journey in search for their own sound and expression. Melody Marshals is inspired by several different genres, but they always appreciate a good melody, often with a bittersweet touch. Some might characterize Melody Marshals' music as melancholic, atmospheric and alternative (indie)rock.

Quotes: The 5-piece rock band Melody Marshals from Stavanger, Norway, has been around in the local music scene for several years, but 2007 will be the year when they finally release their debut album. "Songs From A Tin Laboratory" will be in the shops from October 15, and I guess the album will get the band's name out to more than a limited Stavanger-audience. Their sound is dark and melancholic, but at the same time highly melodic. When I listen to their songs, I'm reminded of bands like Muse, Mew and Placebo or more well known Norwegian bands like the Seigmen or Delaware. The first single from the album is called "Space Cobain", a song I bet will be a live favorite on future concerts. ---------------------------http://eardrumsmusic.com/tag/seig men/ ___________________________________________Post aus Norwegen! gerade haben mir die Melody Marshals ihre Debüt CD als Promo geschickt. Nicht schlecht, Herr Specht! Der melancholische, Wave-orientierter Rock erinnert entfernt an HIM, Muse und Placebo. Technisch sauberer Rock, schöne Stimme und tolle Melodien sollten einen Erfolg der Debüt CD garantieren. Nach meinem unmassgeblichen Geschmack könnte die Musik ein klein bißchen rauher und überraschender ausfallen, aber das ist, wie gesagt, Geschmackssache und darüber zu streiten ist müßig. Freundlicherweise dürfen wir Zwei Tracks unserer geneigten Leserschaft zum freien Download anbieten. Hier der zu prognostizierende Hit der Platte "Space Cobain" und "Jack Lite". Viel Spaß und Platte kaufen!--------------------http://thelastpopsong.blogspot.co m/2007/10/rockige-gre-aus-norwegen-melody.html Record Label: Melody Marshals Recordings / ArtBeat Records Type of Label: Indie |
