The Monikers - Tikitac - 08-11-2006
Hey everyone!
I doubt anyone remembers, but I used to be quite active in the QB world, with my website TIKITAC games...
I haven't updated for a year or so, because I hav ebeen busy with school and my band, The Monikers.
I thought maybe some of you would like to check out our stuff:

You got a very indie sound.
Unfortunately, I completely dislike the sound, though your music isn't terrible.
Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please make the site look better than that. I wouldn't pay money to anybody who runs a website like that. That's completely honest truth.
The font, the frames, the auto-loading music playing that I didn't want to hear, the terrible links hidden everywhere, the dodgy menu, everything.
Go to Pearl Jam's website to see what a band's website should look like.
And by the by, I'm being a wanker for nothing, I am just being honest.

Thanks.
Luckily we aren't paying anyone for the site... It's supposed to look DIY indie, just like our music.
Sorry you don't like the tunes... but then again, you're a pearl jam fan, so no surprise there.

Holy shit, that was supposed to say: "I'm NOT being a wanker for nothing."
My bad.
It isn't all that difficult to get a half-decent website nowadays. A weekend of work and you'll have something worth showing.
Like I said, it's an indie sound, and nowadays it sells good. People like this kind of music. I made a friend listen to it and he digs it.
On my first listen, I noticed some of your songs have EQ issues; you should double check that. Could just be the laptop speakers, but I'm not sure.

yeah definitely.... the stuff on the site is old. we recorded it with apple garageband :lol:
thanks for the advice on the site though, i'll look into "smoothing" it out, if you know what i mean.
