Hello folks.  We are the Snake Temple Kings.  We've been on the go a while now so thought I'd bring your attention our way.  Listen to some of our tracks at www.myspace.com/thesnaketemplekings
 
We have since gotten a new and far superior singer, but if you want to leave feedback to what we've got there, please do.
 
Also, we will have a selection of newer tracks up in the near future, so i'll keep those interested posted.
 
Thank you
 
Rory, STKs

Ok.  This thread is now up to 35 views, so i'd like to persuade these few people why to listen to our music.

We are not a new age prog band.  Our influences largely consist of older bands, and I'd like to think that although we sound retro, we are bringing in more modern elements.

Our drummer has only been playing 3 years.  He is quite the attraction when our band play live.  He is a very talented drummer.  Listen, and you will be in disbelief of his ability for a drummer of such a short life-span.

Nik Turner offered to play saxaphone on our recordings.  (He never did though)

We have been voted best Aberdeen rock band two years running at our local award ceremony.  (Ever since we juts can't seem to shake off the photographers outside our houses)

Emm. . . We sing about space, reincarnation, and astral projection?

So please, feedback is very welcome.  Until we do get some genuine feedback, I will persist.

Thank you

LVX

Hahaha, good boy! Smile It's worth it ...

sounds good, Palmer - but space rock in a strict sense ... hmmmh ... is not that typical for me according to the thread title - more psychedelic ...

Ad Nauseam is eclectic though predominantly, dramatic, with many breaks and turns, a complex structure - great song which differs from the others!
Where did you go and Round and Round - here we have much more Pink Floyd/Hawkwind leanings - a mellow, charming mood

I like this - would be nice to hear more from The Snake Temple Kings Cool

Thanks for the feedback.

I'll have to get round to posting the tunes with our new singer - a huge improvement in our opinion.

Also got some new ones on the way, I'll keep you posted.

Cheers

I agree with the previous poster that this is not strictly space-rock.

You said you have a new singer, so maybe this won't matter, but I thought the vocals were mixed a little low (I know, it's also tempting to do that when you have really cool guitar/synth/drum and bass parts Wink)

Ad Nauseum has very complex structure, I love it. Sounds pretty retro to me.

"Where did you go" reminds me of 70's floyd a lot, and I like it. The sax sounds awesome in this song.

Keep it up and let me know when there is more.
Cheers

Where did you go?

Only you know,

I wish I could come,

Find myself one,

Surface gets me so tired,

I wish I could leave

Earth, Water, Air and Fire,

Help me to breathe

 

The rest of the lyrics vary slightly but are generally very similar, so hope that helps.

 

Thanks everyone for the feedback, will keep you posted on when the new tracks are put up there.

 

LVX

Rory

Ok. I've put a song up with our new singer, Sandy.

Changed the lyrics too and its now called "Where did SHE go?". I heard sex sells Cool

But his voice has certainly made a lot of difference to the song, and I hope you all like it.

Should be more new tunes to follow shortly. Well... shortlyish.

Unfortunately I fear the vocals are too low in this mix, but it's an easy fix.

I have now put up a brand new recording for you all to hear. It's "The Revenge of The Trophy Wives". Also I have put a new version of Ad Nauseam up, with Sandy on vocals.

Enjoy

Here's a new song from the Snake Temple Kings. It's short for us but that is only because part two has not been finished yet Thumb Up It's called "Sunchild".

It's a rough mix, but any feedback is appreciated.

Enjoy,
