Greetings Mudcatters

Run for the hills, Mudcatters, Box of Goats are here!

Yes, Box of Goats is a combo whose members include Mudcatters Nick and The Beast of Farlington and we have just recorded our first number for your aural amusement. You can have a listen to 'Struck Twice By Lighting' at the link here (hope it works)

Struck Twice By Lightning

We'd love to know what you think of it. Yes, really. It's a kind of laid back, acoustic, backporch kind of thing and features Lynne, Nick's wife, on backing vocals.

Shameless self-promotion ends here.

Oh, the link will take you to a page that says it's invalid but just wait a second and it will open the front page of the site. Scroll down to the first song and there it is....

I keep trying to listen but obviously I've got something wrong, it keeps coming up with a download page and then asks for username and password. What am I doing wrong?

whb

Thanks to those of you who have had a listen so far. The tune is rocketing up the ic-musicmedia pop download charts (it's not really pop - it's about as pop as Norah Jones) for what that's worth.

Oh, I should have mentioned that Nick plays all the instruments and I do the caterwauling. Lynne, Nick's wife, does the backing singing.

Thanks to those of you who had a listen and helped this hit no 1 in thw ic-muscimedia pop download charts. The charts are updated daily and so we are at no 2 today. But a few more plays would put us back on top!

Thanks if it was any of you. It's been number one for 4 days in a row now.

We also have another new tune on the site called 'The Bubble Has Burst' for you to listen to.

Hello. Glad to see there is another animal related bend out there. Couldn't see where to click to listen, but am sure it's good. My band is called Tone Deaf Leopard and we are based in Orpington, Kent. Where are you ?

Try this

Box of Goats

Tone Deaf Leopard is a good name - are you a tribute band or is your name just an opinion of Def Leppard's music?

We got our name from a band name generator on the internet. We're not goats at all really, just two podgy middle-aged blokes trying to do what we should have done years ago.

Anyway do have a listen and leave some feedback on the site if you can. If the link doesn't work, go to Nick's first post earlier in the thread and click the link there.

Box of Goats went into the studio last weekend (don't worry, we're house-trained) to record studio versions of the two songs we posted a few weeks ago. We like to think they are a considerable improvement.
Box of Goats

The link will take you to a page which suggests it is a dud link but just give it a few seconds to load and it will take you to my homepage. The Bubble Has Burst and Struck Twice By Lightning, studio versions are the two songs in question.

Please have a listen and give us some feedback.

Thanks

Beast
