Rhombus Dates and an MP3

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Hello

Shameless tart time again, firstly the amazing flashy gig list thing

Image

Secondly an MP3 of the mighty Rat City

http://www.rhombus.music.btinternet.co.uk/RatCity.mp3

Currently to be found on the play lists of Slimelight in London, Carpe Noctum in Bradford and some radio station who's name escapes me.

Slightly different mix from the one that appears on the album

I just listened to that mp3; my first taste of Rhombus.

Not bad, not bad at all. Image

Something strange going on.....my first download was a 21 sec track, my second was 5 seconds in length, and then I got the full 3:38.

Like it! My first Rhombus experience- will try to get to one of the gigs on the strength of it.

Cheers for the MP3.

SG... i haven't had the time to dream up an 'appropriate' response to your disgraceful attack on 'the shades'. Some of us actually cover bits of our body up!! (s'pose that'll do for starters!).

Besides i stood on the ones in my avatar at rehearsal - all Ed's fault for turning the rehearsal studio into a zero visibility smoke fest - a kinda thick fog on the pennines comparison.

However, i'll weather the 'looking like a right knob' storm and continue to sport 'the blue shades' for the immediate future in the happy knowledge that it annoys you... dearest!

Moving on...

I don't know what's been happening with the MP3 downloads. I know that we've used quite a bit of bandwidth recently, but not so much as to cause server problems. If it persists i'll look at putting them on a mirror site as backup. Let us know of any problems.

Our merchandise (The Soul The Spirit & The Wish 4 track CD EP; Rat City 11 track CD LP; Rhombus logo t-shirts) are now available postage-free from our website - follow the links to the 'shop' from our main page.

Next live stop for us is at The Zoo Bar, Halifax on Saturday 7 February, with us back in Leeds for a couple of dates later in the month.

Right... that's sufficient shameless plugging for now... back to the Sisters...

Some of the song downloads are now available on an alternative page as a back-up to the main site. Try here to access.[/url]
