We have recently purchased www.nostandards.net. Go ahead, click the link if you dont believe us! However, because, as you know, we are a cheap arse band we couldn't afford any web space so the site is exactly the same. But with a better name. So feel free to use this address from now on. Oh and the e-mail address is no longer nostandards@hotmail.com it is band@nostandards.net. E-mails to both addresses, however, go to exactly the same place, nostandards@hotmail.com. Its just band@nostandards.net sounds better. See, we do try and be a proffesional band.

First Day of Recording...

We went into the studio today and recorded the drum tracks to 'My Second Language', 'All Aside', 'Dr Sloan' and 'Something Used'. We weren't happy with the way the drums sounded on the first ep, all symbols an no balls, so we're makin sure we get it right this time. Tommorrow we'll be recording the bass and hopefully some guitar but so far we think its gonna be a vast improvement on the first ep. Check here tommorow to see how the tracks are takin shape.

NEW EP UPDATE

Our new and improved ep will be recorded and ready to sell to the masses by the end of JULY 03. Were still not sure which tracks will be included but we guarantee it will be a big step up for us as we go into our second year. If you liked our first one 'Thank God For Possibilities', you'll still appreciate the punk sensibilities of the new one but with a rawer and more interesting sound. It will be available online, at shows, or from members or fans of the bands who have nothing better to do than walk the streets aimlessly harasing people to buy one

HELL YEAH!

Because of all the wonderful people who made the effort to come down and see our show at the Witchwood in Ashton over easter, we were one of the bands who won a two day recording session courtesy of ARC Sounds. Therefore saving us hundreds of pounds we will use to buy you all presents! In addition to this, we have also been booked to play FRIDAY ROCK NIGHT at the Witchwood on July 18th along with fellow winners Fast Net Force Ten (good band). Keep visiting the site for further updates on when everythings happenening.

WITCHWOOD GIG, APRIL 22ND.

It was a great day with some really cool bands on. We especially liked 10 Days, Kid Conspiracy and a special thankyou to I Win I Drive for not turning up coz we got ages to set up but still managed to miss our stage time.

Hope everyone who got a CD enjoyed it and if you've got any comments sign the guestbook with what you think. If you were hoping to hear 'Dr Sloan Is My Hero', 'Last Call', 'Something Used' or 'My Second Language' they'll be on the upcoming 2nd EP yet to be titled.
Check the gigs page to see when we'll be playing next.

NOTICE...

Is our name really really shite???

If, like us, you think NoStandards is a shit name for a band, we are open to suggestions and you should put them up on the guestbook. If you like the name, tell us why cos we forgot ages ago. CHEERS!
