the past few days have been nothing short of surreal really. i don't really think anyone has really come to terms with saturday night yet. about a little over a year ago we were just a bunch of friends in the same class messing around with the idea of forming what we affectionately labelled 'the class band', we weren't serious at all! so yeah, we sort of flunked out of our Battle of the Bands auditions and our first gig was to play as a guest band at BOB2. it was quite a letdown to be honest, while we were performing, people were still strolling in, finding their seats. not to mention the fact that we were stoned as hell on stage. no jump, no fancy headbanging, no nothing!

i suppose i'm still very much in shock about all of this; the sudden deluge of attention that our once virtually unknown and unappreciated band have received. i think we've proven in our own little way that we can make music that people like. i think i speak for the entire band when i say that redeeming the riot is extremely grateful to everyone who's shown us their support. all the awesome blog posts about us are just well, awesome.

most of all, i think redeeming the riot has proven itself to be an entity that encompasses and celebrates the friendship and class spirit of 4.4 Ezra 2007. i'm extremely grateful for all the good times and laughs we've had over the years and look forward to many more. sure we've all had rough times with each other, and we're probably going to have problems with each other in the future, but i take comfort in the fact that we've never let small problems really get to us. so for those who don't already know, our class blog is at www.pointfour.blogspot.com !

p.s. band(age) pictures are really unglam. blarrh.


EJIN.


VIDEOS IN HIGH-DEF ARE UP.GET YOUR HDTV READY.


SIX FEET UNDER THE STARS!

"But Redeeming The Riot stood out cause of their showmanship……Oh andandand, during Redeeming The Riot's song, `Six Feet Under The Stars', I could not help to notice that there were fake stars hanging just EXACTLY about 6 feet above them! Hahaha".

"Saving the best for last,

And they did this really cool jump in the middle of the song,
like at one of the breaks in music.
Damn cool, ahhhhhhhh,

The judge's comments for them were really good though.
Nick was like "We chose the songs cos I liked the titles".

- irrisss.blogspot.com



"Redeeming the Riot won by playing noob songs that don't show any form of intricate musicianship and/or technicality. But they won anyway, which goes to show that they picked the right songs for the right time"


- Some imperfectgrandeur.blogspot.com clown



"Redeeming The Riot was the winner. i guess coz the singer had a really good voice like the main singer of boys like girls:P"


- catchthatshootingstar.blogspot.com



"firstly, Redeeming the Riot totally deserve to win :)))) ...plus the lead singer's (of another band) voice wasn't as strong as redeeming the riot one.."

Open up, shuffle, shuffle. Our lives, packed to the brim with many things including school and other lame school related whatnot, required our schedules to be opened up, and our arrangements shuffled. It’s all worth it, really. We’re here right now, ready to rumble. Like a cookie left out in the open, we slowly wear off, crumb by crumb, but still, we remain sweet and succulent and ever so tasty.In the end, when we are digested, the mixture of chips and nuts and other cookie-ingredients just melts in your mouth and travels down your oesophagus. That’s how easily accepted we are. We’re everybody’s cup of tea, which refills itself over and over again. It’s hard to define, in the space of three words the definition of a group of people who come together to rock each other’s world, and to rock your stage. If you’re looking for a group of people who unite to disperse a whole new sound and edge to our music, we’re it. And we like to be loud and in-your-face. We do have our ups and downs as a band, but everything contributes to the making of our sound, and to what defines us from the others. In a world which zooms from frame to frame, our thoughts are frozen and encapsulated through our unique brand of music. On top of that, we are also many other things. Like what, you may ask. Well, we’re dynamic, we’re loud, we’re young, we’re good-looking, we’re good, period. We’re cool, we’re rocking, we’re awesome, we’re flexible, we’re thought-provocative, we’re rebellious. We’re Redeeming the Riot.
