| Where
did you get your name from? |
-
We got it from the word and the skateboard
trick "Melancholy", but we
changed it to Millencolin. Now it's just our name, which really
just mean the four of us.
(Millencolin is not a Swedish word) |
| When
will you come to my town to play? |
| -
Look at the tourdates
section. As soon as we get dates confirmed
we'll put them up there. |
| What
equipment (guitars, bass, drums, amps
etc.) do you use? How do you get your
sound? |
-
Check out the membersections
where you can read what sort of equipment
every member of the band uses!
In general, no one of us use any effects really. Nikola sometimes use a Sans Amp to add some distortion to the bass sound. Mathias and Erik use the tube distortion in their Mesa Boogie heads. Erik sometimes use a wahwah pedal for some solos and Mathias use a flangerpedal for the beginning of some songs like No Cigar. |
| Where
can I buy Millencolin clothes and other
stuff? |
-
You can order the official Millencolin
merchandise from the Burning
Heart Online Mailorder. They take
online orders from everywhere in the world.
Some recordstores around the world also
carry some of our shirts.
Beware of ugly bootleg shirts though... |
| Do
you have a Fan-Club? |
| -
Nope... But join our e-mailing
list and get fresh MC news! |
| Do
you have any tabs or notes to your songs? |
-
No, We've never used tabs or written down
how to play our songs.
No one of us got the energy to sit down
and write them down.
When we decide to play someone elses song,
we just listen to the song and learn it
from listen to it. It's not that hard,
sharpen your ears!
Also look at other non-official
millencolin sites. There are a lot
of people who write down our songs. |
| Can
my band support you on your next tour? |
| -
This is a hard one to answer. We really
want to help bands out. There are just
too many asking. It's usually the club
where we play who put on the lokal band. |
| What's
the meaning of the yellow bird? |
| -
It's just a bird Erik draw for no specific
reason to our first demotape. It's been
like a logo and a "mascot thing"
ever since. |
| Can
I buy your old demotapes? |
-
No, they were sold out -93. We don't have
any copies left.
Look if you can find an old Burning Heart/Pacemaker
001 compilation cd called "Signed
For Life" with BHR bands old demotapesongs(we
don't know were to find it). The cd were
printed in 1000 copies -95.
There are also one old demosong in the
Hi8 Adventures video called "The
Tame". |
