I am the singer and bass player for my punk band, Spank Acid, and we have been members of Cardiff Soundscene for the past two years.
Soundscene helps young bands. It gives us the chance to use rehearsal rooms and studios with drums, amps, guitars and leads at cheap rates, which we couldn't otherwise afford.
We have recorded a demo CD at the studio, which only cost us 130, and we gave them away free. We've also done two gigs, which was brilliant because they had a big stage.
The Soundscene is great fun and gave us a kick up the arse to do something.
There is also an active messageboard community on its web site, www.soundsceneuk.com.
