TEXT is the band founded by Kristofer Steen, David Sandström, Fredrik Bäckström and Jon F Brännström. All, except Bäckström, were ex-members of hardcore band Refused. Stylistically, they have little in common with Refused. Their debut album, Text, is a mix of spoken word, music of various styles, and ambient sound effects, often producing an ethereal, avant-garde sound. Apart from the three "Tableau" tracks (which are one piece, split up across the album), each track could be described as fitting into a different genre. In 2008, a second album, Vital Signs, was released. Yet again the style of music is far from Refused and the first Text album. Only Fredrik Bäckström and Jon F Brännström appear on this album.
The record came out on Demonbox Recordings in Sweden and on Buddyhead in America and the rest of the world. Text – "Text" was Buddyhead #4 and considered a building block in what is now a very successfully diverse indie-boutique-label run by music journalist Travis Keller. Text announced a US tour the year after the record was released on Buddyhead but due to conflicts with International Noise Conspiracy tours, it was cancelled.

    There was a slight delay when you were typing and it was down to the smilies bar I had installed. So I've removed it. But not the smilies. Those are added to a post by clicking the happy face in the text options area now.

    Keeping text messages

    Do you keep your text messages, or just delete them fairly quickly? Remember they are a record of communications with a customer & can be used, like email letters as such.

    Text Santa

    We've only just got over Children in Need and now Text Santa is on telly begging for money. Is this the future of tv 'entertainment', evangelistic style appeals featuring gushing 'celebrities' and orgasmic audiences. Perhaps the Mayans were accurate and the world really did end this morning.

    Business Cards - Size Does Matter

    Instead of using standard size Business Cards that everyone loses, try using post card size cards, bigger and better to read and customers are more likely to keep safe and use when they require your service, great for any trade to use, just an idea that I came up with.
