Guest Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Nope. She was their fourth vocalist. Somewhere on her tumblr, so mentions something about why she left. Ugh, wannabe shoegaze bands and their female vocalists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I've been listening to 'shoegaze' bands since I was a little kid and I will say that Whirr does a great job at what they do. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I asked Kristina directly about it. She quit Whirr. They should get the singer from the now defunct Center Of The Sun. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindglow Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I spoke to Nick who pretty much runs all the contact of Whirr on Thursday about my shirt order and he said that all the orders have been sent out, I asked him about Kristina as well and he said that she was there 3rd singer and that it wasn't a big deal because they've had a different singer on every record and that she didn't leave the band but that they unfortunately had to remove her because they weren't on the same page.

nyhi Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 i had no idea they've had so many different singers. i feel pretty dumb right now for not knowing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 i had no idea they've had so many different singers. i feel pretty dumb right now for not knowing that. I feel like this is just one of those bands I need to be "mysterious" so I've never looked into it either. OT: Renewed my RC membership to get the new EP. I hope the LP is one of the next 9 releases after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forbenator Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Shirt arrived today!! For anybody who was wondering, these are shipping from Modesto, CA. Crazy for me, because I grew up in a town about 5 min south of there and had never once heard of these guys! And damn, I would have definitely heard of them!! Interesting... drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 They're still calling themselves Whirl on the return address. Thought that was funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 They should get the singer from the now defunct Center Of The Sun. dang it, lexicondevil, now I've got to check out more 'new' defunct music I vote for Miki from Lush She could whip those young guns into shape! Must be tough being the only dame in an all dude band otherwise....all the right chemistry and mojo and that stuff. I knew Kristina was at least the 3rd and might have been the 4th, and following her tweets from the Euro tour didn't get the feeling she was having a real chipper time. Best of success to her on the KW. Hopefully a couple of shirts waiting for me when I get home... edit: shirts home, like them both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I'm hoping they add a Seattle date, otherwise I'll probably make a trip down to Portland. Nothing being on that bill makes it really hard to resist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I vote for Miki from Lush She could whip those young guns into shape! Ha, that's awesome to see someone mention Lush. They are one of my all time favorite bands. Been listening to them since I was 6 years old. I would be stoked to see Miki return to music full time but she's doing the family/office life these days. She has done a few guest spots though. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicondevil Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Got an email that they are getting things in order for the record club. I'm really glad that Whirr test pushed me to finally join. That Hospital Ships record is starting to grow on me, especially that first song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
