Talk:Infadels

Comments
To whom it may concern - i don't understand why the page is marked for speedy deletion. the band have an album out that got to no. 1 in the dance charts, they are a regular on TV and radio. 2 of their songs have been used for TV adverts and one member of the band already has his own page on wikipedia anyway!!!
 * Hmm. As I am a keen listener of Radio 2, I should know about them. Yet I've never heard about them, neither have I heard about them on Newround. Could you give proof they were on these places? J.J.Sagnella 20:09, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm dickweed of course they fuckin exist. You listen to radio 2 so that makes you a music expert does it? I know you made this comment before they got big, but thats not excuse for being such a shit shoveler.
 * I suspect J.J.Sagnella misread the phrase "...a regular on TV and radio. 2 of their songs..." to mean they were on Radio 2, which knowing this band's music is quite unlikely. Personally I don't think making a mistake like that really deserves the label "shit shoveller", but maybe that's just me.  31.55.40.156 (talk) 21:33, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

3 Mobile (advert using infadels song) - http://www.visit4info.com/details.cfm?adid=17506&bp=/search/?pg=charts&l=cmpick  watch the advert then got to: http://www.cmumusicnetwork.co.uk/interviews/infadels.html  to read an interview with the band discussing the advert.

Atari (advert using infadels song) - go to the following link, select UK, then "videos". video 6 entitled "can't get enough" uses the Infadels song of the same name - http://www.atari.com/driver/

Channel 4 and ipod advert. the band played live on T4 earlier this year(will have to check date) i have the vid on my harddrive but can't find a reference to it from channel 4 website. however the website has the video for Cubicle, the ipod advert Song written and sung by Bnann from Infadels. it clearly makes reference to the band - http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/t4/stars/rinocerose.html

Amazon.co.uk sell all infadels albums and singles as do all other major retailers. http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/search-handle-form/026-7588185-3772442. HMV - http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/simpleSearch.do?pGroupID=-1&simpleSearchString=infadels&primaryID=-1

there are even sites selling ringtones of infadels songs. here's one selling an appalling syth version of "can't get enough" - http://www.web2txt.co.uk/polyphonic-ringtones-new.php?toneid=35407  i hope we both agree that it is only worth a company paying to use a track, paying to programme a version of and sell the track as a ringtone if they think there is a reasonable market out there!

The band are unlikely to ever be played on bbc radio 2 as it's the wrong kind of playlist! While Infadels were played as backing music to a report on the BBC children's news programme "Newsround" the BBC doesn't publish names of the songs they use. HOWEVER here is a link to an article stating that Newsround used their song - http://www.uk-fusion.com/content/view/1219/30/

A google search for the band or a google image search for the band gives pages and pages of results.

I can provide more links if necessary. please let me know.
 * After Doing an amazon search, I have to agree this band is definitely notable and should definitely stay. J.J.Sagnella 06:54, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Is it possible to change the name to Infadels? They dropped the "The" after their first release of Can't Get Enough (Dead 002) - not the WOS release. So they have therefore released most of their stuff under the name of Infadels. Check out the discogs.com pages for scans etc if you want confirmation.

 * I was thinking the same thing, particularly seeing as the album is called We Are Not The Infadels ;) The article uses Infadels, so it makes sense to change it. I have taken the liberty of making the move. - Nzd   (talk)  10:59, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I added a picture of The Infadels I took in Brest (France) one month ago. That's the first time I add a picture, I hope here's no problem...

I've just restored the page to an earlier version after it was sabotaged by "Biffo the Bear". Not funny. - Paul**, 9 Feb 07

Now added a Trivia section and started to try and input references. --Paul** 18:51, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Weasel words / lack of citations
I feel that the bio section sounds more like an official piece of PR. E.g: "The band is known for its frenetic live shows and a work ethic that saw them rack up over 300 performances across 3 continents in less than 3 years." - citations should be added or the text should be removed.Tomclarke (talk) 14:03, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

What happened
to the guys ever since? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.11.199.108 (talk) 20:32, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

dunno.... I saw them fairly early in their career, at the monarch in camden. I'd gone there on spec, not knowing who was playing, & the first person I saw was alex's dad, bill bruford, on his own. I struck up conversation with him & watched the band with him, both of us clutching pints & cigs. those were different times. fallout from this meeting, btw, was the video release of bruford senior's "rock goes to college" appearance, which I told him I'd got a copy of via a mate at the bbc; we exchanged details so I could get a vhs to him & when he'd recovered from his "embarrassment", it was licensed to voiceprint. someone will be along in a minute to tidy this up & tell me (again) that this is not what talk pages are for. do us a favour- wind your neck in, go do some tidying where it's really needed. duncanrmi (talk) 15:23, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
