Talk:The Apostles (band)

This page the first linked to?
Why is this page the first to come up when the words "the Apostles" are typed into search? Pretty sure most people aren't looking for an obscure punk band with that search term... 87.114.134.69 (talk) 02:17, 20 August 2009 (UTC)Ur-Lugal

Yeah, I can't think of argument to the contrary here. Someone who knows how please do this. I'm a neoludite who can't do crap. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.57.69.224 (talk) 02:24, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

blatant plagiarism
Something that interests me is that the Apostles often put new lyrics to someone else's tune or at least took a chunk of a song and incorporated it into their own. I will have to get out my vinyl but tunes that they have used off the top of my head are:

Apostles - Swimming in the Sea of Life = Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird

Apostles - The Witness = The Pack - King of Kings

Apostles - Pigs for Slaughter = The Pack - No. 12

Apostles - Walking Away = Joy Division - Day Of The Lords

Anyone know any more? Stutley 18:07, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I've never heard anything by them, but you mentioning "Pigs for Slaughter" as a rip-off of another band is funny, since Oi Polloi's song "Pigs for Slaughter" was ripped-off the Apostles (by Oi Polloi's own admission). They changed the music though, and after a while, the lyrics as well.  Ungovernable Force  Poll: Which religious text should I read? 06:06, 7 February 2007 (UTC)


 * 'The Hunt' is a plagiarism of Thin Lizzy's 'Emerald'. They also pinched some tunes by The Fall I beleive, bless'em 77.96.212.87 (talk) 20:24, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
