it’s urban indie rock and roll for me

A major label A&R writes: “Here’s my personal best so far. This was sent to me (just a letter) a couple of months ago: (ALL typos and spelling are replicated exactly as in the letter) check the myspace as you read this. It’s mind blowing.”

Yes, make sure you do have a look all over his Myspace page.

“St Jack and john sully”

[Hand written in the top right hand corner – “Song 8 on the website is my ‘teen spirit’]

St.jack are a band from Islington north London and are doing urban indie rough-edged rock, it counteracts all that student crap of coldplay etc etc, we are like “the doors”, “the jam” and “nirvana”, if you look at the website the girls really like this band and the music and we already have a great british and worldwide following. “oasis” are finished and the public like the time before “nirvana” are dying for this great new rock, and it is coming out of London like punk in the late 70’s.we have over 100 songs and this could easily become a movement if you have the vision, john sully the singer and writer is goodlooking and could be the ultimate frontman and he writes songs like no other.our web address is www.myspace.com/xx66 and the phone is 0207 XXX XXXX, try e-mail at johnsully@xxx.xxx , hip hop and shiity r+b is a sick evil beast that needs to be put out of it’s misery. Just like nirvana shit on micheal Jackson in’91.wesetrn youth are literally dying for the new wine and I hope you have the vision to see this, you must ask yourself why all the girls across Europe are digging this band and site, some on and lets start the revolution that has been missing all this century, they reject the violent thugs of hip hop and the little schoolboys of boybanderry,

Stables full of shite mean nothing to British youth, they know a wrongen and they know the real thing.

John Sully

[then scrawled in ink at the bottom of the page]

1. Teardrop Explodes

2. The jam

3. Nirvana

4. The doors

5. More beautiful + more numbers of girls on my website than ‘Take That’s’ website

“A quick glance at the myspace easily answers the main question John seems to be posing. The “girls” who are so clearly “digging this band and site” are the sort of Tila Tequila wannabees that would add any and everyone. If that’s the future of Rock n Roll, well, I guess I’m done.”

  1. This is rivalling Final Placement for its melodic prowess. I’m also fairly sure he’s very very single.

  2. Have you read his poetry? The line “a virgin lies awake on a hard ghetto mattress” is autobiographical, I expect.

  6. Amazing scenes. Hey, John Sully! How many records does it take to hit the top? Five at the moment but it’ll soon be ten? Who says the music industry is dying, eh?

    You’re my favourite.

  8. HOLY CRAP I WAS NOT EXPECTING AN ‘ADULT’!

    I love the hypocrisy in the response above – it takes 5 CDs to reach #1: does that mean he’s incapable of selling 5 CDs? Threatening the A&R and yet referring to those they do sign as “backstreet thugs and deadheads”? I don’t know whether to laugh or cry :D

    Glad we’ve connected

  13. I used to be a fan of yours John but now I’ve been shown your comments on this website I see you are nothing but a thug and a bully!!!!!! Drinking with the IRA?????!!!! Whacking people?!??!! Myspace is blocked at work but I’m unfriending you as soon as I get home!!! You disgust me!!!!!!!!

    Kristina commented on April 5th, 2010 at 9:52 am

  14. Urban indie will miss you, but the movement will continue

    gertcha commented on April 5th, 2010 at 12:39 pm

  15. Wow. The vitriolic and hyperbolic response from Mr Sully is pretty astounding when you consider that the guy that posted this made no criticism of his music whatsoever. The only point he actually raises is about the girls on his myspace being fabricated.

    If that’s enough to insight death threats, imagine what would happen if Mr Sully ever actually got a bad review! Guess that would be enough for ‘his god’ (who apparently doesn’t like people who release Hip Hop but DOES like those who would kill someone who facilitates the release of Hip Hop) to rain down fire and brimstone!!!!!!!!

    The industry is shit, but he wants “sales like the Beatles”. Good luck with that then John. Maybe your horrificly racist and barbaric God will help you out?

    Bruiser commented on April 6th, 2010 at 1:55 pm

  16. You’ve been a bad boy John Sully, I’m a big Jay-Z fan, I’ve got 99 Problems and you’re definitely one.

    God commented on April 7th, 2010 at 11:05 am

  17. just keep witting John, you’re music is too painful to listen to….. The rantings of a lunatic a much more entertaining on paper than in song – why not try going for a book deal instead

    good luck with your fight against Satan – he’s got his work cut out for him this time…..

    Paulo commented on April 7th, 2010 at 12:04 pm

  18. We’ve had to filter out the other eight of John’s responses to this, for his own safety. Don’t really want the police involved – after all, he’s admitted to ‘whacking’, ‘IRA’ involvement and now they have his photos too. That ain’t our bag.

    admin commented on April 7th, 2010 at 4:36 pm

  19. Wow – simply wow….

  21. I really don’t know how I feel after seeing this. This is either a joke or Mr Sully has some serious illness/delusions.

    Sorry, but this is not about to lead a revolution for the youth of today. It’s bog standard pub rock, there are a thousand band who sound similar, many are better and almost all are blessed with better communication skills.

  22. - John Sully: “cast them into the hip hop pits of hell where they belong” and ” God destroy hip hop and the record co.’s that suck on youth”

    - John Sully’s ‘friend’ Dylan Quent on myspace: http://www.myspace.com/qieek

    - Johns Comment: hey dylan, , , cool sounds, , ,talent is at work, , ,, cool site, , , , drive it and drive it to genius, , , ,greetings from london, , . .
