« on: June 18, 2009, 01:04:23 AM »

I have a Drummer, Guitarist and Singer - And yes 'We' is actually 'Me'!

Drummer of 5 years - Good Gear, Funky grooves, ambient cymbalation, sexy blasts, non trigger-happy double kicks

Guitarist of 6 years  - Pro Gear, not-so-funkyness, anal tearing riffage, down syndrome drone tone, upbeat antics

Singer of yesterday - Good Gear, can do pretty much any type of growl - gimme a band and i can mimic it (yeah i know copying bands is bullshit, but yeah, that's why i have a clean voice - to do my own thing - if that's what u call it)

21 years since i exploded from the womb.

DJ shadow - Tool - Isis - Dillinger Escape Plan - Norma Jean - Opeth - The Mars Volta - Psycroptic

I have been playing roughly 5 years
i am open to almost any style of music contained within the "metal" genre and some that are not.
have decent gear and a place to jam
i play guitar aswell so i can contribute to writing
looking for a serious band/people to jam with to gig as soon as we get the songs down.
blasting, double kicks no problem, got groove and a distinct style, heavily influenced by funk, death metal and experimental music.
