Hello, I'm putting up an ad here to search for a guitarist and vocalist for a progressive power metal project. Tom and I (both of Morden fame) posted an ad for this previously, before the server crash, where it was lost into the digital abyss, but upon finding an excellent keyboard player, our interest in writing and performing progressive power metal has been re-ignited!
Each of us have a wide variety of influence within and outside of progressive and power metal, but centered on bands such as Symphony X, Adagio, and Evergrey. The list goes on. At the moment we are composed of a drummer, bassist, and keyboardist, all of us being very keen to get something going. At this stage, we do not have a name, but we'll be brainstorming one as soon as we can.
As for a guitarist, we're looking for a player with similar influences and a strong interest in progressive/power metal. At the moment, we're thinking the one guitarist (playing leads and rhythm where appropriate) would be most suited. We're open to the idea of two guitarists if it ends up being entirely neccesary, but would prefer to just have the one guitarist, for a variety of reasons. Hopefully, any prospective guitarist would be fairly technically/musically skilled, capable of playing leads (a little song writing ability wouldn't go astray either), and in possession of decent equipment.
In a vocalist, we seek someone with a good CLEAN voice and range, we're not after a death/black metal vocalist (although the ability to perform death grunts or black metal rasps additionally can't hurt, as there's a small chance we'd feel like incorporating them, in the vain of songs such as "Dominate" by Adagio, or "Direction Perfection" by Dragonland). Ideally, someone with similar influence would be best. While we're open to either a male or female vocalist, we think a male vocalist would probably be most suitable.
If you feel you're either of these, please do reply here, or contact us at:
