Hey everyone,
As some of you will know NEVERBORN is without a full-time drummer extrordinaire. For the beginning of this year we have been lucky enough to recieve the assistance, guidance, advocacy, counselling of Perth Drumming God Daniel Grainger. This has been an awesome experience for the four of us and we are very very greatful for Dan stepping in and helping us out for a good 8-10 months. Unfortunatley, for us, Dan cannot stay on in his interim position indefinatley so we have the exciting task of locating a new skins man/lady.
Some of you have probably seen us play live before/ talked to us/ have one of our albums but for those haven't, even those who have, here is some information for you:
Neverborn is a (Western Front) award-winng
metal band, our style is hard to define but i would say it is somewhere between progressive/death/black/groove/thrash/core metal and circus music. We always aim to try new things, incorporate new styles whilst taking our music to both heavier and more melodic places with each release we put out. So far we have released 3 full length albums, all of which are available from us. At the moment we are reviewing storyboards for a videoclip we will be producing from the album "Decimator". This will be recorded during the middle of the this year for a late year release and it would be awesome to have a new drummer on board for that. We are also writing a new album as we speak which we are planning to record in the first half of 2012. We will also be planning some interstate and international tours in support of the videoclip and new album in 2011/2012.
This is a great opportunity for a skilled drummer who wishes to play some great music, contribute to the writing and recording of material, be involved in the promotion and production of various medias (Filmclips, DVD, Merchandise, Album) plus possible interstate and international touring within the next 18 months. We are also pretty good dudes so I can guarentee you'll have some fun too.
What we need: A skilled, professional (and preferably) experienced Drummer willing to commit to NEVERBORN as a full-time member. We wont ask for exclusivity or anything like that so you are free to do whatever other music you want to as long as you are committed fully to NEVERBORN. Although we will not ask you to contribute to the videoclip or any other expenses we have planned in the immediate future, we do all contribute fianancially (In some way or another) when we are recording, if you fit really well with us but dont have a job we wont knock you back or anything but some contribution would be expected down the track.
In terms of skill, double-kick skill and speed are essential, however, we arent a brutal techinal death metal band so you dont have to be the fastest drummer ever. WE incorporate alot of different styles of drumming so versitility would be handy as well as a desire to try new things and contribute some cool stuff when writing. If you only want to play technical death metal and blastbeats, its probably not the right gig for you. Obviously we would like someone who is a fast learner as we have many songs and dont want to take a huge break from gigging. We are patient, however, so no need to feel pressured to play the songs 100% in a week. Aside from that, just being a good dude or lady is about all we ask.
If you are interested in trying out or want any more information on us feel free to contact myself (Matty) on 0413466469 or email us on neverbornmetal@gmail.com
Hopefully we hear back from some mad dog soon as we are very excited about filling this new position and starting a new chapter of the NEVERBORN chronicles.
Thanks for reading this eassay
