Vocalist, Vocalist - Bass, Vocalist - Baritone, Vocalist - Tenor, Rhythm Guitar, Bass Guitar.ABOUT
We are currently a metal two piece aged 18 and 17 that have been together around six months and are looking for other members to complete the line up and move forward to gigging and professional recording.
We are currently working on writing our first EP for which we have a an overall concept and a few tracks written which we are demoing at home as we write using Pro Tools.
As of yet we have no finished and mastered demos, because with there only being two of us at present we are using the software as a song writing tool; however when we find new members and have a full line up we will be aiming to use it to create high quality demos.
We each have some experience in playing in bands and playing small shows however we are very passionate and dedicated to taking this band as far as we can with the aim of securing a living from touring.
As training goes Callum studied Music Performance at Newcastle College for two years and Luke is currently in his first year of studying Music Performance at Gateshead College.

EQUIPMENT
As guitar equipment goes we currently have two good 6 string electric guitars and a 6 string Epiphone acoustic guitar, with a Line 6 Spider IV 75 Watt 1x12" combo and a Boss OD-20 multi distortion pedal, however we are soon to be investing in a much more versatile multi-effects pedal, a larger valve combo (along the lines of a Blackstar 2x12") and new guitars, with a vision to start using 7 string guitars in some of the music when viable.
For drum gear we currently have a 5 piece Pearl kit with a set of 9 cymbals, however this is eventually expanding with the song writing and finances to a 10-12 piece kit with around 16 cymbals.
At home we have Pro Tools 12 set up with an Avid fast track solo audio interface and a basic microphone for demo quality vocal takes.
We are also running Toontrack's EZdrummer 2 and EZmix 2 to help with putting down drum tracks and creating guitar sounds without a professional studio setting.
