ABOUT

Looking to start a new, or join an existing band.

Think down-tuned guitars with big riffs and in your face energetic live performance. Imagine Doomriders, Red Fang etc, but with the energy and lets-f*ck-stuff-up-ness of The Dillinger Escape Plan live shows and that's sort of where I want to be, but with our own unique sound. Adding a synth / keys player for atmosphere would be cool, though this is not essential.

Anyone between 21 and 30ish is good.

I just wanna make some cool music and try to turn it into a thing.

I've got transport and gear but obviously it would be better if you do too. I've got lots of experience touring and gigging the UK as both a guitarist and a drummer, but now I want next level and I need people who are on the same page.

If you've already got a thing going and need a drummer, send me some links to your stuff.

Message me and let's see. Don't waste my time though; I've had more than enough time with flaky dropouts. I want this to be taken seriously, which will mean commitment in every sense of the word and the desire to want to succeed. An open mind musically is essential, so check that "death to all but metal" sh*t at the door.

I want people who dream big and want it to happen.

Ideally, I'd also like:

A guitarist who will jump and slam around.

A vocalist who will get in people's faces and in the crowd.

A bass player who understands there are options other than perpetual root notes.
