Landsraad + Band in London, EN

SEEKING

ABOUT

We've been around a while and listened to a whole heap of sh*t in that time. Hopefully we sound like all the good bits.

All four members of Landsraad have had long experience in the UK live music scene and are no strangers to the stage.
Both guitarists had been in a well known metal band together and upon its demise still believed they had unfinished business on the Metal scene.
After several beer-driven discussions with a long-time friend and fellow stage veteran they had found their bass player, and began rehearsing the music they had been wanting to hear since their favourite bands had drifted into the pages of history at the beginning of the new millennium.
Many of these bands were consigned to their fate by the increasingly corporate direction of a genre that used to pride itself on fierce independence, a stance that has become shaky in the last few years of rampant commercialization..
The near-complete band embarked on a long and turbulent search for a drummer and, several candidates later, were lucky enough to enlist the talents of another experienced musician to complete the line-up at the beginning of 2010.
Landsraad are now unleashed, ready to help lead Metal back to where it should be, fighting the tide of mediocrity and screaming in the face of the establishment.

Influences: Machinehead/Arch Enemy/Slipknot/Lamb of God/Gojira etc etc..

You must be able to play well (and play the demo song posted below) , have your own kit (or within a few months of getting the gig...if you get it) we can rent a kit for your audition/rehearsals.

You MUST be a double kicker with an open approach to using triggers/samples, and be able to come up with ideas - we dont want to program you like a drum machine

We have all been in established bands before and know the drill so no absolute beginners please unless you are very very good !

And you must have a sense of humour!

Age isnt important if you are good enough

Dont be shy get in touch,
