RichardM + Musician in Portsmouth, EN

ABOUT

Metal guitarist with real day job, but a real love of playing. Likes metal with a good groove, drive, pace, aggression, interest factor and high technical content - enjoy to be challenged / pushed. I don't want to just strum out repettive, dull crp! I play with a 5 piece metal act, Portsmouth based (The Sorrow of Mastema) - see above and below to get an idea of what we do!
