SEEKING
Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
I'm looking for a bassist and a drummer (and lead guitarist)*, preferably with general singing abilities who is as dedicated and mental as I am in trying to write and play the best music we could possibly write, blending the energy of the heaviest of metal whist retaining quite a melodic approach to the song writing. I have a lot of material I wrote spanning from years of development and wish to release them individually when the time is right, sincerely believing in their potential.
I've been playing guitar since I was 9 and have always been driven to spend most of my time since then, trying to be the best I could be, by spending many long days and nights perfecting my playing and song writing. I used to idolize Hetfield as a kid, which set the bar for me to focus on ensuring that my rhythm playing and singing is unmistakably strong.
I believe that good song writing is key and spent a lot of my teen years trying to understand as to why songs have a certain appeal. A part of maturing as a musician was realising that all music is music and I like to pick apart songs in my head as well as to try to understand why we feel so attached to a certain chorus melody, for example. I like to intertwine aspects of other genres into metal, in a similar fashion to how Joey Jordison would utilize old school jungle beats into his playing. My song writing style is some what versatile, not exactly to prog levels, however have taken inspiration from songs based around a more hardcore influenced sound to neo classical. I generally do love metal for its virtuosity and energy and wish to push it to its limits whilst retaining a sound accessible for your run-of-the-mill metal heads.
I'd like to think I have great stage presence and I generally care about ensuring every gig is like our last, making sure the onstage antics doesn't get in the way of how tight the playing is. I'm a kind , honest, confident guy who has a lot of patience for people and will happily sacrifice a lot of time if your intention is hardworking and focused.
