Guitarist and Drummer seek bassist for heavy metal band
We are two well rounded instrumentalists with likeminded musical direction. We are making original music and have a clear style and sound we are creating.
Both of us have been jamming or in bands before and have been playing our instruments intermittently for over 20 years.
We are looking for a bassist who can add their style and creativity to bring another layer of interest and musicality to the music.
We have written 6 songs that have been recorded using a phone
These recordings are available for you to listen to on Soundcloud so please take the time to listen through the 7 live tracks
Our goal is to produce a studio recording of our music. We anticipate 10 complete songs will be needed before we will be ready to record an album.
Here is a list of influences or bands we like, in no particular order -
Steve – Guitar
Deftones, Sydonia, Opeth, Gojira, Mudvayne, Incubus (earlier work), The Butterfly effect, Tool, Pantera, Machine head
Dante – Drums
Helmet, Meshuggah, Deftones, Sevendust, Tesseract, Snarky puppy, Plini, Foals, Animals as leaders, Soundgarden, Handsome
Our style is mostly straightforward, catchy, groove-based Metal. With the introduction of additional instruments we would also like to incorporate some progressive/technical, experimental and ambient elements into the music whilst maintaining the core sound.
Whilst our music doesn’t have any djent or prog elements we are open to experimenting with some of these elements. At the core of our music is straight forward, catchy, heavy groove-based metal and some mellow parts.
Owning and or having experience with recording software like Garageband, Reaper or Audio Interface would be advantageous but not essential.
Soooooo….If you’re a bass player who likes what you’re hearing on our Soundcloud page and you have energy, commitment, your own gear and wheels (preferred) and music to bring to our band we would be keen to hear from you.
