I am a 23 year old drummer new to Cary and I am looking to get into the area scene. I have been playing for about six years and have extensive experience with touring, recording, writing and promoting. My previous bands have opened for acts such as Testament, Soilwork, Into Eternity, Symphony X, Death Angel, God Forbid, Katatonia, Scar Symmetry, Exodus, Insomnium, Swallow The Sun, Arsis, Goatwhore, Warbringer, Mushroomhead and numerous others. I am also currently sponsored by Soultone Cymbals and Los Cabos Drumsticks. I am a subtle drummer, very tasteful, steady, solid and have been referred to as 'meat and potatoes'. I play for the overall music and not to just display my own ability.
My main interest is to start another melodic death band similar to my last project, Subdue. The main influences for this would be Engel, One Way Mirror, Hatesphere, Soilwork and The Duskfall. I would like the music to be heavily guitar-driven with a strong attention to melody, harmony and solos. Vocally, I would like a person who can transition between harsh vocals and huge, clean choruses. I understand that this formula has been beaten to death but I would hope to find other musicians who love the genre and can maybe add a little twist to stand out.
I would be looking to do originals and maybe a couple covers here and there. My level of committment is to play around the area a few times a month and would be happy with a bit of local buzz. I live in an apartment and therefor do not have a place to practice. Also, I am a web designer and have often handled all web/design work for previous projects. I would prefer to join an existing band but have no issue starting from scratch.
