About
Seeking any and all auditions / musicians / projects etc. If you have an idea or are in need of this that or the other let's work together!
Hey I'm Stuthedew. I'm into playing oldschool influenced heavy metal. I've been in bands though highschool. currently making a new project called "Shadow Inducer"
As for what I can do, I'm pretty skilled with guitar. I can handle leads of about any style and speed. I can do bass and keys for studio purposes, and I know how to run Logic and Garageband and stuff like that to get a demo made.
If you're interested message me at Stuthedew0 @ yahoo-dot-com. Or message me on here, Whatever ya wanna do. [This goofy thing won't let you post email addresses.]
Influences
Guitarists: Randy Rhoads, EVH, Chris DeGaremo, Dave Murray, K.K. Downing, George Lynch. I'm kinda influenced by some Malmsteen and Michael Angelo Batio and whatnot, but I'm not really a technical dazzle kinda guy. Speed is great but melody is more important. Brian May is cool too, I always thought Queen had a cool guitar sound, but never quite got "heavy". I really like treble and grit in my tone and unique flavoring to my playing and scales. I like things right on the brink of being too heavy, and backed off just a tad.
Composition: I never really write to sound like anyone else, I just go into it and feed off everyone elses ideas, ya know. Sometimes you'll write a riff or a section that sounds like your influences, but that's just how it goes sometimes. I would classify most my work as very NWOBHM at times, but I do enjoy Crue and other American style more "hair metal" bands. Van Halen and Old Quiet Riot with Randy Rhoads are definite influences, with their whole 80's L.A. party rock sound. 70's stoner rock is a big part of my sound too. I don't like to pigeonhole myself into anything, but I'm not very well acquainted with contemporary metal and rock.
