At the moment, I am primarily a bass player and vocalist, and I primarily stream Rocksmith on Twitch (twitch.tv/dies_mali)! I'm a pretty decent bass player for power metal, heavy metal, melo-death metal, doom metal, punk, classic rock, etc., but still getting my chops together a bit better for the really proggy stuff and thrash. As a bassist, I would preferably like to play power metal, melo-death, or doom metal, but not *too* concerned about branching out if it's good music!
Vocals-wise, I am a fully-trained classical mezzo-soprano, with a range covering both alto and soprano. I'm capable of more than competently singing difficult vocal material comparable to that of Nightwish, Epica, Unleash the Archers, etc. Obviously, this would need to be best-utilized in doom metal, symphonic metal, or power metal.
Note: I work with the bands DragonForce and Unleash the Archers on a daily basis, as their Twitch/Discord modmin and some graphic design, and also Lynd from Twilight Force on the rare occasions he streams. I'm friendly with multiple members of a number of other (mostly power metal) bands as well, and therefore have some interesting and potentially helpful industry contacts to bring with me as a member of a band.

Willing and able to acquire better live gig bass gear if/when it becomes necessary, of course.
