SEEKING

ABOUT

Hey, I'm Ezekiel. Guitarist and vocalist of 14 years. Still pretty new to LA. I had a full-time band back home in Pittsburgh, PA but they didn't move out here so I'm looking to find new members or form something new.
My songwriting style is best described as progressive metal - biggest noticeable influences would be Opeth, Tool, Death, and Vektor, along with various thrash like the Big Four, and classic rock/progressive rock such as Pink Floyd, Yes, The Beatles, and Jethro Tull.

I know this is pretty stereotypical to say, but I'm looking to 'break the mold' more than what I see most bands doing. I don't want to just be a 'classic' metal band or a 'thrash' metal band or a 'death' metal band. I want to incorporate all of the above, as well as many other styles, and delve into new territories in order to hopefully make a sound of our own (and without sounding like just a random mishmash of styles - something more coherent and focused yet unafraid to explore sonically).

Check out my videos to get an idea, and hit me up if you're interested in jamming.

Just in case I don't respond on here, it would probably be better to hit me up on FB. I would provide a link but this site blocks it out for some reason, so just look up Ezekiel Kaplan

Thanks!
