SEEKING

ABOUT

Greetings everyone!
I am 38 year male Death Metal, Thrash, Hard Rock, Classic Rock guitarist, located in South Elgin. I've been playing guitar/ bass for 26 years (1997). I'm pretty much looking to join a established "Death Metal" band who have their own original music (and is willing to accept mine) and who wants and/or is ready to tour.
I am not opposed to creating a band from the ground up though.
I have no wife and no kids.
I like my weed and an occasional beer.
No hard liquor or anything else.
My main jam is rhythm guitar but leads (getting better each month), harmonies and backing vocals are not a problem.
Check out my Videos and the Audio here.
All of the "SWOLA's" are original material.
