Description

It has been far too long since I have been in a competent, gigging band. My soul now demands the raw aggression and volume! I need the saturation and overdrive! A cathartic release.. And to be honest, a distraction.. I am freshly broken, and squandering at the moment. A derilict really. Floating around this armpit of a city. So we are going to have material to write around for days!! Ideally, I would like to find like minded individuals who also want to be a part of the writing process. Lyrics, riffs, concepts, nonsense, poetry, e.t.c. e.t.c. I know I am not the only broken one living around here. Let's transfer the pain to our strings, and to our amplifiers my friends! -LOGISTICS- I am 36 years old. I am most comfortable on the bass guitar, and I have the proper gear for such. Although my heart does lie in the, loud, dirty, stoner rock, doom metal, thrash metal styles, I am an open minded individual and have no problem pursuing something more out of the box. I dabble in the odd times, and can speak theory, if you are someone who has a mind and ear for that. The only con at the moment is I do not have a place to rehearse. Hopefully, something will come about soon. Until then, if you actually sat here and read through this thing, and it sounds like it might be up your alley, please reach out! I'm down with the power trio, or dual guitars. Singers who can pick, or not pick. Female, male, LBGTQ, ye all apply! I don't know if this ever helps in these ads, but, none the less, here are some of my major influences... YOB, Monolord, Havok, Russian Circles, Acid Mammoth, Radiohead, Bjork, Sleepy Time Gorilla Museum, Bela Bartok, Wagner, Anything Les Claypool touches!, Floater, Andre Nickatina, Andre 3000, Anything Maynard James Keenan touches! 1990's Seattle, Tom Waits, Depression, Suicidal Tendancies. Friedrich Nietzsche. The Doors, William Blake, Aldous Huxley, The Grateful Dead. Portishead, Deftones, and Sabbath... To name a few. Thank you for taking the time to read all the way through, and I hope to hear from ya soon.! SKAL!! -Brandon (Iron Beard)
