Metalcore Vocalist and Second Guitarist WANTED!

Keyport NJ

Description

3 piece Metalcore band (drums, guitar, bass) is in search for a permanent Vocalist and 2nd guitarist. We are in our early-mid 30s and are extremely committed to music and taking this band as far as possible. All of us have played many shows and have plenty of experience writing and recording. We want to create opportunities for ourselves rather than waiting for “the big break” by working hard and growing through extensive marketing, perfecting our recordings/mixes, relentless networking, and collectively becoming better overall musicians. We are extremely transparent with each other and constantly try to make each song fresh and different from the previous, while still staying true to our core sound (heavy, melodic, unpredictable, etc). We are looking for a vocalist who is proficient in BOTH singing and screaming. Stylistic and tonal ‘fit’ is extremely important to us, along with the the ability to write catchy hooks and melodies (Jesse/Howard from Killswitch, Oli Sykes from BMTH, Matt Tuck from BFMV to name a few). Reliability, dedication, and energetic stage presence is an absolute must. Similar criteria goes for what we’re looking for in a guitarist. Ultimately, we want to find talented musicians who can learn and cleanly play the current material and also be able to contribute to the writing process. Currently, we practice 1-2 times per week at the drummers house in Union Beach NJ. Our influences include, but are not limited to: Pantera, I Prevail, Ice Nine Kills, BFMV, Killswitch, Architects, Slipknot, Wage War, Currents, BMTH, etc.  Below are 3 demos that we’ve put together to give you an idea of what we sound like. We currently have 16 songs in total that all of us are extremely excited about, so more demos can be provided upon request. Please reply by telling us a little bit about yourself, your musical background, and the gear that you own/use. Also, please send us some demos or videos of your current/previous work so we can get an idea of your skill and style. Thank you!
