Very experienced, extra bored drummer, seek decent metal band

Los Angeles CA

Description

Hey ya'll, I'm an experienced metal drummer...20 years behind the drumkit. I like metal, and I like weird time signatures, tempo changes, groove prog stuff, double bass patterns and so on...yes I play with click and in-ear monitors, I can also play with backing tracks, synch lights and all the blablabla...you get it, I'm no newbie but I'm also super chill and humble. In the last year or so I've been super bored and uninspired with the music I hear...I mean there are good bands out there don't get me wrong, but not for my style. For instance, I like thrash metal, but I think the drums are boring af, I have no fun in playing only 4/4 with straight double bass 16th all the times or stuff like that...there is little to no groove or writing complexity, so overall just boring to play to me. I'm inspired by the drumming of bands like Death, Cynic, Dillinger, Periphery, Meshuggah, Pantera, Tesseract...and so on, even Limp Bizkit drumming is really cool and groovy, like it or not. I find jazz and fusion stuff very inspiring too. I'm looking for something modern and energetic, powerful, and not old/basic/boring. Not looking to start a band from scratch, have no energy for that no more, sorry. Please send me link to your music to make this quick and easy and I can share my stuff as well if interested. Thank you
