I'm a drummer/guitarist/bass player who also writes music. I'm looking for specifically a progressive metal/djent band to play drums for. I'm open to other genres too. If someone just wants to jam and see where it goes from there, that's cool too. I just really want to play music that is on the spectrum of rock. I have had some experience with jazz and I used to be in a Latin-blues band. However, metal has always been my big passion in music... which is the reason I left with my previous band. ------------------------------------------------- Right now, I have multiple metal songs written but alas, no band to play them with. --------------------------------------------------------- My double bass speed is stable around sixteenth notes for 190-200 BPM (around "Are We Dead Yet" or "Through The Fire And Flames" speed). I can give short bursts above that however. Double bass speed is getting faster and I'm improving as I practice. ---------------------------------------------------------- In the videos section, there is one of me playing with my old band (to show I can at least play). The other is to a song I wrote, although I haven't recorded it yet. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh and I can read drum sheet music and hear out parts, for whatever that is worth. I'm also drug free.
Metal Influences (from most to least): ERRA, Animals As Leaders, Periphery Bullet For My Valentine, All That Remains, The Autumn Descent, TesseracT, Dream Theater Other Influences: Glassjaw, Goo Goo Dolls, My Chemical Romance, Breaking Benjamin, Rise Against
