I'm looking to start (or join) a band or project after being out of the game for the last couple of years or so.
I used to play guitar in a metal/grind band and messed about on keyboards and effects in a kind of ambient band, but neither of those styles are necessarily the direction I want to go in. I certainly dont want to play guitar in any sort of metal band.

Saying that though, I'd love to try out on vocals for a decent (technical?)metal band - something along the lines of Red Chord, Ion Dissonance, Between the Buried and Me etc - obviously not just to re-hash their work or just 'fit in' with the genre...
No idea if I'd be any good but I'm really keen to try it out! Like I said, I wouldn't want to play guitar but I've got loads of ideas musically.

That would be top of my list right now but I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music and I'd like to try anything different. I'm really interested in an acoustic project of some kind, maybe with some cool female vocals, but doing something different with it - again, don't really wanna just fit in to a certain genre or style...

Too many ideas to put down here anyway!

You always hear people say they listen to all kinds of music, when really they mean they like one or two different types... I actually do have quite an eclectic taste I like to think - metal, hiphop, grime, rock, modern classical and even the odd bit of pop music to name just a few.

So if you're interested in working on something give me a shout - I just want to start making good music again, be creative and have a laugh, and hopefully get some gigs lined up, and just see what happens. I'm past kidding myself that it's easy to make millions and have a career in music lol but I guess you never know.

hey there, i'm a singer/lyricist. Used to play in a trad metal band, and also a kind of grungey band. looking to get a new rock band together - something really creative, original and exciting . i love all kinds of stuff: The Police/ Van Halen/ Alice In Chains/ David Bowie/ Guns N Roses/ Nirvana/ Marilyn Manson/ Nine Inch Nails/ Smashing Pumpkins, The Rolling Stones/ The Who to name just a few. Also love pop music and some heavier stuff too. Looking to start a band that rocks hard with groovy bass lines but also acoustic songs too. My vocals are kind of mid to high - can sing grunge stuff and i high like sting too. anyway let me know if this sounds interesting. I can send you a vocal demo if so. cheers, laurence
