Los Angeles Area: Start a Band Like Thou/His Hero Is Gone/Cursed
I'm moving to the LA area in August and looking to start something cool. Would love to do something LOUD, fast, but also slow, with lots of twists and turns. Big fan of bands like Dead in the Dirt, HHIG, Yautja, EyeHateGod, Cursed, Left For Dead, The Swarm, etc. I like a lot of other stuff too in the lane of more straight forward hardcore, screamo (Neil Perry, Joshua Fit For Battle, PG99), Sludge, Grindcore, as well as stuff like Melvins, Helmet, Soundgarden, Quicksand, Handsome, Cast Iron Hike, Shift. Idk I like a lot of stuff.
A little about me- Im 34, I've played in a bunch of bands (can send examples), don't personally drink or do drugs but I'm not straight edge and really don't care what other people do. I play guitar, bass, drums, vocals, and I'm a recording engineer. My ideal project would be a three piece, guitarist/vocalist (ideally what I'd like to play), bass/vocals, drums. Think big stereo guiar rig, the more 8x10 bass cabs the better, hard hitting drums. I'm open to all kinds of stuff though. I've got gear and riffs!
Shoot me a message if you'd be interested in jamming, talking music, trading gear, whatever. I'm a nice dude and like talkin' shop.
