SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I'm a rock/metal drummer/guitarist, looking to join a band on either/both! I think I'm a better drummer than guitarist, but I'm competent on either.
Ideally, I'd like to join a flexible band where I can play both guitar and drums (not on the same song, obviously). I have a selection of guitars, and my own cymbals/snare/sticks, an acoustic kit, as well as an electric one for practice.
I like all sorts of music: Prog, Metal, Rock, etc, etc. Mostly anything with a guitar and/or some talent in it, I'll listen.
I have a decent-sized back catalogue of riffs and part-songs written and some are recorded (just at home, nothing professional).
A video of me practising for a drum audition:

A selection of my recordings (some use drum loops, some are live recordings off my electronic kit):
- http://www.drarok/files/Reach%20v3.0.mp3 (based on having one guitar playing a very simple pattern while the other moves around, 2 guitarists required else it sounds really drab. I think this one is drum loops.)
- http://www.drarok/files/Burn.mp3 (drum loops / programmed kick drum)
- http://www.drarok/files/Standard%207%20%28Extended%29.mp3 (drum loops / programmed)
- http://www.drarok/files/Kohnahm%20-%20Untitled%20%28Extended%20with%20New%20Drums%29.mp3 (start of this one is in 9/4, it's all live drums)
- http://www.drarok/files/Trapped%20Inside%20v2.7.mp3 (this is a pretty old one, excuse the nasty guitar tone, especially at the end, all live drums)
Either drop me a reply or message on here, or email bandcatchall.drarok - cheers!
