New Side Project: 5 guitars + 1 drummer
1) I miss loud electric guitar.
2) I want to create a side project/band that is loud, rockin', borderline brutal, and completely fun.
3) I don't have much time. Therefore, rehearsals will be minimal. Guts will be maximal.
4) This band will have 5 electric guitar players and 1 drummer.
5) I'm not kidding.
6) If it sounds as cool as I think it will, we'll record an EP.
Email me if you're a) interested and like the idea, b) great, c) have a little time and d) play electric guitar and or drums.
This is either going to be epic or an epic fail. Either way, it'll be fun.
P.S. Think supergroup.
P.P.S. Guitarists -- the 5 guitars will be used like an orchestra -- interlocking parts, harmonies, frequencies, ya know.
P.P.P.S. Drummer -- you must have the heart of a lion and the mind of a killer.
