New site? Maybe some day.

Tim (vocals) and I (Blue, guitar) are looking to start a new project now that Porphyria is currently inactive. We are currently searching for competent drummers and bassists to rock with us.
Influences: Suffocation, Inveracity, Deeds of Flesh, Inherit Disease, Malignancy, Goratory, Psycroptic, Carcass, Spawn of Possession, Cannibal Corpse, Devourment, etc etc etc...
Drummers:
-Must be over 21
-Must be proficient in extreme metal styles (i.e. BLAST really well/groove also mandatory)
-Must be able to hit hard (Don't care if you use triggers, you'd better be able to pull it off without)
-Must have professional equipment (your Pearl Export you've had for 10 years isn't going to cut it)
-Must have reliable transportation
-Be able to practice once a week in the Manchester NH/Boston area, possibly more
-Must have the willingness to record/play shows (possibly tour in the future)
-Must not be racist, sexist, bigot or a general asshole
Bassists:
-Must be over 21
-Must be proficient in bass (fingerstyle/slap technique a plus, but were down with tha sick pickers too)
- We tune to B, so 5 string bass is pretty much essential
-Must have professional equipment (No, your 150 watt bass combo isn't going to work)
-Must have reliable transportation
-Be able to practice once a week in the Manchester NH/Boston area, possibly more
-Must have the willingness to record/play shows (possibly tour in the future)
-Must not be racist, sexist, bigot or a general asshole
If you meet these extremely precise requirements, you may possibly be ready to lay down thick slabs of brutality. Get in contact by replying to this, or emailing rindgecore@yahoo.com. |

finger style bass only? who cares? |
|
i do? why, do you play with a pick and can handle this no problem? If so, try out. |
|
Damn, if only I had a better bass rig. Rats! |
|
pfft Blue you play bass with a pick brosef. Someone who knows tone like you should know it doesn't make a difference, depending on the bassist. If someone's good with whatever they use, can shred, and it sounds good, it doesn't freakin matter. |
|
Playing finger style is a lot better IMO, different timbre and attack on the strings. A lot of pick bassists that I see end up being hacks and can't finger tap, play arpeggios or do shit |

i understand where youre coming from on that. and im sure if whoever this magical person is who rules at bass with a pick, theyd probably get in contact regardless.
i edited it for you, happy? |

Just like size, it matters.
|

Mmk, whatevs boss. I don't really care; real bass players don't care. If you can play you can play, don't matter how. I only bothered to comment because they're might be some awesome bassists out there turned away by the fingers-only thing. I would say like "Fingerstyle preferred, but if you play with a pick and you're nasty, come try out too."
|
|
that was in response to Arist
and yes Blue I'm happy, wuv wu |

exactly, a ton of picking bassists out there are just douches that are playing 'a bigger guitar.' im looking for a bassist, someone who knows how to be a rhythm player. i play pick bass in RGUT because its a fast grind band with distorted bass and the definition doesnt matter at all. i also play fingerstyle bass in situations where is is called for. for a technical death metal band? yeah, id probably want someone who doesn't play full on fast with a pick. but im open to ideas. |

Not to jack the thread, but it kindof does matter.
I'm not belittling pick bassists, but a band has the right to say they would rather have a slap or finger style bassist over a pick bassist.
I don't care how good someone is at pick bass, they wouldn't fit in in a band like goratory, for example.
Saying playing style doesn't matter is nuts. Steve Vai can shred, but I wouldn't want him in Nile. |
|
Yeah let's not keep this argument going in this thread. It's about Blue's new band, not this age old argument. I've said my piece. And yes, a pick bassist would be fine for most of Goratory's riffs, he would just need to tap and slap where appropriate. |
|
I'm done. Good luck with the band Tim and Blue. |
|
whoever the hell you are, thank you for being such an amazing person. |

I'm none of those things except for racist, sexist, and an asshole. Do I count?
|
|
Shweeet.
I would try out, I'm a young'n though. And Boston isn't far for me, but manchester is quite a ways away. |
|
id bet wed more than likely practicing in manchvegas, considering tim has a basement and i dont. |
|
Sending a long-winded email with hamster porn attachments. |
|
I'm all of those except 21 (be 20 in November). No exceptions on that matter? |
|
what are the rest of the Porphyria boys up too? |

dude, I know you're after our drummer, truth of the matter is he is joining some funk band and come hell or high water, I'll be the first to snatch Dane back before anyone can get their grubby lil' paws on them when he comes back to the cooler side of the musical spectrum. ha ha.
|
|
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah please call them shit hooks not paws |
|
You guys are still looking for a drummer, what the fuck!? I figure doods would be kickin down your doors given the nature of your past project. Hell if I played rums I'b be all over that shit. |
|
nah there really is nobody around.im on my own lookin for a band now |
|
guitar..if i played bass you would never had to post |
|
ill jam with you guys... i aint doin shit right now and its killing me. |
|

Seems like someone is real defensive about being a pick-bass player. If you're a good bass player you could play it in any way. I played with a pick in AxRx, but that's not really going to fly in a tech-death band. It's about knowing what's appropriate. |
|
Gillis isnt really doing anything right now, is his style fitting? |
|
nevermind, he doesnt fit most of your criteria
"-Must be over 21 yes
-Must be proficient in extreme metal styles (i.e. BLAST really well/groove also mandatory) yes
-Must be able to hit hard (Don't care if you use triggers, you'd better be able to pull it off without) yes-Must have professional equipment (your Pearl Export you've had for 10 years isn't going to cut it) no
-Must have reliable transportation no-Be able to practice once a week in the Manchester NH/Boston area, possibly more no
-Must have the willingness to record/play shows (possibly tour in the future) yes-Must not be racist, sexist, bigot or a general asshole oh hell no"

funk owns death metal in a nanosecond, good for him |
|
i can say yes to all that except i do have an export but it sounds good to me. |
|
I don't think there's anything wrong with having a cheap drum kit if you know how to properly tune it. Still using cheapo cymbals are what will make you sound like shit. |
|
yea i have nice cymbals... welll i need a new china its totally fucked. but otherwise.... |
|
i think this band is looking for someone who can do a mean stick twirl |
|
Ah, well that I cannot do. |
|
i can pass a stick through my digestive system in 4 hours. that can always be timed for a set. |
|
and that can always be a plus |
|
I sent a long msg but I suspect he doesn't like my 4-string. I'm going to go into the bathroom and cut myself. |
|
and then eat a drumstick just for the pain |
|
sxealex is a rediculously nasty drummer. A semi-porphyria/nickTTOS-hybrid band would be retardedly excellent. |
|
doesnt the bassist from Malignancy use a pick? he's wicked nasty. while i myself am a finger-style elitist, i totally dont see a problem if the guy is really really good. |
|
I think the whole pick vs. fingers bullshit is 70 percent of pick bassists often appear to be a guitarist who prefered less strings.
I don't know for sure, I'm a fingerer when it comes to fingering my bass. Never used a pick, I can't even hold one right, that's how fucking leet I am. |
|

don't have the time for another project |
|
drummer found! we just need a bassist people! |
|
this project will be a pansy division influenced fusion band where blue confornts his love of epic m00bs and dick. |
|
you guys looking to get a second guitarist as well? |
|
the second guitarist spot has already been filled. |
|
If I had the time I'd pick my bass back up for this. People need to sponsor my life so I can play in bands full time. |
