Durango95 Durango95
Durango95 - Named after the car in "A Clockwork Orange". We split the rhythm guitar between us. John plays the first solo and fills. Dave does the melody and second solo.
House of the Rising Damp House of the Rising Damp
House of the Rising Damp - Written as a tribute to Leonard Rossiter (hence the TV theme in the middle). The rhythm is split between us. Dave does the 2nd solo, John plays the intro and the 3rd solo.
11/8 Thing 11/8 Thing
11/8 Thing - An old idea of John's from a few years ago that we decided to do something with. The main repeating riff is in 11/8 and the rest is 6/8 and 4/4. John plays the rhythm parts and the first solo, Dave does the second solo.
Nexus Nexus
Nexus - We thought we'd better do something so we stuck a few old ideas together and came up with this. Dave plays the guitar on the intro/outro and other rhythm parts, also the melody and solo. John multi tracks himself at the end.
Assumptions Assumptions
Assumptions - The rhythm is split between us. John plays the 1st solo and came up with the bass part, Dave plays the 2nd solo and there's a trade off during the fade.

We have been attempting to write and play music together since the mid '80s. We still try, we still suck!Band/artist history
See introduction. We met at college and discovered we both liked making noise on the guitar. Every now and again we would save up to rent a Tascam 4-track cassette Portastudio. We'd throw a few riffs together, play some solos and call them songs. We still compose like this.Have you performed in front of an audience?We have done but never together on the same stage. Possibly for the best!
Your musical influences
Shawn Lane, Bumblefoot, Chris Godin, Steve Vai, Steve Morse, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Greg Howe, Scott Henderson, Allan Holdsworth, Frank Zappa, etc, etc. Sadly, we don't sound like any of our influences.What equipment do you use?
The nearest.Anything else?
In 1991 we recorded a track for a nationally released album, while we were recording the track, the first gulf war started. I don't think we can be blamed for that.Contact
