Emma-O
"The female Johnny Ramone"
Guitarist for all-girl hardcore punk band Pantychrist (www.pantychrist.net). I also do my own music, which can be completely different from what I play with the band. I have a punk rock background but my style is unique, with influences ranging from psychedelic to metal to emo and all points in between.
I have a lot of incomplete songs from over the years that I would eventually like to finish. What I need most to finish these songs is a singer and drummer. I'll be posting a lot of these tracks (most of which are rehearsal recordings) in the hopes of finding collaborators to get all this stuff done.
