Esqueleto (UK)
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I picked up on the guitar around about August '03, along with on-and-off playing keyboards/pianos god knows how long, having always had one. I started getting more and more into music, when I got a bass, October, 15th '03. I developed my skills over the space of a year, until when I started listening to amateur recordings from other bands, and I decided I wanted to do the same thing. However, I wasn't in a band. I could play various instruments, I had a drum machine, though... Ta-da, first real cover put together, a crappy death metal version of Hotel Yorba (White Stripes), about November '04. By now I have been writing crappy repetative 'songs' for awhile. I now start to steal techniques from other bands, such as anthrax and iced earth, and start putting together something good. I later start developing my own kind of style from whatever scale/chord plays. This brings us to about January '05. Lately I've been recording these things more properly, and I think it's getting better. Now for so long I've been writing lyricless songs, it comes to here, March '05. What happens next? It's just a matter of time. B)
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
It's not easily possible to play live with a one-man band, however I'm now doing gigs with No Idea and various other things.
