Riryoku
Hello! My name is Riryoku. I am a solo bassist and rhythm guitarist. This project is a super brutal death metal band, one to make all others cower in the dust...
...oh, alright! This project isn't very death metal at all...it's more of me playing random notes on my bass. Happy now? Believe me, I'd love to be some sort of extreme death metal outfit, with squeally guitars and downtuned palm muting and all that good shit, but see, I have such crappy equipment that to listen to it would be even more unbearable than it originally would've been...now, this would be great if I was some sort of uber-kvlt Nazi black metal band, with high vocals like the dude's balls were being squeezed out, and with the uber-kvlt blastbeats and the uber-kvlt shoddy production and all that, but I like my music to be slightly *coherent* and *dignified*, thank you.
Yeah. So, solo bass songs and improvisational bass lines. Good if you like funky stuff, I guess. Right now, my songwriting and improv skills are...like shit...but it'll improve, I promise you.Band/artist history
yeah, whatever. I ventured into my dad's office on a sick day and picked up his bass. Instant love. Other stuff happened. Now I'm here for your listening "pleasure".Have you performed in front of an audience?No, I don't really play live. However, for a flat fee of 20 dollars and a rate of 10 additional dollars per hour, I'll give you a performance so earth rumbling that it'll vacate your bowels. "Earth rumbling", not "good", mind you.
Your musical influences
Nile, Opeth, Dream Theater, Necrophagist, Darkness Remains, etc. Not that I sound like any of these wonderful artists. For artists more coherent to the type of music you're going to hear, you might want to check out Red Hot Chili Peppers, or other bands with awesome bass players.What equipment do you use?
-Squier MB-5 bass
-Abilene Stratocaster Copy (this is one of the reasons that I can't play metal...)
-Computer (this is my most valuable tool)Anything else?
Pants. For all my dedicated fans: I thank you:
-(if you want to be on this list, e-mail me, and I'll consider it...lol...I might even pay you! O_O)Admin
