I am a guitarist that is into neo-classical shred, progressive rock and classical music from the baroque period.
For my drumming i play mostly speed/death metal but enjoy other styles as long as it has awesome groove and very busy or complex druming.
I hope to combine the two styles and instruments as most guitar players can't let rip on drums so that may make my music come from two different spectrums.
I also play bass/keyboard but on a more passive level and that will serve as more of a backing to my music.Band/artist history
Started with the drums in 1996 (about then), then the others in about 2003.Have you performed in front of an audience?I used to play live. i was on the drums in a rock/metal band, we played lots of covers and our own stuff as well.we played for 3 hour sets and were paid at every gig.
That ended because not many people are into (can't play) my style of music in my area so i don't play in bands, i changed alot when a got into virtuoso guitar music.
