09-22-11 – Seattle, WA>Portland, OR – We are currently a 3-piece band with nearly a full album of material written already. Some powerful, passionate vocals are the main thing we’re missing. We are looking to add another guitarist eventually as well. I don’t think we’re set on a specific style of singing, but we want to have little, if any, screaming or growling despite how heavy the music is at times. Nothing too operatic either. Ideally we’d like a vocalist with previous band experience who has performed a fair amount and recorded albums. We have some lyrics written but it would be nice if you could also craft meaningful, poetic lyrics of your own as well.

We are all in our late 20s, have lots of experience writing, performing and recording with multiple bands and are very proficient at our instruments. Currently we practice twice a week on the east side (Kirkland or Bellevue). Our influences range from fairly mainstream acts like Muse and Incubus to more obscure and progressive bands like Meshuggah, Protest the Hero, Animals as Leaders, and Opeth. It’s hard to avoid at least a little grunge influence as well when you grow up in Seattle in the 90s. Our goal is just to create heavy, energetic music that is enjoyable and challenging to play, while also sticking to a short, pop-oriented format full of hooks that the non-elitist listener can still enjoy. — Submit Yourself To This Role Now: 1

09-20-11 – Seattle, WA>Portland, OR – We are currently a 3-piece band with nearly a full album of material written already. We’re seeking a 2nd guitar player as well as a vocalist. Hopefully we can find a great singer who primarily sings clean, with maybe very sparse screams. We are all in our late 20s, have lots of experience writing, performing and recording with multiple bands and are very proficient at our instruments.

It would be ideal to find a guitarist who is equally comfortable playing rhythm and leads, and who can bring a well structured song to the table as well as add accompanying parts to songs that others write. Someone with plenty of live and studio experience would also be a big plus. Most importantly, you need to have the chops and musical style to fit with what we have going so far. It would be really helpful if you have a good grasp on music theory so we can communicate using musical terms. If I say the riff is in C# minor, or that the progression goes to an A major 7 chord, you should understand what that means. Professional equipment, transportation and money to contribute to practice space fees are also required. Most of our songs are played on a 6-string detuned to either Eb or drop Db, but I’ve also been writing on my 7-string lately. It’s ok if you don’t have one right now. Basically you need all the usual things that any musician who has his shit together has, plus the seemingly magical chemistry that can only be discovered when we actually jam together. Have a listen to the demo tracks in the link below, and if you’d like to set up an audition, let us know!
