Alright people Schizoid pretty much summed it up for ya but like he said we have kind of a progressive metal sound but we're not like scream metal or anything like that we have songs that i've written yes i'm the song writer {hope it didn't sound like i was bragging somehow} anyways our songs are pretty mixed up in different ways we're hopefully going to record this summer, but so far we have about 7 songs here's a list of the songs in case you're wondering.
1.Free Ride-6-7 mins approximately
2.Rock n Roll- about 6 mins
3.Birth of Fire-20 minuter
4.El Ovidado-40 minuter
5.Bobby McKracken-possibly 10 mins
6.Miracle Man- in progress
There's one more but it's on my other computer that crashed so i'll put it up later.
And like schizoid said our influences are Rush,Tool,Dream Theater, The Who, Yes,Genesis, Jethro Tull, Porc tree etc.
And my influences in drumming are Keith "the loon" Moon, Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, Phil Collins, Allen White and Bill Bruford.
And my style of drum playing is pretty mixed I guess you could say, but I can do any beat you throw at me just give me a little time to get it down, I love playing solo's it's just fun because you can do whatever you want and with the drum set up i have there's alot to choose from.
Ok anyways back to my style of playing, I do some speed playing like double bass beats and fills with double bass in em, I also can mix up fills and put them anywhere I want to in my beats and i'm very good at changing from beat to beat and/or doing any fill and going right back into the beat without screwing it up.
Our new bass player is Albert he's a cool asian who is now getting into music because of me and schizoid and he wanted to pick up on bass and he's progressing very well.
And the lead guitarist Issac is a good guitarist he just can't solo like schizoid so we've Issac lead and schizoid rhythm/soloist.
