I don't know if this is the right place for a thread like this. So Moderators, lock, delete, or move at will :)

Quote Aika is a solo project hailing from England in the underground of the metal scene, specialising in progressive metal of a darker nature. Don't mistake it as Black Metal, mind you! The project ideas started in 2007. I started recording in 2009, which I have recieved praise for. I've yet to meet a person who doesn't enjoy my music, which is a huge compliment. Plans for the first demo, Winter Eternity were interrupted by the lack of a vocalist. In the future I plan to make this more than a solo project. In the meantime I released a demo called "Instrumentals" which consisted of 3 songs ranging from 6 to 12 minutes each. This is a free download and is available in the blogs. I am only 16, which is young to start a solo project such as this, but I don't think age should matter in music.

I am looking for a vocalist who can do clean epic vocals and scream-ish vocals, much like Agalloch (Listen to their album Ashes Against The Grain to give you an idea of what i'm looking for). If you can do this and live near the Nuneaton area in England, i'd be happy to hear from you via personal message on MySpace with a sample. Also a drummer.

The future for AikA is to rise to the top of the underground (Sounds like a paradox) and be known throughout the world amongst true metal fans who can appreciate my music.

I have an instrumental demo out, if anyone is interested. The download is free :)

I was expecting a Finnish band. If you didn't know, aika is Finnish for time.

Yes, I was very proud of that.
 
@ Keppa: My inspiration are mainly finnish bands such as Moonsorrow. Time represents the changing of the earth. The word in finnish to me had more meaning, hence called AikA.

Is there any way I can get my band on this website?
 
Or is my band at too much of an early stage?
