Band advert (again)
I’m Matt, 21 year old student in Plymouth.
I’ve been searching for a band for a while, I play guitar and I’m looking to start a Doom/Stoner/Sludge band, but I need a drummer and a bass player first!
I’ve been playing guitar for 7 or 8 years, have been in bands before, and I’m deadly committed
I’ll admit though I’m also a bit of a gear snob and doom is very gear oriented, so I’m interested to see what you play
I’m available all the time, just get in touch!
Word to the wise, I’ll get some clips and photos of my gear up soon, and despite my interest in stoner music, I don’t really do drugs.
Influences
Black Sabbath, Sleep, High on Fire, The Melvins, Electric Wizard, Goatsnake, Mastodon, Baroness, Kylesa, Red Fang, Orange Goblin, Bongripper, Corrosion of Conformity, Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age, OM, Boris, Sunn O))), The Sword Trouble, St. Vitus, Candlemass, Witchfinder General etc - if you know most of these bands, you’ll know that I’m looking to make it low, loud, slow and heavy.
Especially influential albums are Master of Reality, Vol. 4, Dopesmoker, Holy Mountain and Dopethrone.
Gear
My man guitar is a Gibson Les Paul loaded with Warpigs tuned to C standard, and a Fender Stratocaster in E standard.
My amp is an Orange OTR120 head (super loud and awesome) through a Fender 4x12 loaded with Eminence Swamp Thangs, and I’m also using a Blackarts Toneworks Pharaoh and 1972 Colorsound wah, and sometimes a Rangemaster clone.
