London Band Seeks Drummer
Hello.
We're a five piece experimental/rock/alternative/type band looking for a drummer.
We're looking for someone committed and passionate who is open minded and up for trying something new. Someone who is free to rehearse 2 or 3 times a week. Someone who is hungry to get out there and play lots and lots of gigs. Someone who just wants to get things DONE.
Will need to be ok playing simple stuff - but also be able to lots of complicated stuff if/when it's required (we're quite partial to different time signatures: just playing 4/4 gets a little boring after a while). We're more song-based than doing stuff to show off (so no show-boaters please). Also: need to be good at communicating and discussing ideas and up for trying lots of different stuff out. We don't want someone to just play what they're told: music is more fun when everyone is bringing stuff to the table. We don't have time for anyone just starting out - if you're not confident and experienced then you're probably not what we want (sorry). Also: if you're already in other stuff /prior commitments and that: then it's not going to work out.
We have several songs in various states of completion. We have guitars. Keyboards. Singing. Pads. And demos that we're happy to send.
Oh: and: if you send a reply that's only one line long then you're probably not the type of person we're looking for (sorry).
You want a list a bands? Ok then (an incomplete list): Radiohead. 65daysofstatic. Mogwai. Daft Punk. Squarepusher. Arctic Monkeys. Six By Seven. Murcof. Parts & Labor. Mclusky. Nebulo. Efterklang. Nick Drake. Thee More Shallows. Godspeed You Black Emperor. Ben Frost. Sleigh Bells. Braids. Boards of Canada. Britney Spears. NIN. TV on the Radio. Royal Bangs. Ryoji Ikeda. etc etc. etc.
If you're interested - then send us a message with some details about who you are/your experience/what you're looking for/what music you like/what music you want to make/that sort of thing.
That is all.
