I've been committed to playing guitar fir the past 10 years, gathering experience in playing in bands in both the lead and rhythm guitar positions. I have also transfered the same skills across to bass.
Looking for people who have both the talent and committment to write and perform music.
I come mainly from a death metal/alternative background, but over the years I have taken influence from blues, jazz, funk, pop-punk, and soul genres.

Influences
I have a lot of love for the prog scene with bands like Opeth, Tool, Dream Theatre etc., but my tastes aren't limited to one genre.
Lately I have been playing a lot of technical death metal (Psycroptic, Dawn of Demise etc) but also various metalcore songs as well (Bleed From Within, Polaris, Beartooth, and Of Mice & Men to name a few).
As long as it's in the metal genre, I can learn to play it and enjoy performing it live. As mentioned above, I also play a lot of hard rock (Nothing More, Extreme, etc.), Indie (Royal Blood, Peach Pit, etc.), Soul (Shaun Munday, Randy Crawford, etc.), Classic rock (Skid Row, White Lion, etc.), groove metal (Lamb of God, Pantera, etc.) And progressive fusion projects (Jelly Jam, Liquid Tension Experiment, etc.)
I take a lot of influence from guitarists like Mateus Asato, Mark Morton, Synyster Gates, Mikael Akerfeldt, Nuno Bettencourt, Chuck Schuldiner, Joe Haley, Niklass Karlsson, Jack Simmons, Ty Tabor, Matt Heafy, B.B. King, and Tony Maue (to name a few)
