I was interested to see if anyone would like to take part in the creation of a new EPIC metal/rock band. Probably quite a bit of prog rock in the equation too in order to create a rather savatage/rhapsody/dream theater style band. I would be intrested in finding one or two guitarists capable of pulling off and writing memorable EPIC riffs and lines. A beast of a drummer with ability to play some other percussion instruments aswell. A keyboard or piano player would be great. Preferably with classical influence in their playing and finally a very very capable singer with a large vocal range. We are gonna be needing some real high and sustained notes.

thanks

Wow yeh, I'd be up for that too, epic's my middle name. I've actually a lot of stuff epic stuff written with keyboards in the mix too, just stuff to give the listener goosebumps.

I play guitar too btw. I love "rhapsody/dream theater", Blind Guardian have some especialy good epic power metal. I've always wanted to metal up some cool epics like Ecstacy of Gold and Requiem for a Dream

disclaimer: middle name isn't technically epic

Sounds like it's gonna be cool as fuck... we've got a slightly more progressive element creeping in on our newer material... if Len and Mac and Dan weren't already in a slightly progressive and epic metal band then I'd tell you to get them!

We should play together when you get it together

beast! can't wait to get this up and going, if you know others intersted just give me an e-mail. Try get it set up as quick as possible so we can have a bit of a jam. Liking the sound of the epic keyboard stuff

So scott wants a peice of guitar action, ross you want to play guitar, keyboards or both??


I had never actually heard any blind guardian. They're amazing!!! we definately need to do stuff like that! they remind me quite a bit like savatage.

I can play the keyboard (if i brush up) but I prefer guitar...and I dont have a keyboard, if theres no-one else I could do both for recording purposes I guess, or try and play both at the same time :S

Glad you like Blind Guardian, they kick a little TOO much ass.

This all sounds awesome ...!

Sounds sweet. Only trouble is DT is the only band mentioned I listen to (just now) and I can't play any of it

[Dayeth]

*bump*

this was going well, whats the situation with it now?

[cleartonebass]

Yeah man its still goin to happen. just busy as hell at the moment. was thinkin we should get some covers goin to start off with so we can have a jam and see how it works out before writing stuff. what ye all think?
not sure what stuff tho... yet! any ideas?

[Dayeth]

Cool!

A Blind Guardian cover or two would kick arse. Perhaps a metal/heavy version of an epic classical piece. Dream Theater too....perhaps Pull Me Under, Peruvian Skies or something off Scenes From A Memory Part 2. Either way, something EPIC
