is any one in a band if so whats the name and whats your part and what type of music do you play?
I'm the unofficial 6th member of Tokyo Showdown. As in, I make their graphics and webpage and such and such.
It's like... rock of some kind.

im the lead singer in the rock band EMMICK we came in 4th at our schools talent show we would of been 1st but we were to loud for the judges lol
My brother plays bass in a band he's in called "No Tiger No"
*outch* we redid ~smells like teen spirit~ at first but now we're gonna write our own songs and music
I'm the lead guitarist of twilight,
other then that I do the backing vocals together with teh rythm guitarist and our bassist.
and we play anything we like rock punk metal, as long as it sounds cool.
I used to live with a drummer.
She (yes, she, her name is Frankie), is in a band called The Bobby McGee's, who play a folk-punk style (dubbed 'tweecore' by the New Musical Express, which they have appeared in) with ukeleles, double bass, and random instruments such as mouth organs and Jew's harps. Most of their songs are light-hearted ditties about relationships, with a fair amount of swearing thrown in.
If that wasn't enough, they dress up like clowns! :D
EDIT: Here's a picture...

I have 108 finished parodies, but I don't have a band to play the music. I really need a band if I'm going to make quality parodies.
I'm the lead singer in a band called The Atomic Blues. We paly alternative music. Look us up on Myspace is you want. Some of our original material is uploaded there if you want to listen. Not really happy with how the vocals sound though had to record them after only hearing the songs once since the bassist & lead guitarist wrote them. Our next few songs wont sound as rushed.

Thrash/punk. Only got one song recorded, but loads of live videos down the page. I'm the lead guitarist. Not a particularly serious band, but some nice hard rock.
LETS MAKE A POST ROCK BAND! I'm LOOKING AT YOU CZ+GOOEY!
I shout/scream/make demonic noises in a band called 'Blood Hand' I am also a drummer in a Metal band called 'The Virgin Blood Of Christ'. Im alot better at drumming than singing, lol.
But when im not playing in those bands my regular sorce of income is drum teaching.
the last song i wrote has original lyrics but the music itsself if breaking the habit by linkin parkhers the first verse
he was born a distent soul.
no vesssle to call his own.
he hid behind the iron mask.
he weld a sword of gold.
his heart cast----intoa mold.
in the pits of hell.
and nooooow heees burnnning down therrrre.
to night.
Im a bassist, been playin for about 3 years. Im not in a band right now, as I have a child on the way, and want to focus on my firefighting career. I mostly like to play metal, or alternative, but can also play bass to hip hop music.
A friend of mine from work I think wants me to join a band he's thinking about making, but I haven't really any talent in any section of a band. My screaming/growl and vocals aren't bad, but I haven't really had proper training. Or heard myself. haha.
Vocal training helps but its not essential in my opinion just as long as you sound good,stay in tune and keep in time with the music your fine.
Well the lead vocalist from Avenged Sevenfold didn't have any training, and he smurfed his throat right up, and can't scream/growl anymore.
I play guitar and am forced to sing in a punk/jazz band called Pisslicker, not gigging yet as we need someone who can at least sing a bit first. Also i play bouzouki and mandolin in a folk band called Rough and ready. Bit odd really as i am primarily a bass player and i dont play that in either band.
Screaming/Growling isn't actual singing. Its just screaming or growling. The guy from Avenged Sevenfold wrecked his voice from not doing voice warm up's. You dont need training to learn to warm up your voice. One piece of advice I would give anyone who wants to "learn" to sing. Join a choir. I did when I was in high school. I'm in an alternative rock band trust me no same in trying to become a better singer.
Jesse Leach from Killswitch Engage did the same thing too.:( He was such a good screamer/singer. (He did actually sing aswell as scream lol) Maybe that is what happened to Matt Heafy from Trivium aswell since he doesnt scream anymore.Quote:

Screaming as fun and all as it is, isnt worth the long term damage it causes to your vocals. Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters almost lost his voice & Chester Bennington of Linkin Park had a growth removed from his vocal chords caused by strain on his vocals caused by screaming which explains Linkin Park's recent change in musical style (even though that wasn't the only reason Nu-Metal did die.)
I'm a nerdcore hip hop star in my dreams.
i was in a crappy pop-punk band 4 years ago. i played lead guitar and sang. cause i'm cool like that. now i'm way too uncreative to write my own music.
Ha. So thats why Bert from The Used smokes. He does the screaming...Well, did the screaming.Quote:

I made one in university, but we only ever got together a few times and I moved up to Brisbane. We didn't have a name, but we had guitar, violin/keyboard, drums, bass, guitar/singer. Seriously fun, I wish we were still together.
It's my ambition to jam with the Polo Ponys, but they told me I wasn't extreme enough.
Yes, and notice that 'City of Evil' sucks horribly.Quote:
