Topic: "New" Here
Howdy y'all, I've been coming to this site for about 2 years now, but decided to register on a whim.
I've been playing guitar for 3 and a half years, been playing piano since I was 4 years old.
I'm in 2 bands, as the lead/rhythm guitarist and backup vocalist in a blues/rock band, and a lead guitarist in a heavy metal band.
My biggest musical influences are Slash (Guns N Roses), Jimi Hendrix, Travis Stever & Claudio Sanchez (Coheed and Cambria), and Dimebag Darrel (Pantera, Damageplan).
I'm big on writing music, not lyrics, music, I can't work with words for some reason. I write mainly in a blues/rock/metal style, and I am starting to write in the symphonic power metal style.
I listen to just about every style of music, but I am mainly into Symphonic Power Metal (Nightwish, Sonata Arctica), Blues/Rock (Jimi Hendrix, Chuck Berry), Heavy Metal (Guns N Roses, Motley Crue, Pantera), Folk Metal/Black Metal (Finntroll, Arch Enemy, Dethklok), and Progressive Rock (Coheed and Cambria, Styx, Rush, Yes).
As my username suggests, I am big into ancient myths, mainly Greek, Norse, and American Indian myths.
Anyways, just a little info about me, just wanted to say hey to everybody.
