Hello,
We're Militia. We're a thrash metal band with 4 current members but we are looking to replace the already existing drummer due to him being in another band. We need 100% dedication from each band member and unfortunately we weren't getting that.
We've already got a couple originals done and short clips of these are on our instagram page @militiabanduk
We're looking for someone who knows their stuff, has an acoustic kit for gigging and practice, can give us the 100% we need, isn't lazy and will learn the songs as soon as possible ready for practice and gigging and if you have a double bass pedal and know how to use it then that's a bonus!
We practice at Farm Factory Studios in Welwyn Garden City every weekend unless something urgent is preventing us. When we're not practising together all of us are practising individually and coming up with new song ideas, writing lyrics or gaining a bigger following on social media ready for gigging.
We are looking to gig asap (Hence the 100% dedication needed) and if you think you have or will have a good stage presence even behind the kit then please private message!
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE BAND:
We have a Bass player, Lead guitarist and a Vocalist/Lead guitarist and all of us have gear ready to gig with.
We all collectively take inspiration from bands like Megadeth, Metallica and Slayer but we all have our individual inspirations.
Our Vocalist/Lead guitarist takes inspiration from classical music and shred guitarists such as Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai, Randy Rhaods, Zakk Wylde. But he also takes inspiration from bands such as Mountain, Thin Lizzy and also the Death metal band called Death.
Our Bass player takes inspiration from people like Cliff Burton and Jason Newsted (Both formerly from Metallica). But he is also quite fond of Classical music.
Our Lead guitarist takes the majority of his inspiration from Metallica as a whole. Mixing Kirk Hammett's ability to shred and James' skill of melodic guitar.
The ages we're looking for are 15-17 preferably but 18-19 will be accepted so long as you can play brilliantly.
If you wanna see how the band sounds and look at some of our compositions then take a look at our Instagram page @Militiabanduk and you'll see some rough videos which will allow you to get an idea of what we're about!
If you're interested just either send a Direct message to @Alfred_gubby on Instagram or drop us an Email on Militiabanduk@gmail.com !
Thank you and we look forward to welcoming a new Drummer to the band pretty soon!
Militia
