Our band are looking for a bassist who will be committed and able to tour and record. We practice in Stafford every Monday night for 3 hours between 7.30pm and 10.30pm.
We have a recording booked with the UK's biggest heavy metal and rock producer. The studio time is booked for 10 days from 29th March - 7th April. We will also be touring for two weeks from 4th July with bigger bands from the U.S. as their support band.
We have lots of opportunities available and will give the right person a chance to join us. Please check the statement below and see of this is the right band for you.
Style: Our main inspiration for this band comes from Mastodon, Baroness, Frank Zappa, Captain Beef heart, Neurosis, Isis, Converge and Nails. We don't sound like the above mentioned bands but you can hear the inspiration in our music.
Musical ability: You have to be up for experimenting with pedals such as overdrive, delay, reverb, chorus, wah and phasers. Anything to add depth to your bass parts. We expect you to be able to write your own bass lines because we believe it allows your own creative take on the songs. Unfortunately songs we've recorded will have to remain relatively similar if not the same.
Dedication: Anyone that doesn't want this need not apply. The band is being pushed forwards and we are gaining a lot of interest. If you want to seriously commit to a band and be able to play gigs you wouldn't normally have been able to play then this is the gig for you. We've played with bands such as Hed PE, Death By Stereo, Armed For Apocalypse, Shadows into Light (ex Funeral for a Friend), Conjurer, Black Orchid Empire and Ballsdeep and have bigger shows in the headlights next year.
If you would like to submit a request for a try out then please email thosesnakes@gmail.com with your previous performance history, photos, bio and any music made in previous projects. If you don't have any of these, drop us a line anyway as we will be more than happy to speak to you.
Many thanks
