We’re Deterialist - a London-based Metalcore band looking for a shredding rhythm guitarist to complete our lineup.
Our previous guitarist has recently stepped away due to life commitments (all on good terms), so we’re looking for the right person to step in and push things forward with us.
We’re an active, gigging band known for high-energy live shows, with airplay on BBC Radio 1.
Our debut EP “Erasure” is out now - linked here: https://open.spotify.com/album/3CGZWREGIIjPWroITWFLWw?si=fdKPfFwOSBiN6E4fO1oc7Q??
Influences are bands in the realm of: Architects - Knocked Loose - Graphic Nature - Counterparts - Loathe - Thornhill - Norma Jean - Varials - Thrown - Deftones - Sikth - Veinfm
What we’re looking for:
* Strong technical ability (tight live + studio playing)
* Recent live gigging experience preferred
* Availability for rehearsals in Shepherds Bush (roughly every 2 weeks)
* Availability for gigs (~1 per month)
* Experience writing demos (Guitar Pro or similar) preferred
* Experience recording and writing in a DAW is a plus
* Comfortable contributing financially when needed (rehearsals, recording, gear, etc.). We aim to keep things cost-effective, while still investing where it make a difference.
* Open to getting involved beyond playing (e.g. content, social media, etc.) is a plus
Gear / setup:
We run MIDI-controlled guitar setups via laptop, so setups an amp modeller is preferred - or willingness to move in that direction.
We’re all aged late 20s to mid-30s, all working full-time, and take the band seriously alongside that - so reliability and commitment matter. (Open to any age range, but ideally within a similar bracket.)
If you’re interested, get in touch with links to any demos, videos, or recordings!
