Looking for a male vocalist, dance-punk/post-punk

Hi, I'm a rock/dance-punk producer. Think Viagra Boys with Death From Above 1979-ish guitars.

I'm looking for a vocalist, preferably male. No need to be a good singer, just charismatic.

Remote collab from anywhere. I'm situated in Madrid.

If interested, please hit me up:

discord: hungrybird_s

email: [juliansfg@proton.me](mailto:juliansfg@proton.me)

These are some song demos:

Everything is disputable, nothing is final.

We can try a collab, but I'm really looking to release a full LP.

Looking for Metal Musicians to Start an Original Band — Antioch / Concord / East Bay, CA

What's up! I'm a guitarist in the East Bay looking for musicians who want to start an original metal band and eventually record music, play shows, and take things seriously.

The sound I'm going for: Groove metal mixed with technical death metal. Think Lamb of God, Bleed From Within, necrophagist, death. and technical, chaotic riffing, with an emphasis on memorable riffs, aggressive rhythms, tight grooves, and interesting songwriting. I want the music to feel heavy and human, not just be low-tuned chugs for the sake of it.

I'm currently writing toward a sound like lamb of god necrophagist and the band death and some prog stuff in there as well to make a unique riffing style, with room for technical death metal influences and more experimental ideas. I'm open to developing the sound together rather than trying to copy any one band.

I'm looking for:

  • A drummer
  • A bassist
  • A vocalist
  • Another guitarist .

You don't need to be a professional musician or have years of gigging experience. I care more about musical chemistry, creativity, commitment, and wanting to make something original.

I'm 18, and I'm open to playing with musicians older than me, too. Ideally, we'd meet up, exchange ideas, write some riffs, and see what kind of music we can create together.

Location: Antioch / Concord / greater East Bay, California.

If you're interested, comment or DM me with your instrument, influences, general experience, and any music you've recorded or played. Even if you don't have recordings yet, feel free to reach out.

Let's make something heavy. 🤘

Creating a Psych Rock Band

2 Upvotes

I wanna create a psychedelic rock band (kinda on the style of the doors, jefferson airplane) but I cant seem to find any concerts or events that I could meet someone who wants to start a band as well (I'm from Brazil). All of my friends who play instruments dont wanna play in a band. And I wanna start a band with young people (20-23 years), people my age, and to have fun playing instead of just treating it as a super serious job. Any hints?

German Metal Vocalist, wanting to create an online project.

1 Upvotes

Im looking forward to make or join a project that I could provide vocals for.
Been doing vocals and texts/themes for my own project until now.
I am able to record stuff with a solid mic and hope that everyone else could as well.
The subgenre, as long as screams fit, doesn’t matter to me as long as our songs feel right.

I want to spend time on the project but it should be treated like a hobby.

Any international instruments or vocals are welcome or dm me if you already have a project.

Looking to join a band as a 24 YOF singer/PA, USA

1 Upvotes

Hello all! I've been singing my entire life and have performed in multiple musicals and public events. I absolutely love singing and am a mezzo-soprano, but I'm comfortable exploring outside of that range as well. I truly enjoy all genres of music. I've always dreamed of producing songs and making music of my own, and I'm really interested in finding a band to sing and perform with! I'd love to connect with other musicians. I'm open to joining an existing band or starting something from scratch. If you're interested or know someone who might be, feel free to DM me or comment on this post! Thanks!

[Recherche musiciens Lille, FRANCE] Chanteuse de 20 ans cherche des musicien·nes pour monter un groupe à Lille 🎸🎤

1 Upvotes

Salut tout le monde !

Je suis une chanteuse amatrice de 20 ans basée à Lille et j’aimerais vraiment monter un groupe de musique avec des personnes motivées pour jouer ensemble, répéter, faire des reprises et, pourquoi pas, créer nos propres morceaux à terme ! Je peux bien sûr partager des vidéos ou des enregistrements de ma voix pour vous donner une idée de mon univers !

Je cherche idéalement des musicien·nes entre 18 et 30 ans, peu importe votre niveau tant que vous êtes motivé·es et que vous avez envie de vous investir dans un projet collectif.

Je serais ravie de rencontrer des guitaristes, bassistes, batteur·euses, pianistes/claviéristes ou d’autres chanteur·euses !
Pour le style musical, je suis assez ouverte (même si je puise plus mes inspirations dans la pop, la musique indie, alternative, etc) et j’aimerais qu’on puisse trouver notre identité ensemble. L’idée, c’est de créer un groupe avec une vraie alchimie, de partager nos influences et surtout de prendre plaisir à jouer ensemble. 🎶

Mon objectif serait de rencontrer des personnes avec qui répéter régulièrement, progresser, jouer éventuellement sur scène et voir jusqu’où le projet peut aller !

Si ça vous intéresse, même si vous n’avez encore jamais fait partie d’un groupe, n’hésitez pas à me répondre en commentaire ou à m’envoyer un MP en vous présentant un peu et en me parlant de vos influences musicales !

Au plaisir de rencontrer de futur·es partenaires musicaux à Lille ! 💗

Looking to start a band! :) (MCR INSPIRED + MORE?)

2 Upvotes

HII so I've always really wanted to be in a band. I want to make cool music, and being on the road with Buds sounds fun too.

Anyways, some things about me, just so ya know what kinda person I am, I think it's really important that we click: I'm 16, and FTM from WA, U.S.A. I'm planning on leaving when I'm 18, so where we're at doesn't really matter! If there's a will, there's a way.

My favorite artists/bands are Avenged Sevenfold, My Chemical Romance, Sopor Aeternus, HIM, Misfits, She Wants Revenge, and a lotttt more :)

I'm an ambivert; if we have the same personality, I lovee talking bro.. I'm a very energetic talker; if you are too heh.

I love to draw and use all media of art; if I don't succeed at being in a band, I'm becoming a tattoo artist. I like to make stories for albums and draw the characters; currently I'm making a story of 2 guys in the 70s escaping a mental institution because it sucks.

anyways thats somehting about me... here's other stuff.!

I could do vocals or rhythm/lead guitar; honestly, I'm open to any instruments, but I only have my mouth and a guitar :)

I want it to be inspired by My Chemical Romance and Avenged Sevenfold. I LOVE orchestra instruments in songs; I LOVE LOVE LOVE when the song sounds almost heavenly, AND WHEN THERE'S A WIND ORGAN LIKE AAA... If you catch my drift.

I'd say there aren't really heavy requirements; if you have an instrument or are getting one, you're set. You just gotta have the motivation to play, and you are set!!

No haters, I guess?

The same music taste?

Let's talk!!!!
