http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=795734&content=music - - some stuff I recorded at the end of the summer in 07... (pre-Warmoth - -sorry guys hehehe 
)
I was a metal head as a kid but kind of lost interested in that. I still like a heavy sound but but get bored playing heavy riffs. When I'm just noodling I guess I play more blues-y, since it's easy to do something that sounds good without a backing track (or thinking too much. ). Especially now with my new LP that seems to only want me to play heavy blues-y or classic rock type stuff. I'm not really good enough to be a "shredder" but I guess since I don't have a band, when I go to record it's guitar based (not vocal based) so I get into doing harmonies and trying to do some flashy/cheesy solos with hopefully a little melody happening in there. I like experimenting with modes also to get different flavors happening. BTW, all those recordings were done in like 1 or 2 days very quickly just to get them done fast. I was doing an experiment where I tired to record something every couple of days. I did it for a few months to see if I could be creative, because I never really have been. So I would just make these tracks as quickly as possible and move on to the next idea. I'm proud of a lot of it, but I don't think it's the best I can do. I hope to start doing more recordings in the future and I plan to actually take some time doing it.

No particular type of music, but I'll try anything that isn't watered-down blooze with 12 minute guitar solos. I will say that my guitar "style" was once described as "sounds like Keith Richard's Dyslexic Bastard Son". I still don't know if I was being complimented or insulted.

I listened to the first three. I like it. Reminds me of a Satch meets Vai sort of vibe. Hot licks!

Mostly rock stuff I guess - Rush, Radiohead, Lizzy, Sabbath, Ozzy, Satch, that kind of stuff.

Where is the Hallowen song? :icon_scratch:
I'm almost going to work, so listened only a part of the 1st song, quite like it! :glasses9:
EDIT: After some time without playing I'm taking classes and getting back... probably will be on the stage for the 1st time on august... I used to be metal head, but I'm tired of... Now I believe I'll go to a rock, blues and perhaps pop stuff

Wellllllllllllllllllllllllllll, I like to listen to many, many, many, kinds of music, and I think that it all filters into what I like to play. My old band was pretty intense, many would call it hardcore, there was a lot of screaming and the guitars would always be ear-bleedingly loud, but I like to think there were some hooks in there. That band was very much about the live show, with a singer who would literally climb the walls and ride me and the bass player around. My current band is a smidge less on the edge of chaos, but we still count The Stooges, the MC5, Blue Cheer, and of course Alice Cooper as pretty huge influences. When I am at home practicing I try to play everything under the sun, it makes me a better player. If I pick up an acoustic you can be sure that I will be finger picking some rural blues.
Started out playing metal back in the day....was in an a couple of alternative bands, a classic rock band w/horns, a couple of acoustic duos, played in countless open blues jams, and am now in a rap/funk/hip-hop/alternative band. And I'm currently taking flamenco lessons. Guess you could say I play stuff all over the board. :icon_smile:
