I want to get together with other musicians (I play guitar) and start writing. I've been playing for 18 years and use Reaper/EZD3/Nuclear Bass to demo ideas but I've been wanting to bounce ideas off of other like-minded people. I'll list some records/bands that have had major impact on me...
This is way better than I was expecting, just seems weird coming a couple days after tribute release. The mix also seems off to me, but just might be youtube
