1) Name: Avenger of Blood
Instrument: Drums
Style/Genre: Thrash

2) Name: Tyrant Attack

The other 2 are quite well known and I won't say who they are just yet but I am not IN the other 2 bands, just filling in/session musician for them.

And I do believe you spent some time with Vengeance Rising, Tortured Conscience, and Biogenesis in your past life.

No, but I am trying to do a project with a friend of mine who is a killer guitarist. More info to come soon.

We just need a drummer, but i'm forming a hard rock band called Wyvern right now. I'm lead guitar/deep vocals

Haha.

And they still don't understand why I don't like it.

I don't play in a band, but I am very related with bands.
I am journalist specialized in metal, I write cd reviews, and interview bands and cover shows (when time permit).
Due metal is a big word and includes many styles, I prefer write about melodic hard rock, hair metal, glam, AOR and meoldic metal. But everytime I get things more extreme, and I have to review them as well.
I did almost everything related in music business but I never played in a band, I tryied once in a banda kind of RATM.
By the way, if you have a cd and you want to me review it, I will give you my info.
I don't like mix too much my profesion with my hobbie as collector, but they are related sometimes.
Rock on!

I believe Rat Skates and DD Verni of Overkill still own the copyright on that name, so you'd have to pay them some royalty money. "The Lubricunts" was their high school punk band pre-Overkill.

I play Lead Guitar in a Thrash metal band called Blood for Blood.
Soon to be recording our debut EP ...

I dont play right now, but I'm soundcrew for a local band called Distinction that play alt metal (icky), but what ever, it lets me practice my sound prowess. I'd love to start a thrash band or old school death project. Its hard finding like minded musicians in my town though.

Stop by your local music store and ask if they have a notebook that they keep track of local musicians who are looking to start bands. If they don't encourage them to start one. It's a great way to get people with similar tastes and interests together, and it benefits the music store because people in bands will spend more on gear.

If they have no interest in that idea, just make up a flyer that has your basic information and post it around town. Include your name and phone mumber, but also your skill level and experience, influences and genre that you are interested in and see who might bite on that. Passing out or posting those flyers at that other bands gigs could yeild results.

Thanks for the tip, thats a good idea. I play bass and my friend plays lead. We could probably rope in some other people with what you said.

Position: Bass and vocals
Name: ARV ( Armed Response Vehicle)
Genre: Crossover thrash

Guitar/Lead Singer for a secular thrash metal band called Rathoria

Bassist for Yellow Death Machine. Admit it, you've never heard a better band name.

no I have, how about diamond plate?

I'm a 37yr-old pro drummer. I've been playing since 7, pro since 16.
I've been in many bands either as a full-timer or as a sub. My main band att is Frustated, Inc. and we do covers from rock to metal, though more h/r/metal than straight rock. I'm currently also getting another h/r/metal cover band together playing everything from Manowar, Helloween, Maiden, to Poison. Mainly 80's and 90's with maybe a newer song thrown in. This band's name is Sin Trigger.
