Welcome Drummers!! This is a site that we came up with so that drummers of all kinds can post their best video and get to know each other; as well as share ideas, techniques, and accomplishments. Please feel free to brag!! You guys rock and you deserve it!!
Other than contacting each other directly, you can post comments to each other for all to see. :) Also, if you'd like to send us a pic to upload to the pics section, we'll do that and tag it with your url to your ms site.
So here is how it works...
#1. Send me the html for one video or slide show in a comment, so that I can copy and past it onto the main page. (We are not going to allow html in the comments in order to save space for the videos) The email will work for a direct link for me to copy from youtube or myspace videos. If you copy the html code directly into email...it tends not to work.
#2. Also include your name, your bands name, and the url for your site and/or your band site.
#3. The genres you would like for me to post your music as.
#4. How many years you have been playing.
#5. The styles you have studied.
#6. Your location.
Bands or anyone who has to do with drums are welcome to join!! We are open to any cool suggestions you may have!!
KEEP BEATING!!
P.S. Don't forget to check out the PICS SECTION. And drummers, send me your pics to post and tag!!!

Gleipnir: Right now we are looking for a drummer who can not only play our songs we have now, but also a drummer who has the ability to make up new material. Each song we write is in the general theme of Death metal. But each song is different also. The diverse mix of musical tastes in our band, makes each song a bit different, requiring different styles of drumming. Some examples of our music are these bands combined.

Opeth (The progressive part of our music) Suffocation( The technical side/"Brutal") Amon Amarth (Our Melodic side) Cryptopsy (our brutal side)

Those are our main influences. The drummer we need for now is for live shows. And if the chemistry is there, we would want a permenant member. Everyone in our band is dedicated and willing to sacrifice to take it places. We have many venues to play, so getting live shows is of no problem. The only problem is...dun dun dun..no drummer.
