SOUTHGATE IS DONE

About Me

the above songs were recording during southgates earlier years. we were all very young and still in the learning stages. we would have liked to record southgate closer to the time of breaking up but it was not possible. the above songs are in no way anything close to what southgate sounded like and its ashame thats all we have to show for it. 1998 - Nov 2006I was the former lead singer and drummer of the progressive thrash metal band southgate.We were located on vacouver island. a city called nanaimo which was once nothing more than a small town. ben hughes (lead guitar) and chris busche(lead vocals,drums) had started the band and went through countless bass players,vocalists,and rhythm guitar players. the main other members that should be mentioned are ryan ross,Jesse Nelson, devon osolit, and steve holtby(counterfit days scotty rivest) but in the end we all could not agree on the music , the shows, the money, the practice, and fell apart.chris busche
