Neil Donoghue is an artist that packs alot of influence into 1 man.
From the dark soundscapes of The Residents to the furious riffing
of Edward Van Halen Neil can be found playing a steady jam with
a captivating glow.Neil was a rocker growing up..'Albums by punk
bands like The Misfits,English Dogs and DK were great..'they were
aggressive and I think all teens need a healthy outlet'..Although his
parents may not have thought so ..music was definately a healthy
outlet for Neil.'Punk kinda came after metal..maybe it was me loosening
up a bit but that also got me into Primus'..who would become Neil's
favourite band for many years.Other acts like 'Rollins Band' and
'Nomeansno' were coming into play 'Prong' and 'Nine Inch Nails' were
doing an origional thing..Neil took a trip down the techno path in the
nineties aswell..'I was from a rock background and I always loved the
to see the bands in action..actually at work onstage just as you would
see a rock band doin it'..This was really how Neil started to build his
studio which he is now proud to call 'The Wood' ..'There are some pics
of my studio up on My Space ..Its kinda like a home I got a Smithfield
Intel PC I built myself with the Waves Diamond..Also Fender US Strat..
Jazz Bass with Boss ME-50B..Nord 2..Roland V Drums..Marshall Stack
