OK..this is my last attempt. If there are ANY musicians on the island who are not sheep, who are not scared to play anything technical, that ISNT deathmetal, That appreciate JAZZ, screaming, singing, who want to actually go somewhere with your talent. THEN CONTACT ME. The islands music scene is terribly bland, WE CAN CHANGE THAT. multiple timing changes?testing of physical limits? check out my influences, if we're compatible, then give a shout. please dont make me move to the states... - Mon, 21 Mar 2011 2:28pm

dude, if you're counting on livevictoria for your last attempt, i can only imagine you've probably only tried this site for all your other attempts too. have you ever been to an all ages show? the scene is small here, but there are a ton of young musicians who are into the same shit you are. if you just sit on your ass waiting for them to come to you, you'll never find them. fall in archaea, we are leaving wounds, apparatus theory, bombs over rome, unicron, there are lots of progressive bands who play fucked up music here that aren't "death metal." i think i've only ever seen maybe two death metal bands in this city anyways (reaver and scimitar). you've gotta hit up the all ages scene man. i'm your age, i know it can be brutal sometimes being surrounded by teenagers, but 1) those are the people who are most likely going to be into the kind of music you wanna make because the BAR scene here sucks, and 2) most of the musicians you're going to find in this city who not just want to but are actually capable of laying down the kind of shit you wanna do are probably going to be just out of highschool. you don't have to move to the states, but i think you do need to put a little more effort into starting a band if you're really that "serious" as you've mentioned like a billion times. it took me a couple of years to put together the band i wanted to play in, but it happened. we're called covalent. we may not have "tests of physical limits" but i listen to a lot of the influences you have listed and i know there are a lot of kids in this town who do too. if you're seriously serious, you've gotta get off the computer and into the all agers. trust me, they're out there. - Tue, 22 Mar 2011 12:07pm Edited: Tue, 22 Mar 2011 12:07pm

I love Wolves.
I've had two wolfdawgs, and I can tell you for a fact, they like stoner rock the best. Once I was playing Helmet's "Betty", and my 130pd wolfdawg got so excited he slammed up against the back of the couch and smashed out my front window.
Good thing for Schwamm Glass repair at 11:00pm. - Tue, 22 Mar 2011 11:07pm

To answer the most prominent posts. Crux: Yes. Trevor Corey: a little off topic but FUCK YEAH wolfdawgs! Mr Hell: my thoughts exactly. Kyle: i meant good bands, if you know any teenagers who could either A: play drums like thomas pridgen or chris pennie B: realise no band from the island going to make it, then please put me in contact and we could go to LA to start something serious. ive done my tours of the island scene since highschool, there hasnt been anything original or promising since Open,Parachute! and look how that ended. Cedric Zavala said something about El Paso that totally applies to the island "if you want to make it and you live in El Paso, you have to leave El Paso" cept this is the island but you get my drift. sorry to diss your scene, but its balls. Gutsfuck: Love the name, and i will paste that shit. thanks everyone. - Tue, 29 Mar 2011 1:03pm

No one ever made it off this rock with rock.Not true ....I think if you think this place is that lame then you are looking in the wrong places.Maybe you should go south....or whatever,the seen here will still be fine without you.I have been here all my life and there is a big music seen here,if you can't see it then it's best you move on.I like most the stuff you have mentioned and think you are setting your heights to high . It just seems you are acting like a rock god before you ever even did anything.Some people can make this work for them,but most just come across as potencias jerks .Sorry but it's the truth. - Wed, 30 Mar 2011 12:24pm
