ABOUT

Hi all, I'm looking to form or join a band and finding an original sound somewhere in the area of my listed influences. I have no other prior experience but have wanted to do this for some time now. Something angular/noisy, a blend of experimental rock, noise rock, avant-garde, art-rock, post-punk, post-rock, indie/alternative type deal. Maybe art-post-rock? I'll play rhythm or lead guitar and can sing back-up vocals and dabble in keys/synth. If this sounds at all like you, please contact me: joellaughlin @ the_one_google_owns (dot) com . SoundCloud will play a WIP, followed by another song, then recorded phone track ideas from years ago for now. Recordings are rough.
