I want to have a band...

[Forty]

...but Im not sure what kind of style.

For example, I really like rock/metal, but...
A. Im not sure if the guitarist can play thrash metal
B. I have never heard a girl bellow

Halp?

[Moss.]

Start with one and gradually shift your style over each album. Like Incubus, but more obvious.

[Forty]

sounds good, thanks

[:)]

I don't want to see you on myspace with dark black hair, makeup, back cloths that don't fit, and a big sign saying "we sound like every other fucking band"

[Forty]

I promise, I'll wear bright pink shirts, bublegum shoes, and scream like a deathmetal band(lol jk)
But I will not sound like every other band, I wanna be different.

[Malson]

There's a big difference between wanting to be different and actually being different. I don't think there's a band out there that doesn't want to be different.

[Dwarra?]

Panic At The Disco and their failed attempt at sounding like Fallout Boy (which is actually good because I hate fallout boy.)

[The.Muffin.King]

I comepletely forgot about them.

Actually, if you read their bio, they were more inspired by Blink 182 (FAVORITE BAND  ) and tried going for a sound like them but FAILED because no one can match Blink 182's fame... though they are on a hiatus.

[Malson]

Are you honestly implying that it's difficult to emulate Blink-182?

[ChaosSpartan28]

Not at all, Im just a fan. So, you know the typical behavior of fans towards their favorite whatever.

If you REALLY want to sound different. I like to experiment with instruments a lot, and use them in ways they aren't supposed to be used. I put a drum stick under my guitar strings to make the notes a higher pitch, then I hit the strings with chopsticks. It sounded erm..interesting. I even made a song with it.

Remember to be creative. D:<

[The.Muffin.King]

I remember i put music back on purevolume a few years back when i was a guppy. I was the aaa's

[JoelCMJ]

you wanna do thrash? Megadeth, testament, slayer etc? It's so hard to find people that will play that stuff believe me. It's a big new thing. New Wave Of Thrash coming back so you should be able to find some people. Keep it fast, agressive, shredding but with a heap of uniqeness to it. thats how a band is remembered in thrash.

[Dwarra?]

NECRO'D

[cjonlyyou]

why don't you try mixing rap with rock?
Linkin Park did it

I don't know go for what the vocalist wants

[Knownot]

yeah make a new sound...

try singing through a roadcone...

[Dwarra?]

DOUBLE NECRO
I think by now hes already formed a band, broken up, and done a comeback tour

[Malson]

or perhaps he's formed a band, but got so annoyed by his corporate image that he shot himself in the head
