Post your band history[views:71601][posts:217]_________________________________ [May 17,2009 9:54am - t2daeek ""] Handicapped Heroes, bass - 2000 - My first band. we practiced in a garage with no heat between jan/feb of 2000. mostly misfits covers, a radiohead cover, and several really fast and gritty punk originals. we recorded an album on a handheld tape recorder which I duplicated on my moms karaoke machine. members of that band later played with run like hell/end it all. Might have been halfway decent if my parents didn't forbid me to play in bands when I got a D in algebra 1. aenigma, bass/sax - summer 2000 - mostly radio rock covers... played cook outs in south east MA hoping to make some money when we were all 13/14. wrote a couple songs... nothing spectacular. Hollow Point, bass - Spring/Summer 2001 - Nu Metal originals. yay. notta too preety good, boy. Defect In Design, bass - Spring 2002/Spring 2004 - Basically a "better" version of Hollow Point that we started working on when I heard a 14 year old Matt Ponte (former hive smasher) use double bass over the phone. Recorded an album which at the time sounded great. Staind-ish. Entropy, bass/keys - Summer 2004/Summer 2006 - Dredg-ish alt-rock/metal. Project I worked on with friends from Dartmouth. Band never played gigs... probably 3 in 2 years till we started playing all acoustic at Mirasols in Dartmouth a couple times a month. Most interesting thing we ever did was friend every band on myspace with the name entropy. we thought it was funny. apparently entropy of malden ma was fairly upset with us for this. so if any of you from that band frequent this forum I would just like to say that I hope you found your sense of humor. If not, then please continue gargling semen. Pathos, guitar, vox, bass, horns, keys, percussion - Spring 2004/Present - Alt-Country/Folk acoustic home project. No performances in 5 years, save a couple solo open mic things. Wilco/Johnny Cash/Fleet Foxes inspired. One track to be released on Lowell and Behold Vol. 2 in the next year or so. www.myspace.com/pathosma A Dream That Can Last, sax, vox - Fall 2005/Present? - Jam/Jazz/Funk/Rock/Country/Blues... Bar band. pretty good one too. Members now live in lowell, nashville, and new york city pursuing other ventures. In The Face, Bari/Tenor Sax - Spring 2006/Spring 2008 - Ska/Punk/Booze. On occassion still plays as the In The Face Big Band, 13 piece ska/punk orchestra. Tim now plays drums for Hive Smasher Hive Smasher, Bass - metal/grind/douchery. going out on tour in a couple weeks. good times to be had. Heavy Drinker, vox - loud. Stoner/doom/misc mike patton inspired vox. Keyboard player from hive smasher on guitar. |

Mark Gibbons and Andy From beat to death were also in it. We had no idea what we were doing. Me and Andy wanted to play grind, mark and chris wanted to play thrash. Chris's girlfriend got wicked fat and ate a bunch of twinkies and I couldnt deal with the drama and the quit. He would later jump me and hit me in the face with some sort of club or stick and still has revenge coming. I wonder if he knows he gave his girlfriend after that HPV. Then they got Greg from Upon Crimson Wings/Beat to Death to play bass. Last years memmories - metalcore band back in the hayday of metalcore. We practiced near UCW and I met Mark. TYAG - Then when I was 15 I lied about my age to join TYAG. Not sure if I ever came clean about that, but I was 15 and probably wouldn't have been even asked to try out. Was overwealmed by the technicality and still being in highschool and not even old enough to have a job, was going to quit after Inanimately soundless was done but was let go before that. Rohis - I started a deathcore/glasscasket/in dire need esque band with Andy from Beat to death. He went on to start beat to death, and I carried the rohis name to the next band since we never really used it. Rohis v2.0 - After Dave Maggot quit From Darkest Skies, Me and the drummer started the real Rohis. I loved alot of the music but the other guitarist was too metal core and we had problems finding a singer so I quit. Brian from the neon hookers sang for us for a while, and I think Joey from IDN sang for us live one time. The Body Farm - Me and Mark started the body farm. Was supposed to be another glasscaskety band. Kieth Mutiny sang, and Max L from goratory played bass. Murph played with us for a while but the hike was too much for him, and we had eliot play. Not sure what happened with that, but me and Mark got caught up in other projects and stopped talking about the body farm. Tyag - Me, Devon, And Lupi from rohis re-started the tyag thing. Lupi joined the Army, and we got Anthony Samone and Mark rejoined. Anthony was too far away, so we got Mike B (composted) to play drums with us, and they insisted on having Eliot play bass. Me and Eliot have 'creative differences' so I stopped going to practice and let them do there own thing. Ive been bandless since. I've got two more Rohis concept albums worth of material but don't have musicians to play it with. after reading this, you come off as a total douchebag |

Technical Death metal. cryptopsy- none so vile worship. made two demos, never got out of Johnny H's basement cause drummers never show up to practice. Abhorred - '03-'07 - Guitar - started as a thrash/grind hybrid, ended up much more thrashy. LOVED playing in this band. toured a little bit. played the choppin' block 94385734987 times, and were pretty much a house band at o'briens. tons of great memories from the OLD o'bs. released a shitty record and never released an awesome ep thats still sitting on my computer. Depressing to think where this band could have potentially gone. Noosebomb: 07-08 - Bass - LOUD punk/doom/heavy metal. Fun as hell band to be in. Toured with them once. got SHIT FACED. played with our amps on 11! got shit faced again. released a comp and 7" when i was with them. Rampant Decay: 08-present - bass. drunken thrashcore! fun as hell to play. get totally shit faced and watch rich horror completely offend all the women at shows. Cold Northern Vengeance: 08-present - guitar - occult blackened heavy metal! Back on guitar finally. the most technical band iv'e ever played in. Played nashville two weeks ago and a us tour slated for later this year, europe to follow i hope. Love the atmosphere this band creates. |

Material written by the guitarist/vocalist. Practiced a few times and played a couple strange shows. Weird time in my life. I played with them because I wanted to be in a band - any band. We parted because they wanted to tour while I was going to school. That never happened though, they could never find a suitable drummer replacement, and when they did, they recorded an entire album that was stolen right out of their practice space. That was the end of that. Funny thing is though, it was the kind of stuff that could compete on an easy listening rock station if they worked their ass off for a few months. who else was in that project? big mike, shawn malloy, kevin d, your mom |

Wrote two songs and never left the basement. 2000-06 Disengaged-Guitar: I still to this day have no idea how to describe us. We played a ton of shows around New England.

Sold out the Middle East once. Eventually turned into Disengaged. 2007-Present Bearstorm-Guitar/Vocals: Doom band with a Murf and Al from Deadlikedeath and James from RAOV/HotH.

I know, lame. Safe Haven (01-02) - Lead Guitar - Original punk metal band. First original band that I was in. Nothing to write home about. Blackout Frenzy (03-06) - Lead Guitar - Original metal band. Was a founding member. Left to do more old school thrash and death metal stuff. Bloodshed Unreal (Dec 06-Oct 08) - Lead Guitar - Original metal band. Not sure how you would describe. There are elements of thrash, hardcore, and what not in there. PyAD (Jan 09 - Present) - Lead Guitar - Original metal band. Elements of Heavy/Doom metal. Cool guys. They wanted me to add leads and fills to their stuff and help kick them over to the speed thrash/speed/death metal side of things. Haven't recorded anything with them or gigged out with them yet. What can I say? I still suck. :duffbeer: |

| ______________________________ [Nov 9,2013 12:52pm - Lamp ""] Played in a couple bad bands in high school in 2004. One of them already had bass/drums/guitar and they wanted me to do vocals, then play second guitar, then they pretty much instantly decided they didn't like anything I was doing. The other one I played guitar and did a little bit of vocalizing. We played a show at a VFW hall in Exeter, RI and then never practiced again. Spent several years as a recluse practicing in solitude... Insufferable Ingrate (2010-2013) - Guitar/vocals. Crossover thrash with blast beats. Took some time to get off the ground for various reasons. We put out an 18 minute tape, did a weekend in Philly and Long Island, played some local shows. I stopped doing it because it was pretty obvious we weren't going to accomplish anything given the attitude of the other band member... Spinach (2012-present): Guitar. Fastcore assault, short songs. 7" coming out soon, it's right about ready to go to the plant. Easily the most fun thing I have ever done with music. |

My First Death (2005) Metalcore - First band that recorded a song in a real studio. Didn't play a show though. Apsiody (2007) Metalcore - Crappy metalcore band that played a couple shows with a couple big names but didn't go anywhere. The Cadaveric Manifesto (2007-2008) Death Metal - Musically, my favorite band to play in. Had a ton of fun playing shows. I wish our demo was recorded better. My drummer recorded it and refused to fix the fucking thing. Broke up when my bassist joined the military and I followed suit not too long after. Oni-Waka (2008) Traditional Metal/Rock - Cool little side project I did while in Cadaveric. Played drums for this and there are a couple practices on You Tube : bennyhillifier Dismantle The Cyborg (2009) Deathcore - Played Summer Slaughter with this band. That was one of the best moments of my music career at the time. I joined the Army that summer. Stasis (2011-2012) Sludge/Doom Metal - My favorite drum project. Really brought out a lot of influences I was starting to really get into. Had a lot of fun playing the couple shows we played. Only wish we got to record. Matt from Martyrvore and Eerie plays drums for them now. Here is our first show in December of 2011: bennyhillifier Skin Drone (2013 - Present) Death Metal - Current project on vocals. It's a studio project for now but we have a lot of interest from people to fill out our vacancies. Really looking forward to where this goes.
