Guitarist looking to start noise punk band
Hi there! I’m a guitarist with my own gear, moving to Belfast at the end of the month, and I’m eager to start making music again. I’m looking for like-minded musicians to jam, write, and ideally, play live.
Influences include:
Punk / Post Punk: The Replacements, Fugazi, Wire, The Dismemberment Plan, Jeff Rosenstock, Television, Minutemen, Parquet Courts, Gang of Four.
Noise pop and Indie: Pixies, Velvet Underground, Japandroids, Nirvana, Cloud Nothings, Pains of Being Pure at Heart, early Modest Mouse.
Classic pop: The Beach Boys, The Beatles, The Supremes, Phil Spector-style girl groups.
Others: Viagra Boys, Courtney Barnett,, Buzzcocks, Alvvays, Beach Bunny, Best Coast, and more.
Basically, I like anything that's very "loud then quiet" like Pixies with a bit of a punk edge.
I’ve been in a few bands before, but I’m looking for something less “serious-serious-serious” this time around. Let’s focus on creating a set of energetic, short, and dynamic songs, have fun, and hopefully do some gigs.
If you’re into the idea of melodic post-punk pop with weird, rough, and fun vibes, let’s chat!
