    The very first riff reminds me a lot of Dracul Gras - Periphery. About 2:50 into the song

    Just came across your channel today. CZcams has been on a hot steak lately, so I feel like I might actually get something done. I primarily play guitar. I enjoy messing around with vocals but its just something I do more for fun. Bass pretty swanky as well, but also for fun. Me and a buddy play mostly heavier stuff. I also like to mess around with ambient every once in a while.

  • @nickpov3y
    @nickpov3y Před rokem

    i make a bunch of different types of music, but perhaps most relevant to this channel, i am a drummer and I used to play in a djent band. aside from my rapping, most music I make is very heavily influenced by post rock and post metal. the djent band i played in and started (crevassian) was very heavily inspired by uneven structure, miroist and cloudkicker. my goal was to make the most posty djent possible. recently, i've started a post rock band, but also, your riffs have inspired me to write metal (entirely virtually, for now) again.
