Looking for a 2nd guitarist, a bassist and a drummer

We're looking for a talented rhythm guitarist and a bassist capable of death, black, thrash and heavy metal riffs, good at fast picking (shredding), palm-muting, triplets, alternate picking, tight stabs etc. Also being able to play good lead guitar will be a huge advantage and would be incorporated into our sound, but it's definitely not a prerequisite. We want an experienced double-bass drummer who doesn't just blast as fast as possible (substance please, not noise!)

We're based in the Southwell (Notts.) at the moment, but will be moving to Beeston in Nottingham in May 2005. We will consider you if you don't live in Notts, provided that you're willing to travel and have commitment. Some personal musicianship and ingenuity on your part would certainly be a bonus, although not a necessity because we have a lot of full songs (and potential ideas) written already. As well as our music, we intend to be quite a visual live band, so open-mindedness in this respect is also important. You must be available to practise most evenings and weekends, as we intend to practise at least once (hopefully twice) a week. We're looking for someone aged between 18 and 30, although we may make exceptions for particularly outstanding youngsters or more experienced folk.

Our musical influences:

Death (the band)
Immortal
Dissection
Borknagar
King Diamond
At the Gates
Destruction (+ other 80s thrash)
Judas Priest (+ other heavy metal)
Classical etc.

We are: a guitarist/backing vocalist (me) and a lead vocalist.
