Ebmm users and Genre's

[aaronb]

I'm kinda curious to see what genre's of music Ebmm users play in general. I know alot of you play more than a single genre (I definetly do) but just vote for the one that you most activly pursue and perform. And also List the spasific instruments you prefer for cirtain styles.

I'll Start, I voted for Extreme Metal/Hardcore. I play in a metalcore/melo death band (link in my signature) and in that band i've been using my Sub 1 HH since I got it about 5 months ago, its a great guitar for the style, and since we gig alot I dont have to constantly worry about it being damaged or stolen (tho that would suck) since it is a moderatly priced guitar. I also play jazz/prog music, and for that I tend to use my Sihlouette special because of the versitility and the fact that it has killer tone with a light distortion.


Yeah EBMM!!!! \m/ \m/

 

[jongitarz]

It only lets you choose one!!!

 

[BucketBot]

I chose shred even though I suck at it. I like to call it "experimental shred".

 

[jongitarz]

I play Nu Jazz progressive buble gum voodoo blues with sort of a deth metal vibe enhanced by the r&b tip, combined with afrocentric euro highlights. If it was easy everybody would be doing it.

 

[tvanveen]

Hmm. No country, no indie/alt rock, no alt country, no hip hop, no r/b, no funk, no death klezmer.

I want to be true to my style I have been messing around with a rap/country fusion I call Crap.

Now,

that's a way to start a new day (hey, it's only 9.45 AM over here in Belgium, it's already Thursday, so, yes, my day just started.



Way too cool man, keep 'em coming...

 

[Polaris]

hmmm

Well I play Electronica (no assumptions please - I can't stand Gary Numan ), acoustic, pretty mellow/trance inducing stuff - I believe I've got some up for download on my website, we're called Mothra (name was from a typical drunken fiasco - had no idea this was Godzilla's arch enemy - guess I'll just have to take him down!

 

[Tokkes]

Oh yeah,

my playing style is mostly contemporary and classic rock. I've been using my Les Paul for that for about 10 years, but ever since I got the EBMM Morse, the Les Paul has been gathering dust and is now up for sale.

But I also like playing more mellow, acoustic stuff and things like that. I'm into a whole bunch of different music styles and bands, so I try a lot of things out, although distortion is mostly on whilst playing...

T.

I just try to play good. I practice many styles. I love classical, blues and definitely heavy metal (death and black metal fall into this as well for me), to prog.

I like most genre's of music. But, I am one with Jon about (C)rap.

 

[Dodgeball]

Contemporary rock is probably my main fix tho classic rock gets some time too and I'm experimenting with more jazz of late...but in a rock vein.

The Axis is the weapon of choice for this tho I have a Luke on order too.

That`s cool to hear your into some extreme music as well,i thought i might be the only one in here that was! *lol* What are some bands your into?

 

[Jimi D]

You too?!?

Man, we have got to jam...

 

[Bowks]

I play Acid Skiffle and Death Jazz, neither of which have categories

 

[francric]

I like hard rock, but I like blues too. Then again progressive rock is cool and then there's jazz, metal, punk.....I AM SOOOOOO CONFUSED!!!!!!!!! I guess I don't play anything specific. I don't know what I want to play when I grow up!!!!!I need to find a simpler, easier, quicker satisfying hobby like knitting.

 

[koogie2k]

Exteme bands I am into are:

Slayer, Bathory, Gorgoroth, Shadow's Fall, Mayhem (heheheh), Immortal, most thrash bands from the earlier days.....Amon Amarth, Strapping Young Lad.....

But, I am a HUGE Police fan.

Of course, I like all the shred stuff, country, jazz.....depends on the mood.

When I jump, it is exteme metal all the way.....Nothing like falling from the sky with Slayer or Gorgoroth pounding on the head set....hehehehehe.....

 

[kbaim]

I'm sort of in this fingerpicking mode. Lots of open strings for sustain. Not in a band currently, so trying to keep myself involved and at the same time making it sound full enough.

And I always come back to the Luke. feels like it was made for me.

I miss playing rock sounding stuff though.

Ditto. Plus Elbonian Opera

Really I'm mixed - Progressive Metal, SRV white boy blues & Michael Hedges/Loe Kottke Acoustic Fingerstyle are my main three. I dabble with old style Jazz ala Joe Pass sometimes too.

I guess the list could be as long as there are users.

>^..^<

 

[tvanveen]

We play sort of indie rock/pop with a bit of alt-country (a very little) thrown in.

When we jam we'll play anything, including funk and reggae.
