Ruin is in need of members! PLEASE read inside. in Long Beach, California For Sale

Seller:
Type: Music instruments, For Sale - Private.

We are Ruin. A 5 piece based out of Southern California.
We have been posting an ad looking for a female vocalist that is into heavy music. I would describe our sound as Melodic/Heavy/Prog/Metal but also with some other elements. I know those are words thrown around very often, and plenty of people use them to describe themselves and their music, but I really think we have something good going here.
Currently Seeking:
Keys/Programmer/Samples/Synth player
and
Clean Vocals (Preferably female)
--
We have also been in bands that didn't work out. That said they had the drive and didn't, that said they wanted this for life (and left when it came time for the hard work).
I see influences as just that : doesn't mean we sound like those bands, It just means they are what makes us want to pursue music. Our list of influences is no where NEAR finished, and this is where that one difference comes in, but so you can see who is inspiring us:
Suicide Silence, August Burns Red, Parkway Drive, Underoath,White Chapel, Of Mice and Men, As I Lay Dying, As Blood Runs Black, All That Remains, 3, Bury Your Dead, Children Of Bodom, Cradle of Filth, Cryptopsy, Decapitated, Dimmu Borgir, God Dethroned, Gojira, In Flames, Iwrestledabearonce, KSE, Lamb of God, Meshuggah, Mudvayne, Norma Jean, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Otep, Pantera, Poison the Well, Sepultura, Slayer, Unearth, Periphery, motionless in white , fell silent , Monuments , etc...
This would make it perfect because we are looking for a sort of beauty and the beast thing going on, with our vox's immense growls and screams and a females soaring, sweet, epic, soft, powerful voice (or keys) on top.
Our requirements are:
Must be 18
Get to practice and shows (We are cool guys, we def don't mind a carpool if that is most convenient)
Money (practice/shows/merch/recs/etc)
Sense of humor. Honestly, we are very business minded with this group, but we have SO much fun doing it. Including the fact that we are all friends as well as band mates now, to establish a stronger bond.
Talent is a definite part of this group. Rather some of our members are college educated, some are self taught, we for sure know what we are doing. (I alone have been playing music for 19 years now) and I can say with all certainty that I have never met a more driven group of guys to play with.
I know this is long, I just wanted to give you all the information that you could want, so that way we can spend our time moving forward. You can find more information on us at http://www.facebook.com/OfficialRuin feel free to friend us/Like us and say hello (even if you are not interested in the band, we musicians should stick together)
In closing I should make this all apparent so that way honesty remains key. We come from all different parts around Los Angeles. (West Hollywood, Downtown Los Angeles, Torrance, Bell, and Long Beach respectively) so we chose a place to rehearse that is not only the BEST rehearsal spot in So Cal (I have personally known the owner from just about opening day) I is located close to a few freeways and is comfortable for all of us. Santa Fe Springs is the City.
I really hope that you would be willing to contact us so maybe you can drop by our rehearsal (due to work schedules, currently on sunday nights and give us a listen, a chance to not only hear the music, but be able to feel it and groove with it. If you have any questions, want ANY more info, or just want to say hello you can reach the guitarrist (Lbx) on my cell phone (call or text, both unlimited) at (323) 449 xxxx at almost any time or of course here at our email. Officialruin@gmail.com We look forward to meeting you.
