BIO: I started getting into metal when I was 10. Me and my mate wanted to make a band, but back then I had no idea about who was musically talented and who wasn't. So it was like, you sing, I play guitar. I picked up a guitar, had a whack, and decided that I would need lessons. I've been having lessons ever since. That band totally dissolved, so I tried starting up different bands, but by the 6th one I joined, it finally started getting somewhere.
My riffs are mainly infuenced by Killswitch Engage, and Children of Bodom. My solos are influenced by Metallica and Iron Maiden's solos. I try to write my riffs in the style of Killswitch Engage. Our music is different to them, in the way that we go from hardcore to black metal. Our music has different styles within songs for variety. My first guitar was a Fender Stagemaster, and that is what I still play...

WOULD LIKE TO THANK: Tom Lumer, Sam Coleman, Adam Bell and James Oldman
