Perhaps it's the KVLT way of spelling hairy.

What are the names of your bands, guys?

I was in two bands. The first was called 'Satan's Inferno', which was a heavy metal band back in the 80's. This was then shortened to 'Inferno', named after the Argento movie

After that, I was in a punk band called 'Slum Tenement', who were described as "The Ramones meets Bronski Beat" (!).

Both bands were awful, but hey - we had the attitude!!!!!

Hope he's not an English teacher. In this instance, the correct spelling is they're and not theyre! Apostrophe Rik, apostrophe. It's a contraction of 'they are'!!!!!

Anyway...

This is the guy I've been recording today. He's the drummer for a band called Diascorium and was once the drummer in a band called A Forest of Stars, both bands apparently pretty well known on the British Black Metal circuit



I ended up putting 14 mics on this kit, most I've ever used for drums!
We got one track down today, hopefully get the other 2 recorded tomorrow

I like Black Metal but that sounds appalling.

Really poor sound quality on this vid, but rest assured, what we've recorded today sounds a 100 times better than this!

I don't mind Kevin Shirley's productions, but nobody will top Martin Birch for me
