oh not at all man. we got 10k for the album and 3k for artwork and promotional pictures and stuff like that. pretty limited budget but we got hooked up with Tim from As I Lay Dying's engineer friend so we're tracking in Tim's house for 100 bucks a day and not really shelling out that much for mixing. mastering will be pricey and drums were expensive but we got really excellent drum sounds.

Did you steal your name from the decapitated song

[jufros]

Yeah i think so. I'm not an original member so I actually have no idea but we're all pretty deep into Decapitated so it wouldn't surprise me.

[cureOne]

It's a good song, the drummer was like 15 when they recorded that or some shit

[dry the rain]

guitar (5 yrs)

bass (something like 10 or 12)

cello (since the third grade, with a pretty big gap in uni, planning to start up more now that i have a cello again and i'm graduating)

self taught/remedial drums

voice (working on 2 years of being a little less than paralyzed by the presence of an audience)

and badass drone flute rockouts

nice dude....that's fucking cheap as all hell for the recording. one of my bands is about to hit the studio for album number 2 in a month or so...we are doing shit ourselves at the moment, but hopefully the demos we are about to send off are recieved well by some people that we want to work with. shelling out over $10k for the last album out of our own pockets fucking killed us.

good luck with it all

Yeah decapitated is definitely one of my favorite metal bands. They do a ton of really interesting rhythmic stuff without sacrificing the shred. I listen to a lot of meshuggah and Mr. Bungle but I also really dig just nasty blast beats, sweeps, speed chugs, etc. Decapitated kind of has the best of both worlds going on.

I'm a cellist, and am studying music performance

i didn't realize there were so many metalheads on sufu...

i'm an indie kinda kid myself, but no hate. just interesting.

drytherain - im an everything-head really....variety is the spice of life etc etc. obsessed with music full stop, all sorts!

[jeepster]

ill listen to anything except barry manilow.

[chrisbunnington]

i listen to every genre of music and i'm really open minded and always willing to listen to new band and so on. but when it comes down to it i'm a total, complete metalhead at heart. i get "oh, you don't look like one of those metal guys!" pretty much every time i get into a conversation about music with someone.

YES!! everything..

I took classical piano lessons from when i was 4 until i was like 14.

Started trombone lessons in 6th grade. I just graduated high school and am incredibly serious about my trombone playing it is what i will be studying in college. placed in top 3 in oregon 3 years in a row.

i also play tuba and euphonium. and guitar for fun mostly...

[tac0tron]

I play the piano and guitar. Piano I mostly play classical stuff, but sometimes sneak in a little Jazz. As for guitar; classical, jazz, blues, punk, and metal. I love playing classical though.

[jyoni]

Basic guitar chords, nothing too skillful. I have a guitar in the bass octave though, so people like adding it to their mix.

[rockon99]

School tuba, yamaha beginner thing.. 4 valves. sounded tubby though. i mostly played on an Amati. Thats my trombone Conn 88h-cl in rose brass.

[RFKorp]

I studied classical piano for about 6 years when I was younger. Cello for 2. Music theory and composition for well over a decade of my life. Then put that all aside and went through a long phase all about prepared electric guitar through super complex laptop processing.

But I put the software away and now I mostly work with found electronics and amplification techniques. More interested in the juxtapositions of sounds and silences over time than just making a wall of noise. I play percussion sometimes too. Guitar once in a while still but less and less over the past couple years.

My sig is a myspace link if anyone's curious.

I play guitar in a metal/prog/whateveryouwanttocallit band. We've been together for about 2 years now.

starting a little side band this summer, leaning more towards the shoegaze/drone area

[Double D]

Apparently I now have a degree in the bloody stuff.

One day I might actually finish one of my projects...

[jake431]

I played (mostly Tenor) saxophone in Junior High and High School band. Then I (shudders) was in a punk ska band in the late 90's as a way to feel rock n roll instead of a band dork for all those school years. But whatever, at least I got to tour the US a bunch. It could have been worse; it could have been disco.
