| Välkomna trummisar! Vi söker nu en jäkligt bra trummis till bandet. Du ska vara hungrig, vilja repa ofta och gärna ha rötterna i många olika musikstilar. Du ska ha lätt för att spela det som är svårt så att det låter lätt. Hänger du med? Det är viktigt att du kan groova och att du har stenkoll på att hålla tempon, annars gör det detsamma hur tekniskt driven du är. Känner du igen dig? Då kanske det är just dig vi letar efter - sätt igång och fyll i formuläret nedan... <<< back ll Hur kommer detta gå till? ll ENGLISH >>>

Explanation of the application procedure 1. First, we will gather applications and search for interesting ones. The length of this initial state will depend on the number of applications, but we wish to proceed as quickly as possible so don't wait with sending in your details! 2. We will ask for recordings of audio/video of yourself playing, so start recording as soon as you can. It does NOT have to be top quality, it is the playing/groove/technique we are interested in, not your recording facilities. If you already have recordings and have the possibility of uploading them, you can add links to these files below in field/question 21. 3. When we feel that we have enough applications to continue, we will start booking auditions with the drummers we find most interesting, and maybe ask for some more recordings if you are hanging in the balance. 4. AUDITION: You will be told to study and learn some POS songs for the audition. Likely song candidates are: Handful of Nothing, Nightmist, Idioglossia, Disco Queen, Rope Ends, Flame to the Moth and/or America. There will also be a jam session (that might be turning out pretty weird, just to warn you), and learning passages from new, unreleased material. There will be some harmony singing from a song or two (the choruses of "!" and Flame to the Moth for example) in which you will be given different harmonies to try your range and voice characteristics. On top if this there will be a cozy little chat over coffey/tea to see how nice you are. 5. If we are uncertain after the first auditions we might give it some more time and wait for new applications, but the main goal is to contact you back as soon as possible with our thoughts. If you suck we'll break it to you gently. If we sucked, please never let us know. ;) 6. Then, if you happen to be our main choice, we want to get things running as soon as possible. Johan Langell will be there as a resource for the rest of this year, phasing out as you phase in so to speak. This also means you may be looking at playing some gigs at the end of this year. In any case, we wish to throw you into the making of our next album, so you are in for a hectic period in any case. This is one of the things you have to consider when applying. 7. We wish to stress that even if you have some major drawbacks (like you cannot sing or you don't have time to join until next year) it doesn't have to rule you out as a possible drummer, if you really stand out when it comes to other aspects. But sure, it doesn't really help you either. In any case, we respect full honesty and a realistic view, and appreciate that much more than covering up and getting bad surprises further down the line. Don't be afraid to show yourself just as you are. Now, that was it. Just go ahead and fill in the application form above now, and the wheels are set in motion... |
