My names Tim. I've been a drummer for 9yrs. I've been playing set for 6yrs and have been playing set seriously for 4 out of those six years. I'm the drummer of a band called Vile Cynic. If you have any questions feel free to message me or talk to me on the Drum Chat.

Hi Tim, what drums you playing.... Is your band signed to a label? (dare I say it)

I play a Tama Swingstar set with extra rack tom, Sabian Cymbals, and Iron Cobra double pedal. No, my old band was not signed. Feel free to go check out the music but keep in mind all those songs we're recorded around 2-3 yrs ago and I have progressed since then. We did have a Earache record scout looking at us for about 6 months, but the band broke up because of fighting and me breaking my wrist during a month when we had 6 shows set up, a couple being festivals and playing as an opening band at The Pearl Room.

At least we got to open for Powerman 5000. One of the highlights of my drumming career so far even if they did kinda become wash ups.

Sorry if this is a little more than you are looking for.

Dude you're doing pretty well. I live in the most isolated city on the planet, so it's a little difficult to any kind of exposure. On the other hand, it does mean we have a thriving local music scene.

Well, if you remember they started to become really popular when Tonight The Stars Revolt came out. Then other bands like Ill Nino started taking the spotlight leaving PM5K with nothing. I think in order to gain back popularity they started playing what is popular now in hopes of having a come back. That's my guess.
