My band, Cultzilla. The artwork is done by a guy on the internet that is on another forum I go to. Formed on June 6th, 2009, under the name Hadal Zone, and after numerous name changes, and lineup changes, the name Cultzilla was agreed upon. Soon after that, all 3 founding members reunited.

As of july 2010, we have not officially recorded any songs, as we are busy with school, and other parasites that devour our time. Some of our influences are Megadeth, Slayer, Overkill, Dio, Agent Steel, Sodom, Nuclear Assault, Old Metallica, Whiplash, Judas Priest, Slaughter, Death, Evile, Black Sabbath, Metal Church, and Exodus.

Members are
Adam Rollick- Lead Guitar
Alex Luchak- Bass Guitar
Max Mueller- Rhythm Guitar

The name isn't something we just pulled out of our ass too, its got meaning.

Cultzilla.

Cult = a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object

Religion = the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, esp. a personal God or gods

Basically the same thing. So we replaced God in Godzilla with Cult. :p
The whole reason I thought of doing it in the first place is because I was looking through my itunes list, and I read in the corner of my eyes, "Cultzilla" so I look back and turns out due to maybe minor dyslexia, it actually read "Blue Oyster Cult - Godzilla".
lol


AND the cover has symbolism and lots of little hidden things in it.
The grim reaper is two faced, for one, which is symbolism for being, well, two faced!
and he's got a priest collar, put it together, haha

and then in the background theres a burning church, not even my idea, the artist put it there, but it adds a nice touch.

Also, it says RIP DIO on the bottom of the stick. :D

We've got a recording done, tell me if you like it, its a work in progress actually, its got next to no drums in it, we're going to get someone to do it later, right now we're thinking of lyrics and stuff.

Edge of Era.m4a

This is our first serious recording, so don't be to harsh on us lol.
Its supposed to be Psychedelic. I think its pretty good for one of our first recordings and our first serious one.

LXA that is pretty good. You are only 16? I really like the band name. Recording is really a learn as you go experience. Are you trying to capture a raw or polished sound? I can give you tips on mixing and effects you can use to get a better product. Are you guys going to record seperately or all together in a live sound room?

We're recording each part individually on my desktop computer using garageband and stuff.
We're going to redo it because we recorded it all clean, and decided to add distortion later on the computer, but that makes it sound artificial and just isn't the right way to go.
We're going to do it again and next time my buddy is going to use his guitar. He's left handed and he was using my guitar, which is right handed, so obviously, he couldn't play to his potential. And, I'd love to hear some of your tips, oh hahahahahahaha if you want to hear some other stuff by us, but is complete crap lol, check out our fake band. Its supposed to be intentionally AWFUL. We made it to piss people off.

We have now got a drummer who isn't a giant douche bag. His name is also Jacob, ironically, as was our previous drummer. We are currently debating what genre we are going to be. Adam and I want to keep it open and not label ourself a specific genre, and just play what we want, however my friend Max wants to be exclusivly Thrash, although I can sense his opinion is changing slightly, the more and more Adam and I push it, and Jacob, I don't know what he wants, but he seems like he has a pretty open mind.

We plan on getting together sometime soon, and practicing our asses off until we have written some songs. After that we'll try pooling together some money, and go record some tracks for a demo. That'll probably be the next time you'll hear some shit from us because we're going to take a break from just randomly recording and we are going to practice our asses off until we feel we're ready. That could be a year, it could be 2, heck it could be 4, we're only 16, we've got plenty of time to practice over the next few years. Tell ya guys more if anything interesting happens.

Hell, we might even change the artwork for our demo. My dad is a really great artist and he wants to do some stuff for us. I could actually probably post some of my dads artwork. He wants to design our mascot, kind of like how Iron Maiden has Eddie, Megadeth has Rattlehead, etc. Personally, the one we have now looks too much like the grim reaper itself. We want it to be a little bit different, so I'm actually discussing it with my dad over FB. Get back to you if we figure out some designs for it.
