Hi, Llewellyn here...

azraelscorn

Hey i'm azraelscorn, my real name is Llewellyn Van Der Berg. I'm based in Gauteng, in Sasolburg.. I worship Ibanez guitars and boss effects.. My passion is black and death metal lead guitar.. Main influences Behemoth, Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir and In Flames.
I started my band, Sephiroth, with my cousin Ross Matias(Drummer), we recently found a new bassist as our 1st didn't quite work out..
We'll be recording our 3-track demo in September...
My guitar is an Ibanez SA260,not bad but i'm looking to upgrade to an Iceman soon...
i use the boss metalzone distortion pedal(which is awesome!) and i have the Ibanez TBX150H head with IS450 cab...
I joined to meet guitarists with similar interests..So its great to be here...
Thanks..I'll just shut up now...later
P.s I;ll post pics of my gear later..

Thanx guys!
yeah at the gates is good,but people don't realise the different genres within metal..I'm more black and death,if u wanna hear AMAZING gutar and drumming, listen to Behemoth!

I'll post 1 of our songs,but how can i prove it's mine?u know,in case someone downloads it and randomly calls it theirs..i have no copyrights..
so that makes me a little nervous..

Well, if it ever came up in court, you would just need to prove that you had it first. 200 witnesses on an online forum would make for a pretty compelling argument.

If you are really worried though, burn a copy to CD first and send it to yourself registered mail. DO NOT OPEN IT when you get it. If a question ever arises as to it being yours you have incontrovertible sealed and dated proof that it is yours that can be opened in court. If that happens the court records suffice to counter any subsequent claims.

azraelscorn

Ooh!alan clever lawyer man!hehe thanx man..yeah I'll have the original on disc and so will the other members,and the guy who records us..rocking..

Hi Llewellyn.

Welcome!

Alan's 100% right as to a practical way of showing originality and date of creation.

We had a fair amount of dicussion regarding copyright issues over the last month or so, leading to a fair explanation of the requirements in RSA. Suggest you have a peek if youre creating original work!!

Hi and welcome

Its good to see more and more Death/black metal players joining ! I would say it's the fastest growing genre of metal lately! If you want to check out an awesome black metal band from S.A have a look at Riger Mortim. Their opening for Nile !
