BARD TROUPE INFO

Basically I am a professional death metal musician IRL, and I have been since the beginning of high school. Sure wish I could share my published albums with y'all, but we're poor and inexperienced with recording so, to tell ya the truth, they ain't a great representation of us. But such is life.Thanks to COVID and being disabled, I haven't been able to play live shows in 2+ years now. It's really hard to motivate myself to do anything with music if I don't have anything to plan for (like a show, or to send to people, or to show to my friends, anything really).But creating midi files of songs I enjoy and making them work within the parameters of the game is fun, engaging, and honestly rewarding. I've actually had people approach me in-game cause they saw my work on youtube or the BMP discord. It's pretty cool, imo.The project originally started as a joke between me and a friend. We wanted to bring black metal to The Brume. And we did! I speedran ARR with multiple trial alts and got them Ishgard access and created a 1 hour playlist primarily of norwegian black metal songs (some well-known, some not as much). In the process of powerleveling the band members I grew attached to them and came up with little personalities for them and etc. It turned into a fictional band a la Dethklok et al. I was an avid RPer for many years (though I haven't really had the drive or the time lately - I hope to change that and actually RP on FFXIV every now and then).But also, as a musician I really enjoy a wide range of genres (I mean I started music as a classically trained violinist, so of course I'm gonna listen to a lot of stuff), and I can't limit my fictional band to one genre as a result, so I've branched out into other genres and locations. It is supposed to be for fun, after all. But we do still plan to make playing black metal in The Brume a regular thing (as my time and disability allow).

For booking and info you can contact me on discord! My username is bb.poisonYou may also contact me in-game if you manage to catch me online. I'm usually either on Kuro Maru @ Coeurl, or Professor Femboy @ Goblin (however I am often afk on the latter).I require 1 week minimum in advance to prepare for shows!
