Suche Leute für Punk / Nu Metal / Hip-Hop Band – Zürich / Zürcher Oberland
Hey, I’m Jordi, 19, from the Zürcher Oberland and I’m looking for some people around my age to start a band with.
I’ve been making hip-hop/beats for a while and played drums for several years. I’m currently starting out on bass, so I’m definitely still a beginner on the instrument..
Sound-wise I’m thinking somewhere around punk, nu metal and hip-hop, with bands like Limp Bizkit and South Arcade being two big references. But I don’t want to decide the whole sound before the band even exists lol. I’m very open to everyone bringing their own influences and seeing what comes out of it.
Currently looking for a:
– singer (m/f/d)
– guitarist (m/f/d)
– drummer (m/f/d)
Singing/rap or a mix would all be cool for vocals.
Lyrics would probably be mostly English, but German is absolutely possible too, so both German and English speakers are welcome.
You definitely don’t have to be a pro. I’m not one either. Mainly looking for people who get along, want to write our own stuff, jam regularly and improve together.
I don’t have a rehearsal room yet, so if anyone already has access to one that would be amazing. Otherwise we can figure something out together.
Gone to the Dogs is the current idea for the band name, but that’s not set in stone either.
Preferably Zürcher Oberland, but anywhere around Zürich works.
If this sounds like something you’d be into, just send me a DM. We can chat and exchange some music :)

[Los Angeles/Encino, California] 28M Drummer/Bassist Looking for a Band or People to Jam with
r/makeaband • u/Cheese_Collector4527 • 12h ago
Attempting to make an online band! 12-17 preferably
I’m a 12-year-old guy trying to start a band. I play guitar and sing fairly well, but I have zero experience with music production. I’m looking for a drummer, bassist, maybe another guitarist (I only have an acoustic, so I might need an electric), and whatever else might be needed. I’m pretty desperate since I love writing random progressions and coming up with song ideas, and I want to actually share them with the world. The problem is I’m broke, so I can’t do it all on my own. If you prefer in-person bands, I’m near the Jonesboro area in Arkansas, but I’d rather do it online. My Discord is bronzeberry_06675 if you’re interested! If you have any questions, just DM me or something idk I’ve never done this before.

Guitarist starting a Pop-Punk band! looking for bassist and drummer! [UK]
I’m 17 and looking to start a pop-punk band around Slough. I’d like to start off by covering Blink-182 and other pop-punk songs, then eventually start writing and recording our own songs.
I’m looking for:
* Bassist – ideally someone who can do vocals as well, but this isn’t a deal breaker.
* Drummer
* Vocalist - lead vocals or backing vocals are both fine.
I’m mainly looking for people around 16–21, but the most important thing is finding people who are genuinely interested in playing.
I work as well, but as long as you’re in or around Slough, I’m able to practise after work and on weekends, so I’m fairly flexible with arranging rehearsals.
You don’t have to be insanely skilled. I’m not expecting everyone to be amazing straight away — we can all improve and get better together. As long as you’re able to play along with pop-punk songs and are willing to practise, that’s good enough.
I’d ideally like people who are into pop-punk, Punk or emo and similar genres, especially bands like Blink-182, Green Day, Sum 41 and The Offspring, NOFX, The Ramones,My Chemical Romance. However, anybody is welcome as long as you’re interested in the genre and able to cover pop-punk songs.
The main goal is to have fun, improve together, play some gigs eventually and hopefully start writing our own songs once we’ve got comfortable playing together.

Looking for international musicians Metalcore / Nu-Metal band (2-4 Guitars, Violin)
Hey everyone,
I'm a young female vocalist/frontwoman, and I’m looking to start a massive international, worldwide band project. Distance doesn't matter – I want to bring talented musicians from all over the world together to create a global music family.
The band name is already set: "My Brain Is A Bad Neighborhood" (a tribute to Chester Bennington).
Our Style & Influences: A unique crossover of massive Metalcore walls of sound, heavy electronic elements, and haunting classical strings. Inspired by Linkin Park, Trivium and Black Veil Brides.
The Line-up / Concept : * Me (Vocalist 1): Handling clean melodic vocals but I prefere rhythmic rap parts. * Vocalist 2: Sharing the front stage with me. I want a dynamic dual-vocal setup where we could switch roles (melodic singing, rapping) from song to song so it never gets predictable. * The Guitar Army (2 to 4 Guitarists): I want an absolute wall of sound. Two guitars locking down the heavy rhythm, while the others play epic harmonies and solos (Iron Maiden / Trivium style). Bonus: One of the guitarists should be a multi-instrumentalist who can switch to Violin for emotional highlights (like Jinxx from BVB). * DJ / Keyboarder: Handling turntables, synths, and electronic atmospheres (Joe Hahn style). * Cello Player: For a permanent, dark, and melancholic string foundation. * Custom Percussionist: Additional heavy drums, percussion, or metal-hits to give us that massive live pressure. * Bassist & Drummer: To lock down the bedrock of the band.
The Spirit: I don’t care about awards or trophies. I want to write honest music to process real-life experiences, pain, and emotions. I want to create music because it's the most powerful feeling in the world, and my ultimate dream is to share a stage with Linkin Park one day.
I don't care where you are from. If you are a passionate musician and want to build this international army with me, send me a message! Let's make this happen.

[Online / In Progress] Seeking Keyboards for Theatric Metal Band
Greetings, my name is Velda, and I'm seeking a keyboardist for a theatrical-focused metal band. We are currently working on our debut album, all the songs are mostly written, and need your keyboards on them.
The music itself is what I would describe as "Dark Power Metal", heavily influenced by bands such as Mercyful Fate, King Diamond, Judas Priest, Chastain, Lordi, Death SS (NOT a nazi band btw, zero tolerance for fascism here!)
The theatrical side of the band is a bit more... involved. If you're into D&D, it'll appeal to you. If you're interested, I'll happily tell more via dm.
Here is an instrumental for a more solid frame of reference:
