Where Is Vishnu When You Need Him?

In case you didn’t know already, The Epsilon Rising is looking for a drummer.

But not just any drummer. Apparently they require the Hindu god Vishnu to descend from the heavens, assume his human form, and take the sticks. All four of ’em.

If a song requires an over dub of congas, finger cymbals, tympani, or, maracas, you would have this awareness and the sensibilities to apply them in a thought-provoking way. Consistently, when a person listens to our band, we wish them to hear the drums and say “wow”! An understanding of ROCK/blues/J A Z Z /bluegrass/old country/classical/bossa nova/punk/reggae/etc. is a must and only the tip of the iceberg …

What’s more, aspiring drummers should not be clean-cut white boys:

…the longer the hair, the better. If you believe in revolution through music, and you have your place to prove in the world of musical giants, then this is the opportunity you have been seeking. Ethnicity is encouraged as we are dealing with the reality of God and all man, not just modern white materialistic, celebrity craving “reality”, but truly, the counter culture of human reality.

Also, you don’t need to smoke the chiba, but it can’t hurt:

…this is niether a “straight-edge band” nor “pro-drug” band. We do smoke cannibus but have no expectations for the drummer of this band other than great music.

So what do you have to lose? If you’re in the greater Hyderabad area or believe so strongly in your music that travel is not an issue, download a few demo tracks and add your special blend of congas, finger cymbals, tympani, maracas, whatever.
