Time to start writing music?

For a long time, (like since I was 10-12) I've wanted to write music. Throughout the years, I've listened to a lot of shit and learned a lot about it. I'm getting to the point where I REALLY want to start getting some stuff out there.

I've been playing guitar for about 6 years, drums for around 3, and bass for around 2. What I really love doing when it comes to music is vocals, though. My voice is mid-low, and naturally inclined towards an aggressive tone while singing which matches nicely with my preferred genre being metal. I have lyric sheets spread over all why electronic devices, melodies written for all of them in my head, just no aural representation of anything. I want that to change.

I don't know when I'm gonna have the time and motivation to start doing this, but one day I'm gonna have shit up on here. If I really wanted to, I could actually write something acoustic and post it by the end of the week, but I don't want to do that. I want to release music when I feel I'm ready, not to pump something out just for the sake of having it in the portal.

One day :===3 )

Don't worry, dude. The NG audience isn't going anywhere.

I myself am choosing to use this site to upload art and stuff, but I'm always thinking 'Will it be good enough for the Art Portal?' when I'm halfway through a piece. I need to drop that kind of thinking and just spend time on something that I'm happy with, really.

Again, there's no rush, and I hope that your creative pursuit will yield some epic music. I look forward to it, and take care. :D

I taught myself black metal vocals, sucks how there's never any bands looking for BM vocalists

I could be completely wrong, but it seems to me like a logical starting point for a band would include a vocalist, which could mean your slot's just already filled in a lot of places. Keep looking and you're bound to find something, or get something of your own started :)

Dude, if you're willing to lay down some vocals, a cover or something original. I would totally love to do something with them.

I'll do I something cool, hopefully something surprising but most importantly something enjoyable
