Band ha; By KELLY C. THOMAS Staff Writer The Deboning Method, in the words of bass player Jimmy Watson, have a combination "neothrash-grind-jazz-classical thing going on." Guitarist Wade Sellers calls the band a speed metal band trying to incorporate elements of hardcore, jazz, experimental, rock and dance, . . and also just noise. We're trying to take a different twist with our music. "Sarcasm runs really deep in our band, especially with Ned," Sellers said. Ned Peterson is the band's lead singer and guitar player, replacing former member Jason Skipper. Drummer Derek Roddy is the fourth and final member of the band, which will perform at 8 p.m. tonight at Club 18 on Bush River Road. The Deboning Method made news this past semester by winning the university's Battle of the Bands held in the Golden Spur. "I was really surprised that a speed metal band won in a college competition against three college-type music bands," Sellers said. "It was really fun." Peterson grinned and let his sarcasm shine through. "Let it be known that speed metal reigned aup^uui uu ja^z. iumuu, lap, a nippie band and some other type of band," he said. "Speed metal is the best" The band started out in May 1988 and made their first public appearance at the Irmo Battle of the Bands. Sellers said they started out writing original songs and didn't even think of doing cover songs until recently.
