Guitarist Looking (NW OKC)

I'm wanting to do a polyrhythmic Tool/APC/Cold style rock but keep a High Standard of Morals, Ethics, and Values to the lyrics. Being Christian without shoving it in other peoples faces. More of a setting the example from the way we walk as opposed to the way we talk. It has the groove, it has the rhythm, but it has that emotional springboard to bring all songs to life. For me, from my previous writings, I have little and yet a lot to work from. I need people who have an understanding of the more rhythmic approach to playing, more of the subtle to solid emotional appeal without the crunching, grinding, screaming that metal brings out. Granted, throwing in a solid metal breakdown every once in a while can't be a bad thing... But... this is what I'm thinking, this is what I'm wanting to do. Some references, musically, that I've been listening to is:

www. myspace. com/thekillerandthestar
www.myspace.com/cold

To take that feel, encorporate that with the Christian values in the lyrics - which of course that would need:
- a solid SINGER, not screamer, with good range;
- a methodical, creative drummer;
- a solid, creative bassist;
- a creative, open minded guitarist. I'm not wanting to have the typical rhythm/lead combination. I have some lead skills and some rhythm skills but I want someone who can compliment my playing style and I their style without one playing in the shadows constantly.
Now, if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, I'd love to talk to you. If not, than disregard this ad and I'll keep looking. But, at least now you know: And knowing is half the battle.
