alcohol , and anything that makes noise.
if i have to choose i would say ive been most heavily influenced by players like rusty cooley , alex skolnick , jason becker , albert king , danny gatton, alex masi and of course my great friend Oscar demio. bands such as destruction , slayer , nevermore , queensryche , iron maiden.
im also a huge fan of old motown type stuff and late 60's R&B like ray charles , sam and dave , aretha franklin, jackie wilson etc.
last but not least , all the great punk , metal , crossover and just plain wierd or funky bands through the late 80's till now in the oregon and seattle area.
sanctuary , nevermore , napalm beach , the rats , the accused , forced entry , the melvins , nirvana , mentors , metal church.. the list goes on and on.
fuck New York , fuck L.A. northwest rock kicks ass !

Sounds Like
I am not here to show off any virtuosity, or any other such lable that might apply, I am here to write and perform MUSIC,
to take the listener on a ride.
there will be plenty of shredding and guitar madness , but the music will always be the focus.
I want the listener to feel like they have just heard a good song when they hear my work, not just a good guitar player.
give it a listen and tell me what YOU think it sounds like.

BIO STUFF ? here it is. >>>>>>>>>>>>> (dont fall asleep)
Christopher Lee cut his teeth in the early 90's with the legendary NW. metal band "The Kill " serving as the bands primary songwriter and lead guitarist.
after the demise of this pet project, chris went on to expand his interests into other areas of musical adventure, including winning several local and national " hottest guitar " competitions , touring as a lead guitarist with some of the portland / seattle area's more popular metal acts of the middle to late 90's , to come to his present day work as one of the northwests most often recorded guitarists in his current role as a studio musician, working primarily in the advertising markets.
Chris' playing can be heard daily on local, and in some cases , nation-wide on rock radio station's commercial ads and on various recordings for portland / seattle area musicians in a variety of genres.
never being one to sit still , Chris continues to write and record original music as the whim strikes him, having several recordings in rotation on internet / college radio stations and both teaching AND continuing to learn the art of music , having many regular students and himself having studied with such great Vocal and Guitar masters such as , Oscar demio ,some of the great staff from GIT and most recently, guitar virtuoso Rusty Cooley.

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David

what impresses me most about your music, is that you try to infuse your arrangements with as much creativity as you can, conscious of the fact that you have to at least sound dynamic with each track. looking forward for your new song, music and compositions, that i can't enough of rock. and goodluck on the pre-production of your new full length disc. more power!
your music is relentless, phenomenal, goddamn amazing that it rocks twice the greatness. i found myself under its spell, definitely worth listening to.
Thank you for the freindship,it..s much appreciated.Great stuff.Masters of Hate is awesome and also smashing playing in Etyde in D monic minor.King regards from Finland.!!!-Jussi-
