Besides being funny, hyper and sometimes just plain weird, Rene is the rhythmic backbone of Dark. His thundering rhythm on Silence made the song what it is. I've seen him play a variety of styles with equally great results, so I couldnt say what his strongest style is. Some of his musical influences include Pantera, Metallica, Megadeth, and alot of 80's stuff like WASP.
Rene joined Dark in late May of 97, replacing Jose who had been transfered. Surprisingly enough he caught on quickly and learned all the songs we had set to play. Unfortunately the old Dark broke up after the next show, so to date he has only played live with Dark once.
