I have added a brand new song titled "Haunting Destiny (Rest In Peace) to the songs section. This is one of my heavier songs, and is very reminiscent of sorta a mix of such bands as Metallica, Mastodon, Tool, and System of a Down....yet all that influence mixes together to create my own style. Most of the song is fairly fast paced, but does slow down a bit during the bridge, which is also constructed of a complex lead guitar solo and a very engaging overall "epic" sound.

I am hard at work on finishing recording my other songs. Actually, quite a few are finished as far as instrumentals go, I just have to add the vocals. Be sure to check back often, as I will keep this website updated with my progress, and will be adding new songs.

I have sang, recorded, and uploaded a vocal cover of Metallica's "Astronomy" (which is actually a cover itself). Check it out in the songs section.

I have recorded a vocal cover that I sang, which is a song called "N.I.B." by Black Sabbath. Check it out in the songs section.

I have updated the song "Torture". I have completely re-recorded the vocals and they have much more emotion in them, accompanied by nice harmonies as well. I have also improved the overall mix quite a bit.

Also, a new song has been added called "Internal Release". It is actually a Work-In-Progress that I had posted here under the title "Song 18 - Untitled", but I have created lyrics, recorded the vocals, and created the harmonies as well. Be sure to check out both of these songs in the songs section.

A new song yesterday, another new one today . When will it end? I have added a new song to the songs section, called "Defeat". This is a song I've had in the works for a while, and have finally recorded the vocals for it. The verses are very catchy, chorus is very melodic, and the bridge changes the mood deeply, and then back again. Be sure to check it out.

I've added yet another new song, titled "Eternal Insanity". This is a song that once again has its own style and feel. It has a lot of tool influence, with a bit of SOAD influence scattered into the chorus. Head on over to the songs section to check it out.

Another new song has been added, temporarily codenamed "Song 18 (Untitled)". Actually this is a song that was originally a rock cover of a Metal Gear Solid song that I created (which is also available on this site). However, I decided to transform the song into one of my own. While it still has a similar "feel" and structure as the original, it's now a completely new song. Check it out in the songs section. This is still a work in progress as far as the vocals go. The lyrics were completely made up off the top of my head and are there to give you an idea of how the song will end up. The final lyrics will be different.

I've added a new song to the songs section. This is a song I've started working on a couple years ago, and has undergone many changes to get to where it is now. It's mixed with heavy guitars, powerful drums, and deep emotion, layered with melodic vocals. You can definitely hear the System of a Down inspiration, though it keeps to its own style. Head over to the songs section to check it out.

Work on my album is progressing slow but surely. I have added a new song to the songs section. The vocals are basic right now, but will be improved on much more, though the instrumentals seem to be complete. It's just an idea of how the song is progressing so far.

I have added a new song to the songs section of the site. This is a song I just created today and is originally from the game Metal Gear Solid. However, I decided to give it a heavy rock sound, guitars and all. It's still a work in progress, but it sounds pretty good already.
