MUSIC

Deathmore
Deathmore Year: 2019 Genre: Metal
A song idea I conjured up in 2019...killer!
-
Failure
Failure Year: 2010 Album: Acoustic Madness Genre: Acoustic
Wrote this song...about 2010 to acknowledge my own failings with my former band Solar Blue as I seriously let a CHICK interfere with the awesome band we had. Still, I hate myself for ruining that great band. Live and learn I guess.

A unique song. Written around 2010, but this recording ...and the Failure recordings were done in 2018 in my basement with Cakewalk.

Darkest Before Dawn
Darkest Before Dawn Year: 2019 Genre: Metal
A song idea I wrote around 2008, but this was recorded in 2019. Would make for a killer track on a heavy record.

This, as I call it, RUSH-ish idea would make for a pretty cool song if collaborated on with the right musicians.
