Sorry for my absence guys, been honing skills and culminating ideas to unite my Blaakk stuff and @retrax stuff into a single Blaakk, so I should be on here a more often again. ;)

Deftones - Diamond Eyes (Blaakk's Vocal Cover)

I'd love to re-use a lot of the elements from this too. And add vocals. I think bringing some industrial vibes in would be a good thing. 

Knifed at Birth - Undecided (Instrumental - 128kbps - 2006)

Screaming for vocals! I love the end of this track.

Knifed at Birth - Driver (My first metal track - 128 kbps - 2005)

VERY System of a Down influenced track. My 2nd track, if I remember correctly.

Knifed at Birth - Voiceless Gandalf (Instrumental - 128 kbps - 2005)

Yet another extremely SOAD influenced track. This was the last track I made under the 'Knifed at Birth' moniker. 

Knifed at Birth - Never (Instrumental - 128kbps - 2007)

I'll be searching myself, but if anybody knows an awesome female vocalist whose voice you think would fit this track like a dream, I'd be grateful if you could let me know.

Hope (A quality 'Light Industrial' track crying out for a female collaborator).

Did this a few years back. Thought I'd share.

Never Again

Found this in my Dropbox, which I hadn't been in since 2010.

Reethym - (Previously forgotten about ideas, which I quite like!)

17/04/13: A schizophrenic vocal section added. And other minor alterations.
16/04/13: Lots more added. Core song structure done, but still lots more to do.
25/03/13: Added bass, and adjusted the arrangement slightly. Still tons of guitar work to do.
22/03/13: Filled in other guitar bits. Very happy with how this is coming along.

LYRICS:

Like an animal in a cage.
Only this has walls and I can't see through them.
The FEAR. The FEAR.
I can feel it. (Feel it. Feel it.) Feel it.
Holding me down to the floor.
Melting mind.

Need to fix this.
Broken cycle and,
Recover my sanity.
It's been so long.
It's been too long.

(Screams) Over and over and over again.

Now I'll see each moment as an opportunity.
It didn't seem to matter then, but now I'm 33.
We're going in the same direction as entropy.
(You'd better make a change)

Yes! Let's change this!
'Cause I've seen the light!
I'm taking back the night!

_____________

Hey! How dare you!
Interfere with the holy and the divine?
And for what?
We get nothing. Nothing!
Nothing but disrespect!

Day and night are divided.
Why don't you leave things along.
Oh, you will pay for biting the hand that feeds!

How much more!? x4

I am taking back the night from you!
I am taking back the night from you!
Fucking thief! (Welcome the circadian)
(It's) Time to live this life with one less fucking disease.

Circadian Disrespect - Update #5

Music by @ventra. Lyrics & Logo by Myk Morson. We are working on many more tracks, albeit quite slowly due to conflicting schedules.   

Time is of the essence, 
Through the haze I realise freedom is dead. 

The signs of destruction are infinite, 
Bent information through screens and soundwaves. 
Do you feel ran into the grave? 
This is not how life should be, 
What will it take to make you see?

This distorted life you think you lead, 
Everything around you oozes deceit, 
Insignificant, 
Unless you obey. 
I guess its easier that way.

Blissfully enslaved, 
Life long monotony, 
What will it take to make you see?

Your path - already paved, 
Slave away until you leave, 
There is no such thing as free.

In this plight, 
You cant believe anything. 
Thers a disguise. 
Blinded by lies, 
We fall.

We're living on time thats borrowed, 
Taking away our tomorrow.

Ventra - Cease (1st Track/Demo)

Music by @ventra. Production by @blaakk. Lyrics & Logo by Myk Morson. We are working on many more tracks, albeit quite slowly due to conflicting schedules.

Point sunlight towards me. 
Shadowed by hierarchy. 
Bodies are hollow, a soul is the key.

All that's left is a mangled vessel.

I will come at you with every belief. 
Time is forever, ours comes eventually. 
Chip away the pyramids obscenity. 
Trample the poison seeds.
It's past us by, we're a set mold. 
We stand in line as it unfolds.

Just one slip and we're onto you snake. 
Brand us at our birth, the product of your factory. 
Instructions attached to our bodies. 
All they say is sleep.

Withered soul from a life below. 
Let the bloodshed flow. 
We're going to hell. 
Aren't we all?

Our horizon starts to burn. 
Know only what we're told to learn. 
Streets paved with bodies our soul has set sail. 
Relieved of hope, from below we hail.

Our lives are defiled, 
So paint yourself a smile. 
We'll be gone before our time, 
But not without warning.

Bitter and twisted, stuck in this endeavor. 
If this is us, then this is all forever.

Our lives are defiled, 
So paint yourself a smile. 
We'll be gone before our time, 
But not without warning.
Take from us, you may try. 
Use the fear. Keep us in line. 
It's not yours to take this time.

Ventra - A life below

06/06/13 - Extended a little, and added some guitar ideas, and synth. Re-recorded some vox, but still wayyyy off. :)

SHOO! - (W.I.P. Update #2)

Disturbed by the memories, 
From a time with minimal reasoning. 
Every word still so familiar. 
Locked deep in my mind. Forever.

Still mind-raping me. 
A tiring subliminal assault on my brain. 
I'm trying hard not to let these thoughts breed, 
But in no way are you helping me. 
GET OUT OF MY HEAD!

Such ugly vibrations. 
Now I read between the poison lines. 
Disguising your twisted agenda, 
With your boom, boom, boom. 
And it goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on.

Stop mind-raping me. 
Unwelcome synapse formation with every replay. 
The lab-rats follow, taking the bait, blind to the obvious.
These are not 'love hertz'. 
GET OUT OF MY FUCKING HEAD.

Please go away 
You're welcome no more. 
Just go away.
Leave. Just leave. Leave. Just leave. JUST LEAVE.

Love Hertz? - a "NON WIP" track ;-D (2011)

I'm currently working on a solo metal project (Cognitive Dissonance), and a few other bits and bobs. Sticking to a single genre/sub-genre is something I find impossible, however it's a fair to say the majority of my stuff falls either under the umbrella of 'Metal', or 'Electronic'. But as time goes on, the more inclined I am to experiment, and deliberately step out of my comfort zone. I'm totally open to collaborations, so if you like my vocals, or any of my instrumentation and would like me to work with you then hit me up!

"Cognitive Dissonance" is being shared, (at http://soundcloud.com/blaakk) as a W.I.P., mainly to help overcome my long-held perfectionist mindset, so please excuse any poor vocals, or any other instrumentation, gaps in parts, etc.

Blaakk
