This project was/is titled “The Oneness Of Calls” and regarding "FOREVER (NEVER) CHERISHED" (first full length album intended) the launch date is currently debatable, if/when it (even/ever) exists. I was looking for a female vocalist to contribute although I intended on doing vocals myself too. It would('ve) (potentially) involve(d) screaming/singing from myself and whoever I found to sing with if we did it as I would('ve) prefer(red) a female who can scream as well as sing. This is/was the track list for the first album that was intended which I titled "FOREVER (NEVER) CHERISHED” (although I only ever wrote 3 tracks for it and never recorded them)...
