My 2nd Beatles cover. This one was a bitch to get to come together... but I guess I'm pretty happy with how it finally came out. I nixed the opening vocals & opted for a heavier guitar intro. I also added a little "solo" after the 2nd chorus that isn't in the Beatles song. Anyway... here's another Beatles cover that translates into grunge/punk rather well. Drums are by Arnaud Krakowka & all other instruments & vocals are by me... enjoy!

Help! (Beatles Cover 2023)

Reflection of Pain

A Useless Life

After Life

I ruin everything

I died that day

Ashes

Pale, Motionless, Bleeding...

Destroyer Of Lives

Abyss Of Isolation

a shattered illusion
tearing my soul apart

the hours i've wasted
became days, became weeks
life is too long, too empty
yet i'm still a burden

and now, here i lay alone
feeling the cut in my arm
what have i done?

what have i done?
what have i done?
i can see my own blood
under the shining moon

my own blood

Another new song I just started working on! I uploaded this massive "test" to see if I am liking the direction it's headed. I still don't have the entire composition worked out & I tend to have too many ideas sometimes that it turns the songs into a muddy mess. BUT... I kinda want this one to be a bit sludgy! It's played in D standard for that reason (basically Drop C without "dropping" the fat string!) & with the direction it is going.... many guitars, distorted bass, reverbed drums.... I wanted to upload something to test if it's gonna sound like shit or if I will hopefully dig it! While it is "post-rockish", I did have some ideas lyrically. We shall see where this goes...

And It's All Because Of You (2025) TEST

I have played guitar since the age of 14 (around 1990 give or take) & I still play to this day... only now instead of playing live or seeking to be in a band, I record my own music at home! I use Audacity software (free!) & basically use a mic to record my guitars, bass & vocals through my various guitar amps. Drums I "program" by downloading tracks from youtube & chopping them up to suit my needs. I write my own music as well as record covers. I'm not a singer & all of my vocals are achieved by doing multiple vocal tracks to create a harmony that is otherwise lacking. Sometimes the results are ok, sometimes it sucks. Either way, making music & taking care of my cats are the 2 main reasons I am on this Earth. I hope you enjoy some of my stuff!
