Hooks of the Mantis

I am a lone recording artist with the intention of delivering hard-hitting, intense music in the rock/metal genre. I tend to favor odd-time in my songs but try to always give it a 4/4 feel when possible so as not to sound so technical that it becomes confusing. The music is guitar driven as that is my main songwriting tool and the vocals are mostly melodic with a harsh attitudinal vibe. So far the lyrics are cryptic and dark but I'm interested in pushing the envelope in order to stay out of common metal cliches. I am not a drummer so for now, the drums are composed in various software programs.
