Description: A Progressive Rock project of mine that existed from 1990-1997. Songs from this album were recorded in 1991, 1992 and 1995-1997.

For fans who are wondering why we reposted this, this is music by XCranium, a progressive rock band that Dean De Benedictis was a member of in the 90s. He played all the keyboard/synth stuff. Dean had always planned on releasing it himself as a full album on his label, but he never got around to it. So the guitar player, Phil Williams, finally started this Soundcloud page for XCranium as well as his other projects.

06 X Oblivion

They gather, at the monument
To which they kneel
Lurching, to extinction
With a righteous zeal
The flaws in human nature
Well, they reveal
They need to take us all along 
A road to hell
To whence we shall dwell
To a self-made cell
Where guards are for sale
Minds are for sale

They never heard an echoing 
That was not right
For the endless explanations
For the ghosts, they fight
The chains about their ankles
Never come to sight
They endlessly proclaim the glory
And the might
That always makes right
With shock and awe delight
In resounding chorus
Of compliance

As they fall in line for lie

With Idols
Of gold
To powers
Untold
It's the ultimate sign
Of a cults bloodline
Of the poisoned well
Of the loathing they sell
For powers
Untold
In rot

Lie, March
Lie, March

The towers, of duplicity
They lust to climb
The invincible, mental children
Of reality denied
A farcical recital
Of the outrage high
Abysmal false creations ruling
Captive minds
Impeding our kind
To fester in decline

Let this drift away
Let this die in vain

As they fall in line for lie

With Idols
Of gold
To powers
Untold
It's the ultimate sign
Of a cults bloodline
Of the poisoned well
Of the loathing they sell
For powers
Untold
In rot

Lurching to Extinction

The animals have something to say about all this...

Sewer Beast

I wrote this song in 1986 for my first real band Phantasm. I thought I would challenge myself to record it now after all those years. Needs the vocals on it for sure.

Pray For Power

I wrote this song in 1986 when I was 16, slapped a fresh coat of paint on it, really needs the vocals added, maybe later.

Depression Device

Originally written in 1986 by Phantasm. I slapped a new coat of paint on it and hopefully some vocals very soon.

Blown To Oblivion

Bridge Demo 1989 Song 4

Press the record button and just play something you never played before, in fact, something you just make up as you go.

Bridge Demo 1989 Impromptu Jam

An intro that never made it where it was meant to be.

I am a guitar player that is slowly sharing songs old and new.
