When I first heard this song I immediately fell in love with Dream Theater and John Petrucci's pure genius on Images & Words. 

Glass Moon (Dream Theater Guitar Cover)

This is without a doubt one of the most challenging songs I've played. 

Octavarium

This track is very progressive throughout and I tried to make it fit into the theme of the album. 

A Bridge To Eternity

Wanted to show a different side to my playing as this was one of my first attempts at a power ballad in a sense.

Destiny Calling

Throwback to power metal and neoclassical metal

Eurothrash

This is one of the first songs I ever wrote and I wished I had been able to record this with vocals because the lyrics I wrote for this song are very powerful.

Crying For Dawn

One of the first neoclassical instrumentals I done and it really was just focusing on Phrygian dominant scale and throwing some sweep arpeggios. 

Fury

The Evil Within

Tribute to the fathers of neoclassical shred Ritchie Blackmore & Yngwie Malmsteen

Angel of Babylon

Kiss of the Vampire

A simple mid-tempo rocker that it isn't rooted in neoclassical as most of my songs are, it's more or less groove oriented. 

End of Days

I didn't realize that first upload I posted for Euothrash had horrible clipping issues. So, I wanted to post this version which sounds a lot cleaner and the tempo is actually a bit faster.

The Maestro is a heavy influence on this track

Into Valhalla

Solitude

Angel Falls

The Awakening

Innocence Faded

Blaze Of Glory

Best thrash metal band in the world is Testament! Metallica is good but they have had so many problems internally that it's affected their music and Testament instead of faltering have never flirted with being commercial.

More Than Meets The Eye

In the land down under known as Australia, insects, wild life and sea creatures are deadlier than any other continent in the world. It's only fitting that Ouroboros is a brutally heavy and technical band. This is by far their best song and absolute beast to play

Edifice Of Tyranny

Music has always been one of my greatest passions, the ability to have a blank canvas and create whatever masterpiece you want is a very powerful experience. You will notice that on some of the songs the recording quality isn't the best, but these songs were recorded over the course of years apart and my ability as a guitarist and composer grew vastly. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page and I hope you enjoy the music.
