Again (why not)

"Shadows of Fury" represents another evolution in my AI-powered instrumental journey, featuring an unexpected but powerful combination - electric guitar and 6-string electric violin working together to create something truly cinematic. Rather than competing against each other, these instruments form a dramatic alliance where each brings its own strengths to build an emotional arc over nearly five minutes.

The track unfolds like a film score, with the guitar providing the structural foundation and rhythmic power while the violin serves as the emotional voice soaring above. From the atmospheric intro where clean guitar arpeggios set the mood and the violin enters with haunting sustained notes, the piece builds through distinct phases - sometimes the guitar dominates with palm-muted chugging and aggressive riffs, other times the violin takes center stage with tremolo runs, glissandi, and those screaming high notes that cut through the mix like a metal vocalist.
What makes this track special is how the instruments complement rather than compete. The guitar grounds everything with power chords and rhythmic drive, while the 6-string electric violin explores the full emotional spectrum - from lyrical melodic passages to frantic rapid-fire bowing that matches the guitar's intensity. The violin's extended range allows it to harmonize with the guitar in the lower registers while still reaching those soaring heights that define the track's most dramatic moments.

The climactic sections showcase both instruments at peak intensity, creating massive walls of sound where the violin's sustained vibrato rides over the guitar's relentless assault. By the outro, the violin carries the final emotional weight with haunting sustains while the guitar resolves to clean tones, ending the journey where it began - in atmospheric shadows.

Working with AI to orchestrate this blend was incredible because I could layer these contrasting textures exactly as I heard them - the percussive attack of the guitar balanced by the violin's expressive sustain, creating something that feels both heavy and cinematic. "Shadows of Fury" proves that metal instrumentals can be about emotional storytelling, not just technical showmanship.

TRUTH

Doom- Sick With Society

NAUSEA is one of the most influential New York City punk bands ever. Among the first bands to combine raw punk, metal and intense socio-political lyrics, creating a style often imitated but rarely equaled. Dual female/male vocalists trade off over a ferocious musical backdrop that found its way into the sound of bands like NEUROSIS, LOGICAL NONSENSE and ANTISCHISM, to bands of today like KYLESA, SKARP and LEFTOVER CRACK. “The Punk Terrorist Anthology Vol. II 1986-1988” collects 30 NAUSEA tracks including several live, unreleased and demo tracks and classic songs like ‘Smash Racism’, ‘Clutches’ (recently covered by KYLESA) and ‘Godless’, which are as relevant today as when they were recorded nearly two decades ago. This is the first of several Black Noise Records releases to be released in cooperation with Alternative Tentacles.
