That's right, this is my first track recorded on a 7-string guitar, so I reserve the right to label it as djent. Everyone CALM DOWN. It's mostly what you're used to... just lower (aka better).

I thought the 7-string would take over everything, but I was kinda wrong... playing power chords with the lowest string sounds a bit muddy. So if I don't want that super low "riff string", I honestly might still pick up the 6-string 'cause I feel like it's easier to power chord on.

Anyway, I spent a little over a week on this track off and on, getting used to the new guitar and adjusting the mix... I hope it turned out ok and that you guys enjoy it! Until next time \m/

Flesh And Blood (Instrumental)

A selection of original Death metal songs written for seven string guitar.

Wallow In Waste

Subhuman

Skeptic

Nihilist

Genetic Enemy

Cathedral Of Derangement

"Paciente" was composed to be dedicated to my friend Gabriel Deodato (7-string guitar player). It is simple, short, and objective.
This piece showcases a bit of traditional Brazilian music, albeit with some harmonic modernity that deviates from the traditional.

Paciente

just another demo in the works. kinda sounds familiar might scrap  later

Its Raining

Using Audio Assault's new snapshot player, their included rectofire preset.

Pitiful, lifeless grains of my last life
Shamelessly hanging in threads in my own mind
Pitiful, lifeless grains of my last life
Shamelessly hanging in threads in my own mind

Displeasure, misendeavor
Miserable pieces of scum
Surrounding, consuming
Every little part of me
These activities that used to bring me light
Only further destroy my piece of mind
Trying to climb up this wall of sullen remains
And can only descend before any refinement is made

Pitiful, lifeless grains of my last life
Shamelessly hanging in threads in my own mind
Pitiful, lifeless grains of my last life
Shamelessly hanging in threads in my own mind

All I can see is death
When my vision’s intact
But my mental is shattered 
I stare into the depths
When the void is consuming
The joy I’m refusing 
There’s nothing, nothing to say
When I can’t find happiness around me
Nothing, nothing’s the same
As it ever once was

I can’t seem to find the line
Between the other side, where everything is fine
Nothing seems to hit the same
Am I the one to blame?
I can’t seem to find the line
Between the other side, where everything is fine
Nothing seems to hit the same
Am I the one to blame?

Silhouettes of Silo

Anhedonian Complex

Plagued to death, lay to rest
Hope you rot in hell
Feel the weight of the world 
Come and crashing down
Feel your bones crack about
In the dirt you lay 
In this coldness of death
Right beneath my feet

It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)
It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)
It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)
It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)

An enigma that’s mystery remains
When it takes forms of everything 
Blood pumps, but you see no face
When it leads you to your resting place
Appears to be not beast or human
Appears to be not beast or human

You coward
It’s the aura of death
You coward
It’s the aura of death

Plagued to death, lay to rest
Hope you rot in hell
Feel the weight of the world 
Come and crashing down
Feel your bones crack about
In the dirt you lay 
In this coldness of death
Right beneath my feet

It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)
It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)
It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)
It’s killed or be killed
(In this air we breathe)

Insolitus / Killing Time

I am a Death Metal guitarist, currently working on my own project under the alias God Was Silent.

A Deathcore band that has Groove Metal influences to make “Death Groove” with some elements of Doom / Sludge Metal

"I saw a glassy-eyed angel hovering over-top of us, playing her sweet and loving music that sounded like noise, wondering why we wouldn't accept our humanity."

My primary focus is on trying to improve at expressing myself through pure music. No words to introduce unnecessary bias and confusion; just dark instrumentals and melodies.

Composer, Arranger, Music producer, Music professor

I got involved with music at a very young age. I started playing trumpet in the elementary school band and my love for music grew from there. Some of my earliest memories are sitting with my grandpa at the piano and learning about the grand staff while watching him play. At the age of 10 I got my first guitar for Christmas and totally fell in love with. Over the years I picked up various other instruments i.e. drums, bass, synths, other assorted stringed instruments and put myself through audio engineering school. My tastes vary from hardcore metal to slow and melodic EDM and my think my portfolio of work shows that. I write, record, and mix out of a modest home studio with all the necessities for a good productive session. Im always looking to network and jam with other musicians just hit me up!!
