Apparition (ruff demo)

Ruff recording from on early practice. Though the first songs to be completed by theObvious were A Change in Dimension and Believe, Exhibit A was the first song written that did not include any music originally written for a previous band or project, making the true first song written by theObvious.

Exhibit A (ruff demo)

Ruff demo recorded at an early practice. Walk the Earth is one of the band's earlier ventures into progressive metal, mixing irregular meters with open note breakdowns, countering melody with dissonance, and introducing recurring themes darting in and out the pocket, creating a template for future songs like Area.

Walk the Earth (ruff demo)

Ruff demo recorded at an early practice. The most recently written at the time of this recording, Reciprocate is a groovy metal tune full of harmonics and dissonance. Written about peer pressure, Reciprocate is about the implied obligation to unwillingly participate in something simply because of social implications. To put it simpler, it's about accidentally entering into a smoking rotation and being exposed to cannabis for the first time. Reluctant to participate, the smoke itself begins to talk, convincing you of your obligation to smoke and be a part of what everyone else is already doing.

Born and raised in Norwalk, California. Grew up listening to metal, punk.. well everything really but mostly metal. Now I live in Denton, TX.
