Upon descent, a five piece metal band hailing from the west midlands "the home of heavy metal", are a very determined and driven self made band. Regularly you may find upon descent recording their own songs at their own studio, or rehearsing there intense adrenaline filled set. Usually alone or with the company of there many fans, whether it be over a few beers or full blown congregation of fans and metal lovers alike, the upon descent machine DOES NOT STOP! Never afraid to be off the wall, different and always pushing boundaries. Embraced or feared, this beast knows no limits.

They have played many gigs during the 4 years of being a band, released several ep's and never stop living what they see as there dream. The dream of constant writing, performing and unleashing the black matter aggression that is upon descent. Upon descent draw influences from old school bands such as, morbid angel, testament, Megadeth to newer bands such as, machine head, Sepultura, Alice in chains and even bands such as prodigy and nine inch nails. 

Upon descent are not one to claim anything so we leave it up to the listener to hear the individual and aggressive edged metal which combines down-right heaviness, to lighter melodies and lightning guitar work. Honest and powerful and unrelenting, upon descent aim for the throat and will reach the top

I started playing bass when I was 16 and played a bit of guitar on the side. Over time my love for guitar grew and grew and the opportunity became available to be full-time on guitar in my main project "Destroyed Beyond Belief". So at the ripe age of 26, I became a guitarist ;)
I love songwriting, its my drug, I cant stop. All I hope for is that my music affects someone somewhere in the world and makes them feel something.
As of 2014 I began writing heavily into film trailer music for my new project "Spiritus" which I have a huge passion for and you'll hear more of this throughout next year.

Last but not least more experimental music for my side project called Age Of Sorrow.
