Antares (US)

This is basically the continuation of work that was started in Praedabundus, before it became a full band. Entirely concocted by Ben Morse, these albums are stories from an unsettled mind. Both disturbing and intriguing, the music is highly atmospheric, attempting to bring out the fullest of emotion in the listener.

Antares began as Praedabundus, a solo project made up of just Ben recording bass, drums, and singing. Prae turned into a band, gaining members Kevin and Don, yet Ben continued his solo recordings under the new guise, Antares. Eventually, Antares concieved a concept album, The Awakening, in 2007. Recently Ben has produced a second concept album, Eternal Abyss, in 2008. Both albums follow a single storyline taking place in the same world.

I haven't, as of yet, performed any of this music live, but am looking for musicians who enjoy my music enough to learn it and play it on stage.

Avenged sevenfold, Nine Inch Nails, The Gorillaz, The Emperor, Amon Amarth, Symphony X, Kamelot, A.F.I., Fields of the Nephilim, Amorphis, Finntrol, Cradle of Filth, Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Operation Ivy, Primus, and many more.

Becka(Squire J-Bass), Joseph Stalin(Fender P-Bass), Voltaire(Some random six string electric guitar), Crate 200W Bass Amp, Screaming Blues Digitech distortion/overdrive pedal, Fruityloops 3.4, Acid Pro 6.0.

I like long walks on the beach and dinner by candlelight.
