Mercy Killing Mercy Killing
My shot at writing a "love song". LOL The solo is a tribute to metal guitar gods Jake E. Lee, George Lynch, and of course...Dimebag.
Letters From The End Letters From The End
Although while growing up, I was highly influenced by early doom bands such as Celtic Frost, and Trouble, I never really went past that . Here we are over 20 years later, and this is my first shot at writing and recording a Doom Metal song
The Last Procession / Hypocricy The Last Procession / Hypocricy
The Last Procession is a short instrumental, was written after waking from a dream of being in the desert and being told to kneel face down as the procession passes. I wrote Hypocricy after listeming to two old ladies complain about everything!
Slip Away Slip Away
Temptation of being drawn back into drugs. It was my true love at the time. Trying to actually sing on this one instead of growling and screaming as on the rest of my songs. LOL
Aqualung Aqualung
My interpretation of Jethro Tulls Aqualung. I took a few liberties with this song. I hope you can dig it.
Hiding in my room blues Hiding in my room blues
Took some licks from just some of the great guitar players that have influenced my playing (Jimi, Stevie, Eric, Carlos, Leslie West among others) , and expanded on them a bit as a tribute to my idols.
Enter The Beatnik Enter The Beatnik
Somthing different as I experiment with midi and virtual instruments for the first time. I strayed away from my metal roots on this song and tried some jazz.
Wildflower (Cover) Wildflower (Cover)
My interpretation of Skylarks 1972 classic - Wildflower. One of my all time favorites.
Cherub Rock (Cover) Cherub Rock (Cover)
My experimental shot at my favorite Smashing Pumpkins song. That wall of guitar fuzz is just so hard to emulate and Billy Corgans cool whiny rasp is somthing I just cant do, but I gave it a shot. LOL
Lizzy Please Lizzy Please
A song about Lizzy Borden. This was done as sort of a tribute to mid 80s / early 90s underground metal mixed with some hardcore.
wah-wah-what the funk wah-wah-what the funk
Funky groovecore instrumental because i have writers block for lyrics at the moment.
Bloodcry Bloodcry
Tormented Tormented
Jimi Dont Eat That Chili Pepper Jimi Dont Eat That Chili Pepper
A tribute to a couple of my many infliences. Jimi Hendrix and John Frusciante. Just decided to have some fun playing music that I enjoy.
Trying to kill Trying to kill
I always wondered what goes on in the mind of serial killers. Do they wrestle their concience when they are about to kill? It also reflects me wrestling my concience when I contemplate suicide.
