This Soundclick page is used for posting rough mixes, outtakes and other projects un-related to my current band, Artists of War. I have played guitar since I was 14 years-old and have gone through a slew of influences. The most predominant has been Black Sabbath. My current fetish has been progressive metal ala Tool and Mastodon. Some might call this "art metal," and I would agree with that moniker as well. I consider what I do to be more akin to art than performance music. During my third year of college, I decided to officially release my work as a physical CD. "Artists of War" was the result of this. The album was released on March 25 via Tricalibur Records through CDBaby. You can visit my website, , for the most recent band news. The CD is available from , direct from me via the band website, or search for it in iTunes, Amazon and other online retailers.

Story behind the song
The song is inspired by stoner rock bands like Sleep, Electric Wizard, High on Fire (if you consider them to be stoner rock). Lyrically it is based off the theory that life originated on Mars and migrated to Earth after a huge catastrophe wiped out pre-existing civilization. This is seen through the eyes of the story's main character, the stoner who tries to tell the rest of the world about his vision only to find that the rest of humanity is to skeptical to realize the truth in his words.
Lyrics
Ultimate Stoner - A Still Talking Head By Brad Olsen Blasted cities Ancient Dwellings They don’t fear the fire that burns Pagan warlords Wielding their swords Following the prophet who lies One man speaks of the end of races To an alien species, judgment is served Centipede people get what they deserve Children drowning All around me Swallowed by their ever-greed Smoke comes down now Cleans the newborn Rise out of dirt, populace fall Stoner sits and watches with open eye Sees all the hatred through its cool disguise He waits ‘til the men in white will heal his burn Darkened point inside this eclipse Chilled with blackness holds the soul within Turns the savior into a husk Turn to the newborn seeking a new dawn Wasting planet stone floats endlessly Wanders through time in search of infinity Surface holds key to lock of genes Actually good though evil it may seem Wait for no one run as fast as they might Caught by waves of furious vengeance strike Learn from them our undying past Mustn’t repeat in case of being the last Into mind travel ‘til the end of burn His brain knows what ours may never learn We will survive though his visions have told us less
