The whole project was all in fun. That was the point of it. Nothing more, nothing less...it was really an eight year experiment and an introduction to computers. However, I've often been called heavy, angry, nihlistic, and hardcore. I guess it depends on which end of the battery you got wired to your brain. Bright and happy just doesn't move me like distortion and pounding drums! I also get insect comparisons a lot. WTF is up with that?
Band/artist history
Neurospasm was a one man art and music project that started in October of 1999....when I got my first computer. Nothing too serious but serious enough to garner some small acclaim for a short time. I got lucky...for a while. Then I got tired of guitar samples and started to learn how to play guitar. I'm still learning and experimenting with different pickups, amps, and efx. I killed Neurospasm last year after discovering another band had some work out on vinyl under that title. Prior to this project I have been a drummer for several bands and a screamer / programmer for several metal / thrash projects such as Black Lash and Morbid Son. Ah, nostalgia...
