Other projects include: -Shadow Cast [Instrument: Bass] (my primary band from 2003-2008, was my main music focus) -Shame [Instrument: Bass] (the first band I was in, which we later took members from and fused with the first incarnation of Shadow Cast) -Mephitic Miasma [Instruments: Bass, Guitar, Drums, Keyboards] (my internet-music project with my good buddy, Jacob Lacy a.k.a. Reaper Of Hate) -Preserved Moose [Instruments: Bass, Guitar, Drums, Keyboards] (my internet-music project with Mike Morgado) -Lords of The Eternal Annulment of Continuance [Instruments: Bass, Guitar, Drums, Keyboards] (the result of the fusing of Mephitic Miasma with Preserved Moose with a new additions, GuitarBizarre) -A New Cover Band [Instrument: Guitar] (hasn't started yet, been planning it out for a while, line-up will hopefully consist of my fellow Shadow Cast bandmates, Travis Moberg and John Wilkins, doing Vocals and Guitar/Keyboards, respectively, with buddies Nick Layne and Ricky Shine, hitting up Drums and Bass, respectively. We will covering bands such as Muse, A Perfect Circle, Ill Niño, Breaking Benjamin, Incubus, Dream Theater and Megadeth.
