A different type of post…

This is way off topic, but as a personal aside, I wanted to post my fundraising link. I have Lyme Disease and it’s really been difficult, even just existing at times. If you feel anyone would react, please share this link so I can continue treatment! Thank you! Please help me with my battle with Lyme

Interview: Jamie van Dyck of Earthside

Interview: Jamie van Dyck of Earthside

Over the course of a year, I had the privilege to interview guitarist/composer Jamie van Dyck of cinematic rock band Earthside. Finally, the talk that took place over several tours and schedule conflicts is up over at PureGrainAudio. Please check it out here. And if you need a refresher on this remarkable genre-bending quartet, head on over to their YouTube channel.

Review: I AM – Life Through Torment

Review: I AM – Life Through Torment

Review of first full-length album from death metal/death core band I AM over at PureGrainAudio. Click the pic or the link below for more! Summary: Having been (and still going) through some pretty tough times recently, I certainly can relate to the term “torment” and, lemme tell ya, it’s not a journey you wanna be involved with for ANY length of time. Unless we’re talking about torment as it…

Review: This Will Destroy You – Young Mountain (10th Anniversary Edition​)​

Review of latest from This Will Destroy You – their re-issue of the debut “Young Mountain” at PureGrainAudio. Click the pic or the link below for more. Summary: Having only heard a couple tracks from newer albums previous to this review, I’m new to this band for the most part.

Review: Red Sun Rising – Polyester Zeal

My latest review over at PureGrainAudio. Alternative rock goodness. Summary: Take the memorable vocal and guitar melodies, anthemic choruses and occasional grit of the 1990s and filter it through fresh eyes of promising new alternative rock quintet Red Sun Rising and you get 2016’s Polyester Zeal, whose breakout single “The Otherside” gained mass appeal in late 2015….

A thing I did… Experimenting with texture, as it's a type of art I really like.

Progress on painting of Joe Duplantier Working on another painting of the guys from Gojira, but only Joe this time. Slowly coming along. (And don't forget, these guys are on tour, motherfuckers!)

Review: Katatonia's "The Fall of Hearts"

Review: Katatonia’s “The Fall of Hearts”

Now celebrating a quarter of a century as a band, the eminent purveyors of doom-tinged rock and metal, grace us with yet another masterfully crafted diverse assortment of plaintive prose, set to their trademark mix of haunting melodies and driving riffs.
