ABOUT

I'm a musician and songwriter primarily working within the (black/death) metal genre, but I'm also very open to other endeavours along the lines of alternative, post-rock, or goth. I have a day job, but I love to play music and I'm eager to share my ideas and collaborate with anyone interested in playing sad, angry, and/or generally angsty tunes. I play electric guitar primarily and I'm able to do harsh vocals decently well. I have limited experience performing or being in a band, but I think I offer a lot in the way of writing ability and dedication to my art.
