This mix of classic rock sounds and anthems in some parts is a musical treat to the eardrums-Valentine is a strong ballad with almost haunting vocals. Great guitar work throughout this album of a man that clearly has a gift for music.
My Darkest Dream has to be my favorite track on this album, with a real cool riff from the guitars & great baseline, kick ass drums and vocals deep and brooding.
These lyrics from the song:
"Clawing, tearing, screaming, scratching, ripping through my skin."
The sounds vary throughout this album where some tracks venture off into their own universe, others pull you right in and capture your thoughts and take you away from yourself.
Deceit has some need mixes of different sounds throughout
blended with a great beat.
Deviant Rein is a ballad of sorts starting off with the sound
of the the ocean & someone sobbing the guitar starts its riff
that will fill the song throughout, great range of vocals on
this one.
He has done a great job with the Johnny Cash song Hurt he
also covers Veteran of the Physic Wars by Blue Oyster Cult.
Both really good cover songs the later is a bonus track.
So he clearly is a fan of music in general covering such a
range of artists and his own as well, he is deserving of your
respect.
Thanks for reading this

Christopher Compton remains a mystery his face is not
anywhere to be found-I guess this being is he wants his
music to speak for itself, I like that.
