just celebrated 20 years of End of Silence as well as the final performance with their original singer Michael Barnes, so I thought it was perfect timing for this one. I had this in the background for about 3 years now but only felt confident enough in my mixing skills. All guitar, bass and drumming is re-created from scratch.

A cover 4 years in the making. As soon as I had my first listen to Scoring the End of the World I was shook when I heard “Sign of Life”, it was the perfect blend of what I love about Motionless with bits of Breaking Benjamin. A few years later, getting a guitar very similar to Ryan Sitkowski and figuring out their tone and here we are!!! Don’t worry, I’ll be getting to songs from Decades once the full album is out

Testing out some presets on my Quad Cortex and decided to do “Lost” as a cover. When it came out for Meteora’s 20th anniversary it was so impactful at the time; it felt like hearing from an old friend again. It grabbed my attention until Linkin Park dropped “Fighting Myself”. I can’t believe they had these bangers locked in a vault
