I do a lot of what I refer to as musical experiments. Occasionally, if I find them to be of some interest, I will post them here. This is something that was kicking around for a while, but came together rather quickly once I sat down and did it. I believe my good friend [...]
Title: “Calm down and tell me again.” Year: Various Personnel: It’s pretty much just me and a guitar. Analysis: This is my attempt to jump on the acoustic bandwagon. I really feel like it’s a one way ticket to the big time. Seriously though, a fair number of All Hallow’s Evil tracks were written and [...]
I love the Alice Cooper Group. I think the albums they made represent the point when rock and roll peaked as an artform. So it’s only fitting that I would take something I love so much and try and destroy it. The We’re Going to Die, Then We’re Going to Hell ep was supposed [...]
Believe it or not, I used to have what some people would term as an anger problem (some people might say I still have it, but those people are fucking assholes). In fact, a lot of All Hallow’s Evil music is the result of me trying to channel that anger somewhere. I suppose this song [...]
Title: What Prayers Cannot Heal Year: 2011 Personnel: No changes worth noting. Analysis: This is some of the most aggressive music I’ve made in a while, though it’s still pretty melodic as well. It’s still too new to really talk about with any form of distance, but I think it says something that the working [...]
Title: Under Dead Stars Year: 2010 Personnel: Nothing out of the ordinary. Analysis: Between With Regrets… and this album, a lot of real life things happened, so I gave up making music for a decent amount of time. I did occasionally make some sketches from time to time, but nothing worth talking about. Then, at [...]
Title: The Zombie EP (v. 2009) Year: 2009 (who could’ve expected that?) Personnel: Thomas Forbes joined in on backing for “Somberly…” and “Sanctuary…”. Analysis: This is mostly based on the live arrangement of The Zombie EP, though the slower tempo in “Transgression Resurrection” comes from the acoustic version. I stripped away a lot of the [...]
Title: Knowing Then What We Know Now Year: 2009 Personnel: I did a lot of this, but Thomas Forbes plays bass on “Cold Taste…”. Analysis: Here’s my take a few songs that I should have gotten right the first time. This is probably the best introduction to All Hallow’s Evil, as it covers a lot [...]
Title: With Regrets Year: 2008 Personnel: Analysis: After This Faustian Flesh it was hard to figure out where to go. Combine that with the fact that we actually did a fair number of live performances and it took a long time to get this one out. Influenced by Hypocrisy’s “The Arrival”, this album is mostly [...]
Title: This Faustian Flesh Year: 2006 Personnel: It’s me and BFD, though the cover photograph was taken by Heather McPhaul and Andy Forbes put it together. Analysis: This is a 28-minute piece broken down into 7 parts. It’s based on the various tellings of Faust and probably just as pretentious as all that sounds. But, [...]
