The bands, musicians, and devoted followers of metallic and all its sub-genres have been the pioneers of bizarre and creepy, and that is what makes this tradition extremely distinctive in a world of normalcy. Penning this album was my private testomony that I can push myself to limits I all the time knew existed each musically and creatively. This album wasn’t a lot a discovery of myself however extra so a affirmation that I might go to a spot inside myself that was buried. I lastly pushed myself to uncover this aspect of me.

Working with my staff of gifted creatives who facilitated and executed my imaginative and prescient right down to the precise particulars was invigorating and rewarding in a method I might by no means have imagined. I’m deeply and profoundly grateful to all of them.”

Among the many featured tracks on the album is a canopy of Acid Bathtub‘s “The Bones Of Child Dolls“.
