So, I finally decided to start putting my music out into the world. If people like it, great. If not, oh well.

So here's the links to my two sites surrounding such. Give a listen, let me know if you like it or not.

Youtube Channel:

The first 3 songs are all old demos, done about 10 years ago. However we (as in me and one buddy who helps out on tracks from time to time) are currently working on our first full album. The first single should be out in a few weeks. Its a Prog-Rock song very much in the style of King Crimson.

That Walks Alone song sounds a lot like The Jesus and Mary Chain material. Not sure if you are familiar with the band...

Specifically Psycho Candy (Psychocandy). This is meant to be a compliment as this is one of my favorite bands ever.

It's eerily strange how you sound exactly like them vocally (and musically); if that is you singing...

Forgive me for reposting one of your songs, but for comparison:

It's hard not to see this as a new tJaMC song seriously.

Also my favorite tJaMC song: Wink

Go for more tJaMC stuff please.

Thanks for the compliment. Yeah, that was me singing.

Before listening to your links, I have only ever heard on Jesus and Mary Chain song, because it was on a grunge compilation CD that I purchased years ago, because it had a previously unreleased Nirvana track on it, which was my favorite band back then. (This was probably around 1992-1993.)

I dig them. They kind of remind me of old Pixies songs.

Oh the Pixies. Another of my favorites. Surfa Rosa...

Mix in some Captian Beffheart too. Why not?

Also, Kurt Cobain was heavily influenced by The Jesus and Mary Chain and the Pixies. Not really much of a Nirvana fan unfortunately. He was extremely talented, just not my thing. Then there's the Velvet Underground, a band who never missed its mark IMO.

I am now globally selling my 4 song EP. It's on Amazon, Google Play, Loudr.Fm, Pandora, and iTunes!

Pretty exciting.

I threw up 5 covers and 1 new song I've been playing around with on Soundcloud. Check them out:

(I also changed my solo band name to "Syndicate of Me", which was a solo band name I used back in High School.)

Threw it in my To Listen crate and will try to check it out this week!

Finally got around to checking these out. I have to admit the Spin Me Round didn't click with me, but these are pretty good! What equipment are you rolling?

Also, ha HA!

at the album title.

Sorry, I momentarily disappeared from reality.

I use:
Kerry King BC Rich Warlock
Gibson SG
Fender Jaguar Bass
Peavey Vyper VIP 2 Amp
Shure SM-58
Behringer 8-Channel Mixer
Behringer Digital Interface
All mixed and mastered in FL Studio

Thanks for the listens, and yeah, I feel that I scooped out the guitars too much on Spin. I was going for a techno/metal fusion, but it just sounds kind of muddled.
