about

Once again I am revisiting past works. This time my first completely solo release, Beyond the Door of Reason.

I started working on this album once I graduated high school. I was inspired by one of my close friends that had just put out his own solo album. As much as that inspired me, I was later disappointed to discover my friend didn't have one ounce of original material on his album, all covers without credit. That being said, this is all original and not Swans.

After I got this EP recorded, I stopped working on it completely. I felt like I was giving it too much attention and started focusing more on group oriented projects with The Woodland Giants. So the next thing we released was, Holy Mountain. Everybody now refers to this as my first solo album. That would make releasing "Beyond the Door of Reason" my followup EP.

Now, after three years of my ears listening and growing into this genre (that I knew nothing about and thought I was making up), I have gone through and remixed and reworked every thing. I am very sad to say I do not have the original files for Desolation of Time (which I was most exited to work on), so that is the only thing that is still the same.
Anyway, please enjoy!


Original write up:

This album was the start of a solo project after I graduated high school, but never fully finished. It would come to be my second solo release following Holy Mountain.
