After 3 years, I've finally released an album of music I've written and recorded myself. Download it for free here -

This is a tight-knight community of metal bass players, so maybe a few of you can relate to this story. Back when I was a teenager first...
Hey guys, just thought I'd let you know about my friends up in Montreal called Beyond Creation. Some of you might remember Forest from Augury - He plays in the Death tribute band Symbolic now too, actually. Awesome dude, killer bass player. Gonna go drive up and hang out with those guys again...
I told myself when I first heard this when I was 13 or 14, "I'll be able to play this someday." So - here we are ~7 years later - I did.

Hey guys, I play bass in Atheist now. We're going on tour in a few days, so I figured I should let you guys know.
And yes, we are playing Oslo, so all you Spiral Architect dudes should definitely come hang out.

Hey guys, I play bass in Atheist now. Thought I'd throw the tour schedule up here, since it starts in like two days and there's probably some bass players here who might be interested...!

A little over three weeks ago, I did a recording session playing bass for a few friends of mine (John Longstreth among them). It was pretty intense...

Casiopea is a killer Japanese fusion band from the 80's, with a very talented bass player by the name of Tetsuo Sakurai...the song I recorded is from the very first album they released in 1979, but apparently they have a lot of discography through the 80's and even then 90's...a lot of pretty...

These are the two songs Spiral Architect had on the "A Gathering" compilation of Norwegian bands back in 1995 (holy crap, 14 years ago?).
1. Fountainhead
2. Purpose
They feature Leif Knashaug on vocals and Kaj Gornitzka on guitar...
Ever wonder what it would be like if A Sceptic's Universe wasn't a cd, but...an NES game?!
Sounds pretty crazy...but thanks to chiptune artist extraordinaire Matt "Norrin Radd" Creamer, we at least know what Spinning would sound like -...
I've had the idea to paint my cab for awhile now, but didn't know what exactly I wanted for an image. Once the idea do to an 8-bit metroid came to me, I made a mockup pic and immediately knew I had to go with it. Surprisingly, I couldn't find much information at all about people who've painted...
...Atheist and Cynic ever got on a tour package together? I think you guys would fit perfectly on that bill, and personally I'd be pretty disappointed with most other bands that would probably get booked on it (ie Dragonforce headlining the most recent Cynic tour :Puke:)
Our demo is finished. Recorded at Max Trax - tracked by Ryan Slowey of Clitorture and mastered by Brett Portzer, and consisting of three songs - The First Encounter, Spectral Enigma, and Silent Holocaust, the resulting product is 14:26 of creative, technical brutality.
Give it a listen.
Haven't heard too much out of this genre, but what I have heard intrigues me. Can someone point me in the right direction as to which artists I should start out with...?
Since converting anything down to an 1/8th inch jack kills quality, I'm trying to research cheap(?) ways of doing simple, low-end recordings that - while low-end - don't sound like pure shit. Is there any way to like, install a quarter inch or XLR input to a home computer? If I were to go out...
Kind of old, but these guys are pretty underground still, so I thought I'd share. Personally, the way they incorporate the solo just gives me chills.
