Daniel is a Homo-sapien and loves all sorts of music, but if it's loud, he's probably gonna like it.

Daniel can often be found in strange corners of the internet, obsessively arguing about things that people don't really care about. He works in an office, but dreams of world domination.

Hypnotic and moody, eddying currents of warm melody wash over and give way to the pulsing urgency and the building sense of unease, punctuated by the nodding of your head and tapping of your foot. This one will stay with you long after you leave it behind.

A deft blend of melancholic melodies and textured rhythms evoke shades of John Frusciante and the ghost of Elliot Smith, while the soft indigenous undertones add somber heart and poignant harmonies to the ebbing and flowing as the track builds and builds.

A powerful, chugging rhythm section kicks into overdrive and ramps up the tempo and intensity and drives the track home to a powerful conclusion.

Highly recommended.

An absolutely mesmerizing journey through shimmering textures, lashing rhythms, and rich, lush melodies. Straddling the fence between post-rock and prog-rock, with none of the failings of either genre but all of the strengths.

The polished and supple production, and mature craftsmanship on display only serve to heighten the experience. Highly recommended.

Dirtier then week old bong water. A muddy, fuzzed out bluesy/stoner-rock trip, indeed.
What's not to dig about it?

Just so much to like about this track, such well constructed, infectious pop-rock. I dare you to not be nodding along by the end, I dare you.

What strikes me most about this song - Apart from how much it rocks - Is how mature and well crafted it sounds. One of the best pieces of unearthed music I've yet had the pleasure to hear.

Take one cup Porcupine Tree, a handful of Green Carnation, add in a dash of Ashes Divide and just a pinch of Tool, cook for 5 minutes and 43 seconds, and best served LOUD.

Consider me a fan.

Large potential. The technical dexterity and flair is most certainly present, now the next step is to craft some well rounded songs befitting such virtuosity, and I look forward to hearing this.

A wonderfully fresh fusion of sounds and styles
Gothenburg grooves, metalcore breakdowns, thrashy breakneck riffs, infection melodies, chippy intro... This genre hopping behemoth is difficult to pigeon hole and impossible to ignore.

Gorgeous harmonies and yearning melodies, evoking bittersweet memories of Elliot Smith, Jeff Buckley, or The Watchmen.

Shines head and shoulders above the cluttered Singer/Songwriter pack. I look forward to hearing more from this artist.

A wonderful showcase of Nate's vocal power and prowess, and he segues and lurches between lullaby sweet and soaring visceral rawness, in a heartbeat while staccato drumming punctuates and drives the track over a turbulent ocean of wonderfully melodious guitar and bass.

A fantastic track.
