About the Album
“On Cosmic Angels or any of my albums, the emphasis is on song writing and telling a story. I am more influenced by power trios like Rush, Tool and Led Zeppelin. Not one instrument is more important than the other. There is a symbiotic relationship between guitar, bass and drums. The emphasis is not just on the lead guitar melody, but on the band as a whole. Lead melody harmonic variations on repeating themes are strongly utilized; like rhyming phrases in spoken language that allows easier accurate retelling of the original story. This idea of repeating music phrases/themes so the audience can easily recall it and hum it all the way home.”
About the Songs (from the artist)
Interstellar – A song about flying past the stars to new worlds. Inspired by the movie of the same name.
Phoenix from the Ashes – A song about being at the lowest time of your life, and breaking through to your highest potential. Born from the ashes.
Cosmic Angels: Don’t you think flying saucers look like Cosmic Angels?
On Dragon’s Wings: A song about riding on the back of your own dragon.
Luftpanzer (Air Tanks): Did you know Nazi Germany reverse engineered extraterrestrial technology and had their own flying saucers? The secret World War II history they don’t want you to know 😉
Echoes of Peter Steele: A song dedicated to the late Peter Steele of the band Type O Negative.
Thlaylee: A song about the end of the world, and us throwing our hands up in the air begging extraterrestrial nations to rescue us from our own peril.
A Dolphin’s Paradise: A song about dolphins playing. If you listen to the guitar melody, it’s two dolphins singing.
Arcturian Sunset: I pictured being on a blue and white crystal planet somewhere around the Arcturus star. I was on a beach and this song is what I heard.
