Ravage

I was their bass player during the original Spectral Rider recording and I ended up going out on tour with them for The End of Tomorrow.

If you did a search on YouTube for anything I'd be the one wearing the death metal shirts.

Wicked old school thrash! You guys were/are awesome!

Do u guys still jam? Sounds like you are all old friends.

Thank you so much! Awesome to see people still appreciate that style.

As for jamming.. I think they still get together but it seems like they are more focused on Iron Will at the moment.

We haven't spoke in a while and I think that's just life getting in the way. No hate. People move and lose touch. I still reach out every now and then. All solid guys.

The last thing I did was with a different group called Voidbloom. If you like the angry mathcore style you might check that out too. It's on Spotify and YouTube.

I certainly will. I'm ready to move on from Spiritbox's Eternal Blue which has been on repeat for a month.

Holy shit! They've got some bangers on there for sure. Thank you for the recommendation.

Also, I think there may be some other bands or groups that use the name Voidbloom. The album is called The Tongues of God

DUDE! Spectral Rider was released my last year of college (while also a pizza delivery driver). My friend got that CD from a record store (that had a good metal section). He let me borrow it. At the time, I was huge into making mix CDs of completely awesome songs for delivering pizzas. Spectral Rider (the song) was on that mix CD. Such an awesome mix of modern metal while being very old school sounding. I remember loving that CD though. I loved End of Tomorrow as well. Both Spectral Rider and End of Tomorrow were mainstays for me personally in terms of albums I would regularly listen to.

Sorry that things didn't go long-term or like you were hoping, but I really appreciate the bass work you put into Spectral Rider. I thought you guys were awesome. \m/ \m/

Thank you! But I can't take credit for the recordings.

At that time the bass was being recorded by Eli and Nick. It was a timing issue of member changes.

I was mainly a live musician but I hope you got to see me play. There was a lot of flare I added. (Or at least I think) The tappy part of Spectral Rider could've been only heard live but I think it did add to the song not just my ego. (I suck at tapping)

I hope you guys still support them and I love Iron Will's album, it's sick and they just released The Worldwide Resistance in 21.

Thanks again for the support. If you want to hear more of my playing check out the Shroud demo, Crawl because you're worthless, and Voidbloom The Tongues of God. (None of it is like Ravage)
