NIHILUM

Fusion/Defusion will be releasing on Friday October 6th on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms.

I just want to thank for the beautiful artwork, for the accompanying artwork on Bandcamp, and once again, Simon Jameson for Mixing and Mastering another release!

Everything is ready to go, just finished up some last minute details for the release.

I’ll have a release date next week.

Info regarding the next release coming soon!

Obligatory “not dead/still alive” post. I’ve been busy with quite a bit in my personal life and haven’t got around to posting. A little update for the project though…

Coming out later this year will be a 2 track composition entitled Fusion/Defusion, coming in around 11:30 in length. I’ve got the cover artwork about to be shipped this side of the pond by and I’ve had a 3 panel artwork designed by to give a little additional visual material for the lyrical content as well.

These two tracks are a really great summary of what’s been happening to me in 2022 and I’ve managed to morph what’s been going on into a story to fit inside the story behind the lyrics in NIHILUM.

More to come as I begin to set aside money for the production and updates as I move through the release process, including the undecided release date. Right now I’m expecting a 2nd half of the year release more than likely.

I hope everyone is doing well, and I’ll catch you on the flip side boiiiiiiii

#2023

Not really sure if this is the best way to present this, but here we go anyway.

Here is the introduction to the conceptual framework that underlays NIHILUM, as well as, the lyrical analysis for Track 1 from Cascading Darkness: Metamorphosis/Absorption

Next week I will post the grammatical structure behind the Voidtongue present in this song. I figured this would be enough as a start.

My intention is that this will give the reader/listener a deeper understanding behind what they hear as the lyrics were not just written to be seen through one lens, but three separate, simultaneous, and cohesive explanations for the lyrics present.

I hope everyone is having a good week! Take care!

I’ve been working on the supporting material behind the lyrics for quite some time and I have just completed the first bit of documentation.

I will get this typed up next week and out to everyone! I’ll begin to explain the story, introduce characters, and explain the Null’anic language and grammar structure.

Prepare yourself nerds!

You were a massive influence who was there at the beginning. You helped me process my own struggles with mental health at a time where I felt entirely alone.

I looked up to, and still do, as a vocalist, a lyricist, and a musician. I hope that I can be half of what you were for others as you were for me.

I thought I was done crying about this, but I will turn this pain, like the rest I still have, and try to make something positive out of it.

My heart broke all over again when I saw your face, today is going to be a hard one.

To all of those struggling out there: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Don’t believe the lie.

RIP Brother.

If you’re already bored of Cascading, here’s some dope s**t that my boi just dropped.

Quite literally rolled out of bed for this.

Support his project! He’s got plenty of s**t for that ass coming up 😎

Got about halfway down last night with doing some last minute additions. The first 4 shipped out yesterday!

These will be the first and last release with this much plastic. So get ‘em while you can!

I had a moment while I was signing these where I saw my CD, and it gave me a flashback to when I first got Master of Puppets on CD. With the black plastic to the left of the cover artwork and all. Sh*ts crazy man.

How did all of that swag fit in one picture? Anyway, DO NOT ORDER THESE YET!

ORDER TO SUPPORT JUNETEENTH!

Orders will be shipped out next Saturday, 18 June.

Last week I completed my gear upgrade with the bass being the last piece of the puzzle.

The PRS has already earned its place, many times over, with my metric being simply : written songs. The Spector has already been recorded on some other projects as well.

Still waiting for the CD’s to arrive unfortunately. In the event they don’t arrive on schedule, those who wait will be rewarded.

The writing/recording process has been underway for the past one or two months, and I am closing in on what’s left to be written.

This new s**t is fkn s*k yo

This is what I get for not getting on the internet.

These guys were such a joy to grow up listening to. Killer release after killer release.

One of my biggest influences vocally, and one of my favorite albums that got me into death metal, Nocturnal.

Everblack came out on my birthday a really, almost a decade ago. Damn time flies.

I’m sick and tired of seeing great people go man. I really don’t know what else to say honestly.

I’m gonna get stoned, cry, and blow my ear drums out 😢

Alrighty, so on Tuesday, 26 April, I will start the 7 day giveaway. It will be pretty easy to enter, just the post on Tuesday and you’re in.

Just wanting to give back to you guys while we patiently wait for the CD’s to come in.

Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Smile, you’re not dead.

I was approached by the Ukrainian back in Jan of ’21 to be part of an international compilation CD and these Giga Chads got it to me during a war.

I will be opening a giveaway next Tuesday (25 Apr) at 11:00AM CDT that will close the following Tuesday (6 May) at 11:00AM CDT.

6 Total Winners

1st Place:
- Compilation CD
- Compilation T Shirt
- Magazine w/ NIHILUM article
- NIHILUM Merch

This coming Friday I will make another post with all of the details, I just wanted to get this out to everyone.

Santa came on 4/20 this year…

March 17th! Preorders are up on Bandcamp.

Super excited to get these! Some people don’t really care for CD’s, i dig em. I had most of my early memories with music in this format.

No money so I would go to the public library and start ripping s**t tons of CD’s. Pretty much most of my early music collection were CD’s now that I think about it.

Anyway, I hope this finds everyone well and your week continues to be positive. Bad start to the week? You’ll turn it around and make it work.

On Wednesday I will be showing off the next t-shirt design

I am not really sure on the timeline of these being released as ya boi is broke as hell from Cascading. I want to keep the momentum going though and get those of you who are interested excited.

This artwork acts as a visual companion of sorts to Metamorphosis/Absorption directly

As always done by

Thanks Soulgrinder Zine and Andy Hamlet!
