Super pleased to share this amazing album I've been working on with some great guys. If you grew up listening to heavy music in the 90's then you'll probably dig this! All recording, mixing and mastering done by myself.

https://chng.it/nfj5CDqvp5 any music noise that can be heard by someone else can be classified as a nuisance. TV and radio are 'living noise' but that the playing of an instrument is not.
