Given the appeal for commercial-oriented melodic heavy metal these days, there will be a place for Raining Nails in that mix based on the diversity, experience, and understanding of the key components at play through Human Deeds. While not exactly breaking the mold, they certainly have the talent and songwriting skills…

Both released what is so far the best work of their careers, and managed to team up for a run of shows in the eastern part of the US in support of those releases. As if that couldn’t be any better, melancholic death doomsters Somnent joined for the Tampa and Orlando da…

You can’t express yourself that easily. In California, if you don’t go along with the mainstream thought out there, you are ostracized. I’m glad I got out of there. We got lucky, my wife and I had a really nice place that was inexpensive with a great landlord. It was hard to give tha…

And then when you play live you’re showing everyone what we all learn and then see how much as time goes by, the sound has changed and how much they evolved or stuff like that. On my end, I didn’t really record as much, other than just for me, YouTube covers that I did over the years. But after reviewing, looking back and seeing w…

Writing is why I started playing guitar in the first place; I wanted to learn how to create music that I would enjoy. That was literally my goal; I want to write guitar music that I would like. That was where it started for me and to me, that’s what recording in the studio is. It’s taking your ideas and bringing them to life and to me that’s special and powerful. T…
