Audio Weapon

<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Audio Weapon</span> has risen from the dark forest foothills of New Hampshire. Never satisfied with playing others music, I took on the need of being the composer, writting and refining&nbsp;abilities and direction of tastes. With a unique approach has fused the styles of progessive, metal, and hard rock to form a different and unique take on composing music. <br />All aspects of the production are controlled by <span style="color: #ff0000;">AUDIO WEAPON</span>. From the initial concept of melodies and rythms to the recording, mixing and post production. No fancy studios or aid or desire for the presentation of perfection in sound. Music in it's being and instincts are imperfect as with the human existance. It is heard exactly as it was recorded with all the imperfections that make it a truly human experience of unseen art.</span></span></strong>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Here's a few reviews I've recieved for <span style="color: #ff0000;">Night of the Fallen</span>, a fast progrock instrumental with unusual time signatures.</span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">i have been reviewing in the progressive rock category for about 2 hours now...this is the first piece tonight that i have heard that truly fits in this category...wonderful melody and progression with the bass and guitar..very nice drums are vivrant i like that as well...the track has a nice analog warmth to it and not the normal sterile digital sound as well..very much lending to very powerful and classic sound remenisent of prog rock of the late 70's 80's and 90's i could totaly hear someone like ray alder of fates warning doing some vocals on this...awsome piece...a true progresive rock/metal track..best one i have heard in a long while... </span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Your song has a nice ballance between guitar and synth. Very good with the orchestration and time signitures. It sounds like you may have a little Dream Theater influence (that would be a compliment from me!) without sounding too much like them. You show a great deal of talent and potential. </span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Unbelievable instrumental verse. Very technical, the way I like it. Instrumentation is fantastic. Must be music majors. Shows off well to the prog musician! <br /></span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Good players -Good guitar figure like the 6/8-real musicians music thank God! </span></span></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Thanks to all for listening!</span></span></strong></p>
