Wild Animus

The 2007 release of The Ram, Rich Shapero's first album, marks the beginning of the artist's musical career. But calling The Ram an "album" may be too limiting for this venture.
Wild Animus, Part 1: The Ram
The Ram is intended as the first part of a three-CD series, the "emotional core of the Wild Animus experience." Rich Shapero crafts, with lyrics that recall Cannibal Corpse's Bloodthirst, a raw emotional landscape, rife with the primal. Drums, guitar, bass, and more mingle and seduce. The Ram is a bestial, pure, auricular pheromone.
Wild Animus, Part 2 & 3
Too Far, the indie label behind The Ram, has announced that Parts 2 and 3 of Wild Animus are currently in production. Further information will be available at Too Far's official website.
