ARE WE PREPARED FOR THE IMPENDING ROBOT LOLOCAUST?

About Me

I do this thing called I, Parasite . I, Parasite's third full length album, The Sick Are Not Healing is almost ready for release.

I also play drums for Android Lust live. I also assisted in mixing the AL album Devour, Rise, and Take Flight and contributed some other stuff here and there.


The other thing I recently worked on was the Cradle Of Filth album, Thornography with producer Rob Caggiano. I did synth programming and sounds/noises/textures on several songs.


"[I like] Early Industrial music, before Industrial became a synonym for Disco" - Steve Albini

"Every civilization depends on the quality of the individuals it produces. If you over-organize humans, over-legalize them, suppress their urges to greatness — they cannot work and their civilization collapses." - Frank Herbert, Children of Dune
