    This song is a combination of soft, textural elements with loud, distorted aggression. It's a sonic expression of rejection and alienation.
    CD: N/A   Label: N/A
    Credits: Written, performed and recorded by Cameron Luft (Special thanks to Nicolo Paganini)

    Story Behind the Song
    This is a song for anyone who has been rejected for reasons that are less
    than just. Whether it be racial discrimination, age discrimination,
    sexual alienation, or even not being in the "In-Crowd" in junior high
    school, this song applies to all of the above and more. The soft,
    undistorted sections of the song are representative of the facade that a
    person has to put up in order to maintain an "acceptable" outward appearance
    The distorted parts are an explosion of what is really inside.

    The musical inspiration for this song comes from a number of sources.
    The most obvious are influences such as Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne,
    Dream Theater and similar bands. The clean parts of this song came from
    random experimentation. I messed around with arpeggios and chords
    until I found something that I like. The main distorted riff comes from a
    variation on a small (only eight notes) section of Paganini's fifth caprice.
    I experimented with half of a measure of that caprice until I found something
    heavy and (what I hope is) unique. I ended up using a "drop-D" tuning
    because it changed the pattern that I was working with to something
    different than what it was in the first place

    Lyrics
    As of right now, this song is strictly instrumental. I am still trying to write
    lyrics that express what I want to express.
