Artist History In the middle of 1996 Scott started working where I worked. Through general conversation, we learned that the other played music. So one night after work he came over to the house and we jammed for about four hours, realizing that we had a good chemistry playing music together. So after a couple more jam sessions we started writing songs. By 1997 we wrote and copyrighted 17 songs. Some of these we have not released yet. Scott left for Atlanta Insitute of Music in the Fall of 1997. In September of 1998 Scott came in to visit me in WV, and we wrote Canyon Drop. We wrote this in one day, and we were very pleased at how well the song turned out. He then went back to Atlanta and I was still in WV, getting married on Oct. 1, 1998, not long after Scott left. It wasn't until late 2000 that Scott and I got in contact again. He was now living in Tonawanda, NY with his new girlfriend. Caught up on the last couple of years and it was then that we decided to start getting back into the band. We first put our old tunes up on this site. We got a lot of responses on how much people liked the music. It was then that we decided to cut a brand new CD, Ripped to Shreds. Only three tunes on this new CD are ones we wrote before 2001, which was house of horror, pegasi 51, and canyon drop. Pegasi and House of Horro were redone, because the quality was not as good as we wanted. The rest are totally new. Some of the tunes like Treasures of the Mind and Battle Within are Scott's solo tunes that he wanted to put on our band site because he said he would love to hear what I would do with it. We are now working on a brand new CD, in fact it's so new we don't even have the first song cut yet. Look for it in a few months though. Talonslash
