Artist description Westgate fuses classically influenced art-metal and art-punk with elements of industrial and progressive electronica to create a unique sound that manages to convey a subtle, gentle message while screaming in your face. Westgate's music follows no rules; junkyard digital meets the hi-tech acoustic in an arena where chaos is calculated and structures are spontaneous.
