I can't really pin a genre on it. So I'll say that when you hear it, expect these instruments to be common: a bass guitar, one or two guitars depending on the track, drums, a synth creating some dark ambient sounds, and probably some noise. No vocals, because I cannot sing worth a shit.
Started in 2005. Abhoth is a one-man project, and I plan for it to stay that way. Other than that, I have other solo projects in other genres and I've done a few collaborations in the past. I was taught many years of music composition and theory, and even before I learned that knowledge, I had been messing around with sound editors for years. So I know a thing or two about songwriting and production, and I do my damnedest to have my own sound, though of course there's always music that does inspire but there's way too many I could list, and I'm not out to impress people by spitting out a shitload of band names, since in the end other people's influence is only a miniscule part of what drives me to make a track. Though in the end, listening to too many bands all in a short amount of time can tend to make your head dizzy, so there's times where I don't listen to anything at all, and try to get inspired by my own accord.
All I can say is that you'll either like or hate my music, and whatever you choose is not going to decide if the world ends. I've been studying music and sound since before high school, and by now in my adult life, I do this stuff because I like it - I don't do it to impress, it's simply the fact that if I wasn't doing this to occupy my time, I would have probably killed my fair share of people by now. Then there's that other fact that I don't want to be a vegetable my whole life doing nothing productive but watching TV.
My interest in sound and music are about equal, so some parts might be more musical than others, and sometimes there'll be those moments where the emphasis isn't on music but more on obscure/found sounds, noises, etc.
For my project that deals with noise and dark ambient, it's the project DANADAX, which is on my top friends list.
All news and updates on this and any of my other projects will be posted on The Subconscious Manifestation netlabel myspace page, the netlabel I co-founded and help maintain.

I looked, and behold, an ashen horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth-Revelation 6:8
