Influences
I get inspired by people who live and breathe their passion,
wether it's music, painting, poetry, carving or any form of creation.
Musically I grew up listening to the following
Led Zep, Sabbath, The Stones, The Beatles, T-Rex/Marc Bolan, Donovan, Bowie, Alice Cooper, Aerosmith, Heart, Twisted Sister, Cat Stevens, Ritchie Havens, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Robert Johnson and later W.A.S.P, Guns N Roses, Living Colour (Corey Glover Vocals of Doom), Metallica and Motley Crue. Tom Keifer, The Tea Party / Mr Jeff (God) Martin, Tod Howarth.
Then came those who I saw on the local scene, that I was fortunate enough to meet and later become friends with, these people have had a major impact on me, not only musically but also in Life. I am very honoured to know the following:
Paul (Noizemonster) Muller
Ruben & Rick Sanchez,
Ash Gravino
Claude Hay
Juz Leslie
Henri De Boer
Charles Cilia
and The Amazing Michael J Azzopardi
And I'm heavily into the written word, so these poets have an effect on my psyche.
The Brothers Grimm, Poe, Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Henry Rollins, Jennifer Singleton
Then for more Blackness.
I grew up watching any Horror movie and reading any dark novel there was to be found.
I saw the Exorcist as a young child and would sit up watching the late night Horror movies with my Dad.
He'd take every opportunity to scare the hell out of me, it was great, I look back on those times with great fondness.
The Exorcist is my favourite novel without doubt, followed closley by Legion.
Sounds Like
"ACOUSTIC BLACKNESS"
"Emotional rawness, along with a voice to die for, a guitar style integral to your material.
A terrific presence, visually and energetically.
What makes you stand out in my eyes, is that you've found your own voice".
As quoted by Sue Booker
I have been called the Dark Poet, the writer of Dark Prayers filled with passion, emotion and incredible energy…
In the dark recesses of my mind, morbid thoughts twist with melodies and rhythms.
A puritan's vision of music and lyric, Hate, Lust, Loathing and Passion fuel my songs of "Acoustic Blackness".
Music flows out in dark tones, some urgent and erratic, others more mellow.
But never a light at the end of the tunnel.
