After my last album, I was left struggling to figure out where I wanted to go with music. My love for dubstep and bass music was rapidly fading, and I felt like I was ripping off people with actual talent with my synthrock music. The Cost of Anger was quickly shat out along with a few extra tracks, but I was burnt out of music. The passion was gone. I took a long break, and really considered what music I had the most fun making. Music production is supposed to be fun.
Making the eleven (ish) tracks you see here was the most fun I've ever had producing music. They may not be mixed or mastered to a professional level, and some of them may not be arranged very well, but I've learned that that's just not the kind of producer I want to be.
I hope you enjoy these tracks, they are what I'm most proud of.

it's in reference to the feeling of paranoia and dread
Paranoia was originally the title track but I wanted to be quirky so I named it this instead

also, thanks for introducing me to the genre "nintendocore," it definitely has a better ring than "synth metal" and I will be tagging my stuff as that from now on haha

Okay, it took me a while to get all the way through this because of some heavy work schedules, but here we are!
Amazing fake guitar. You used it in the way it should be used: for absolute clarity and monophonic melodies. The other synths play off each other so well, aggression can be felt through these 8bit sounds.
This is an amazing nintendocore project and could compete with the greats.

This is a great album. Wonderful job. The riffs are super catchy in every track. And even if they are all synths, they sound organic and very close to electric guitar sounds. It's very audible that an immense amount of care went into the making of this album.

Glad to see you've found your drive again. I can't say every track on here landed with me personally but that's totally okay cause the amount of effort and passion on display here is oozing from every tune, and that's way more important than what some random guy on the internet thinks.
Keep 'em coming my guy!
