Cage of Thought and Flesh

What a profound title, eh? Hah.
A bombastic brass intro followed by some metallic guitar riffage. Inspired somewhat by Pantera's Cowboys from Hell.
This is my favorite of my more heavy metalish songs. It's still one I'd like to finish.

Crunchy Classical

I wrote this somewhat silly song after getting into some Hendrix and Malmsteen for the first time.

Gee, That's Swell

This is my only foray into surf music, making the title an obvious pun. Obviously inspired by the famous Miserlou by Dick Dale.

Several years ago, I had a vague but ambitious plan of writing an album-length series of songs, called "The Crystal Moon" or something similar. Basically, a space-opera instrumental concept album. Of course, neither my songwriting skills nor my attention span were equal to the task, and all that was written was this piece of music, meant to be evocative of some sort of spacecraft being launched towards heaven at dawn. Quite a bit of tapping ensues.
This was one of my friend Steven Ambarian's favorite songs of mine, and he made an enhanced remix of it. Garage Band, the program used to make these remixes, does not recognize pitch bends, however, so there are a few false notes in the remix.

Comet

Here's the first song I composed on Power Tab. This is actually the second version of the song. This version only goes the first chorus riff, while the original went on somewhat further, featuring a second verse and chorus, and the beginning of an interlude. I started work on a third "definitive" version, but both that and the original perished along with the hard drive on which they were saved. This version, along with many of my other songs, were on a flash drive, and escaped that fate.
I tried to use some fancier chords in the intro to this version, but the result is atonal.
