My Personal Bandcamp Index.

Here are all known direct links to my projects on Bandcamp, in semi-chronological order (with genre, project type, role, my active years, and band/project status listed). All of them appear to be for free download, or at the very least "name your price" with no minimum (de facto free):

Obliteration (thrash metal, band, drums, 1995-1998) 

https://obliterationnj.bandcamp.com

Status: Inactive since 1998. Recordings for an 8 song album (proper recordings of 90's demo-era songs) were started in 2013-2014, but were ultimately unfinished and were abandoned.




Coagulated Blood (death metal, band, drums, 1998-2004)

(***Note: Some imagery here should be considered extremely NSFW***)

http://coagulatedblood.bandcamp.com/

Status: Inactive since roughly 2012, after an attempted reboot initiated in 2010 without my involvement failed to materialize. Further reboots as a solo project of bassist Drew were attempted in 2019, status unknown. 




Mazeffect (garage/punk rock, band, drums, 2001-2007)

(***Note: Only compilations are posted. None of the original releases appear in full***) o

https://mazeffect.bandcamp.com/

Status: Inactive since 2008. One off "reunion" gig with my involvement played in 2018.




Grover Kent (pop-punk, band, bass/vocals, 2005-2007)

(***Note: This page has all of the band's releases, including ones I did not play on***)

http://groverkent.bandcamp.com/

Status: Technically inactive since 2007, but they will occasionally do a one off gig here or there. I am not involved.




Cold Blank Stare (black metal, solo project, all instruments and vocals, 2005-2014)

http://coldblankstare.bandcamp.com/

Status: Inactive since 2014.




Red Flag Fleet (indie rock, band, bass, 2008-2011)

https://redflagfleet.bandcamp.com/

Status: Inactive since 2011. The 2008 1st lineup started recordings for a 5 song EP that were ultimately unfinished and abandoned. The 2009-2011 2nd lineup also has about 5 songs (possibly 6) throughout its existence where recordings were started but were ultimately unfinished and abandoned.




Dark Sacrament (melodic black metal, band, drums, 2009-2014)

http://darksacrament.bandcamp.com/

Status: Inactive since roughly 2016. Recordings for an 8 song album were started in 2014 but were ultimately unfinished and abandoned. Attempts to keep this band active between 2014 and 2015 after my departure and without my involvement failed to materialize. Attempts to reboot this band as an internet based recording project in 2016 and 2019 with my involvement also failed to materialize.




Goodbye Berlin (indie rock, band, bass/glockenspiel, 2013-2014)

http://goodbyeberlin.bandcamp.com/

Status: Active. I was replaced in this band by Ben Earl and they have since released three EPs; Kinder in 2017, Home in 2018, and Dare in 2019. Recordings for a 10 song album were started in 2014 but were ultimately unfinished and abandoned, as the band elected to write fresh material when they linked up with Ben. Please check them out and support!




The Black Cat Fridays (alternative rock, band, bass/synths, 2014-2017)

https://blackcatfridays.bandcamp.com/

Status: Inactive since 2017. Recordings for a 5 song EP were started in 2016-2017 but were ultimately unfinished and abandoned.




Paper Machetes (alternative rock, band, drums, 2017-2018)

https://papermachetesgso.bandcamp.com/

Status: Inactive since 2018. Recordings for two 3 songs EPs were started in 2018. One was substantially completed (mixed, mastered, artwork completed; seconds away from being uploaded to Bandcamp) but shelved due to disagreements between band members. The second was started but was ultimately unfinished and abandoned.



Palm Tree Girls (lo-fi/art/experimental/unclassifiable, recording project, drums/percussion/programming, 2018-present)

Status: Active. This is a internet based recording project; Jeremy (my former bandmate in Paper Machetes) and Lydia work on their parts out of Cleaveland OH, and forward the files for me to work on in NC. The first file shares happened in late 2018, but work on my end began in earnest in the summer of 2019. Second and third albums are in varying states of completion, with releases in 2021 expected.



The remaining projects I was involved in will not be on Bandcamp for the following reasons:

Slain (1995) (Only one cover song ever attempted; no recordings exist.)

Acquiesce (2003-2004) (I was merely a session drummer and have no rights/stake in the project. One 8 song album was recorded and finished circa 2003-2004, and the brains behind the project has possession of said album recordings, but it does not appear that the album will ever see the light of day.)

Decoder (2004-2006) (I was merely a live stand in drummer and I have no rights/stake in the band.)

Kate Hart (2005-2008) (She has all but disowned her musical endeavors. I am no longer involved with this individual and have no further rights or stake whatsoever to the one 6 song EP released on CD in 2005 where I was a session drummer, bassist, guitarist, keyboardist, and recording engineer.)

Dangerous Cousins (2012-2013) (10-12 song album recordings abandoned; no other recordings exist.)

Fauxmance (2019-2020) (I was a founding member of this “band” in 2019, playing bass and keys. A 3 song EP entitled Call was released to Bandcamp in late 2019. The EP was deleted by the “band” after I was fired in early 2020 in what I believe is an attempt to write me out of their history. Beyond that, the less said about this “band”, the better)
