I want to walk away with you. Into the depths of another life. I want to speak words that are true. I want to scream these words with you. We are one, we are all. We are all we saw and all that came before! We all walk as one... Together! Through the fields we never knew. One color, to bring it all together. You watch as I pass on through Blind to the gate between me and you! Now I pray that we'll see the way Watch me light this flame to guide the way! We can make this, I can take this. We can't fake this, Take your places Now is the time to make our stand We are one, we are all. We are all we saw and all that came before! We all walk as one... Together! (Chorus) Now I pray that we'll see the way Watch me light this flame to guide the way! We can make this, I can take this. We can't fake this, Take your places Now is the time to make our stand!

about

A rock anthem for troubled times. A rally to come together as one world - regardless of race, gender, or political views - to find hope and break through the darkness.

Together As One is a far cry from my “normal” musical style. Most will know me for my progressive metal and black metal stylings. However, those who have listened to my work will also know that my music often wanders into rock, pop and electronic territory. In short, I let the songs go where they need to go, regardless of the genre.

I originally planned to release this long after my debut album as a solo artist. I didn’t want people to be confused and think that I write “just” rock music. However, given the current circumstances (COVID-19), I felt that the message of this song could help lift spirits in this dark time. It was recorded several months ago, far before any news of a pandemic. But now it feels like it came into existence for a reason that is bigger than I had expected.

Together As One was written as a love song. But bigger than a “standard” love song. It’s love spreads to everyone, all across the world, regardless of gender, beliefs, race, or political leanings. It is an anthem that celebrates the power of humanity when we come together and embrace our differences, and work toward a better world.

I hope that Together As One will shine a little light amidst any darkness in your life.

Stay strong. And be excellent to one another.
