“Overcome” album is like Slipknot getting married to Dream Theater while Korn was doing the handfasting ceremony. It’s a dark, mostly heavy album that is predicated on nu-metal and metalcore influences while having a rather prog-metal structure to every song. Metalcore and nu-metal are definitely not the only elements that comprise its fabric. Some songs have a strong orchestral flavor, others are much brighter and atmospheric, and many are infused with dark ambient textures, subtle world music flavors, and dreamy melancholic chord progressions. The first music for “Overcome” was in development as far back as 2006. The oldest songs were based on the unfolding tragic events in my family which led to the death of my mother later in 2007. Fall 2006 was perhaps the darkest and most challenging chapter in my life when I lost all hope and slipped closer and closer to death from exhaustion, starvation, gender dysphoria, and depression. The work on “Overcome” continued until spring 2007, but then was put on hold until 2009 due to my involvement in multiple projects. The work on the album continued in Fall 2009. I was convinced I was able to finalize an ambitious 28-song project but by spring 2010 I’ve had only the first 12 tracks having vocals tracked. Again, due to a busy schedule, I had to set this album aside. In late 2018, I’ve decided to finish the work I’ve started a long while ago. In January 2019, I dedicated myself solely to “Overcome” and spent months making a modern full re-edit of all 28 songs. Some of the songs were still in the writing since 2006. 7 tracks on “Overcome” have modern lyrics, music, and vocals which were recorded this year. There’s a difference in vocal performance and sound because 7 songs were recorded in 2006, 1 in 2007, 12 in 2010, and 7 in 2019. “Overcome” runtime is 3 hours 52 minutes. It’s the longest album in my catalog up to date.… Expand
