my goal, musically, was to combine dramatic, romantic neoclassical elements with goth, grunge, and thrash metal influences. the album received mixed reviews in the metal world, with critics who celebrated "letting go of what was limiting about metal" to other critics who called it "unlistenable... real crap." in any case, it became clear to me in the months that followed the release of this album that most people didn't understand what i was trying to do. shortly after cutting a second album, silence, in 2004, i decided infinite singularity was a failure and, with the exception of a few solo synth gigs over the years, largely abandoned the project until the summer of 2022.

where physics meets philosophy lives an idea: everything that can happen, actually does. every decision leads to the creation of alternate or parallel universes. it’s called the many worlds theory or hypothesis; an interesting, if disturbing, thought. getting older, it’s probably common to question what might be, or could have been, had you made a different decision and a different world unfolded around you. in many ways that’s what the new single is about; creating an alternate sonic universe within infinite singularity.
