Always wanting to try writing and recording a full length album, one day I took the plunge. I grew up playing piano and guitar thanks to my dad, and drums, though not clean to a professional's ears, I took the risk to learn them. The main genre is experimental metal, fully inspired by artists such as Frank Zappa, Mr. Bungle, and King Crimson.
A Split in the Sun is a concept album based on my comic book world I've built in Wendy and the Sprite, Overflow and Dot the Robot.
Two sisters, deities of the moon hovering over an old grey planet, fight over the governing of said planet; resulting in their moon splitting in two. One sister "rules", while the other, perishes to the shadows below on the planet's surface.
There's more to it of course, as it relates to my comic books I produce under AllsCherry.
