Tarkus406 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I've wrote this album called "The Epic Battle" back in 2005 and I would like to share it with all of you. I havent been able to come up with a band to perform or even professionaly record it...but I have something to start with. I decided to write under the name "Echo Hazard" because I didn't like the idea of "Derek Heid" or "The Derek Heid Band" or anything generic like that... So anyway... I wrote all the music for this album 3 years ago to be entirely instrumental. And then I got together with a buddy of mine, Maxwell Kale, and we brainstormed up some lyrics for it. Well we finally got it to sound somewhat OK. So here it is..."The Epic Battle" http://www.stage.fm/echohazard/ <--hope that turned into a link "The Epic Battle" by Echo Hazard (aka. Tarkus 406) 1. The Door (3:28) 2. Ceasing Voyage (2:32) 3. Premonition of the Stars (4:28) 4. A Hero's Discovery (4:20) 5. The Performance (4:46) 6. The Chosen One (6:18) 7. The Echo Hazard (8:30) 8. The Epic Battle (33:06) a. Revolution b. The Battle (Part 1) c. Intermission d. The Battle (Part 2) e. Death of a God f. Aftermath of the Battle g. Back Through the Door That last song had to be split up into 3 parts in order to be uploaded. I hope you find some of this at least remotely interesting and I'd appreciate any feedback Enjoy! I will be posting the lyrics to each song momentarily... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarkus406 Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 1. "The Door" ------------------- Shifting doors of perception Of astral reality Bends light to the commander Starships are all that are seen Blinded by the flare they bow to its grasp Drains them from their galaxy Consumed by the black mighty sight Exiled from society Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarkus406 Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 (edited) back in '05 I was so determined to bash rap music in the funniest way possible. So I wrote a 12 page essay about it and shared it in class....then I wrote that album ! Edited May 27, 2008 by Tarkus406 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umoveme Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Wow! I like your voice. I'm impressed It's like you describe on your website...progresssive 70s. It's very original. I can really imagine the drums driving along with Premonition of the Stars...nice Alex-like slowdown in there of the 5 songs I listened to, I like 'The Performance' the best....so far.
