📖 The Story

Martial Law was my first full record, written over years and finished long after the world it imagined started to feel uncomfortably real.

Built from hard rock, industrial, electronica, and dance influences, it reflects a growing sense that something was wrong with the system, even before the shape of that breakdown was clear.

Originally released under a fictional alias, the album sits between paranoia and pattern recognition, urgency and confusion. Heavy, abrasive, and unapologetically intense, it is not a party record. It is a document of unease, made before the language existed to explain it.
