about
This was the first song I made as Cloudkicker in the fall of 2006. For two years I had been making loop-based songs that would comprise all of the mypspace tracks also available on this site. This song was an attempt to move into more long-form technical metal territory, inspired by a Meshuggah binge, the Tool album 10,000 Days (which came out that year), and a trip to Iceland in the summer.
This was performed a handful of times live, most notably in my friend Ben's garage in El Segundo, CA on July 4, 2007, and on some other date in 2007 at Chain Reaction in Anaheim, CA (we opened for Horse the Band).
It has also been known as "I Am Vanquished" for some reason that escapes me.
