SGNLS was written and recorded between 2017 and 2020 at Garageland 1.0 and Garageland 2.0, a project studio based in Tacoma, Washington. The album is short and to the point. The songs are repetitive and droning but crushing none the less, perfect for any stoner metal or doom metal fan

This album was inspired by the movie Metropolis, which is one of my favorite movies. The writing and recording were done during the COVID-19 quarantine of 2020.

I am really proud of the production on this one. I recorded the guitars through my Randall RM100 and a Mesa Boogie 4x12 mic'ed up with a Shure SM57. There is not a lot of post processing on the guitars, just a multi band compressor to kill the palm mutes. The drums were programmed using Superior Drummer 3.0 and the Metal Foundry expansion pack. The bass was recorded using a Tech21 SansAmp DI.

In this video, I summarize the process Born A Ghost uses to write songs. The song is available here on Soundcloud.

In this video, I show you how to use the Eternal Blue exploit to gain administrative access to a Windows machine. I am using the TryHackMe Blue room for this example.

My daughter Teagan captured this at the perfect time.

I love bathroom wall graffiti.

I thought these little guys were creepy.

I had 30 seconds to take a picture of something and edit it before uploading... this is that.

I was board at the dentist... this is the result.

I found this awesome dragon sculpture when I was out and about and thought I would get a pic.
