We don't want to be boxed in one genre, so we designed a music pattern based on themes. We have the following 4 core themes that ranges from acoustic, electronic, rock, metal, pop, classical, rap, jazz, and etc. All the red marked songs are currently prepared for studio work. We have a wide variety of multi-genre songs that our fans like. Surely you might like some too!
The band will create it's own science fiction movie series with characters played by the band members and collaborators. Each band member is required to build their own story line played by their own chosen character (The founder will assist each band member to brainstorm the specific details). The fans greatly love this about us because we present them with immersive visual and music art form with an in-depth story of our songs tailored in a surrealistic world full of imagination, hope, and aspirations.
THE ORIGIN STORY
Once upon a time in the last frontier of the western universe, there were 5 heroes that met in a twisted game of fate in the most technologically advanced planet called, Planet Z. These 5 heroes came from their beloved home planets seeking redemption to their lifelong journey. They decided to join the new horizon mission to help save their dying galaxy. The equinox confederacy then ordered these 5 believers to enter the Equinox (Holographic Vault) and render themselves digitally within a million light years of journey to Planet Earth in a holographic form of a birthed human with consciousness. The wild terrain of the dark matter in space time continuum will desynchronize their finest gifts and memory of their original state. They will need to find their way to stay alive in Planet Earth until Planet Z's technological capability enables them to synchronize their consciousness back in the Equinox. They will be birthed anew as the 5 earthlings the world will now know of. Their musical talents represent their unique past synchronized by their abilities from their home planets. They are one. They are the last of hope. They are the only A-team called,

Zero: name derived from the digit 0 which is the fundamental system of each universal information, was born in the depths of the darkness in the most unknown and isolated part of the universe, The Great Void (Boötes Void in reality). During the galaxian war, a seeker fled him out of the great void to survive the doomed galaxian conquest and snuck him into the city of light called, Lux, a major capital kingdom in the home Planet, Solaris. Zero have a strange dark cloud with tiny thunderstorms showing on top of his eyes, a sign of a dark genetic ancestry he posses. The royal family of Lux raised him and became their biggest weapon against the evil of galaxian conquerors because of his distinct genetic make up. They tried to bless him with a Luxian veil to expel the curse (dark cloud on his eyes) and remove his ancestral’s dark cursed power, but all it did was suppress the darkness, just like how light emits darkness in the systemic law of the universe. The royal family then decided to give him a chronox (glasses), a technological accessory that suppresses dark energy to prevent the vengeful souls from spilling into the universe.

The song still have room for changes but lets go along with this arrangement for now. Have FUN!

Verse 1
You keep running in circles in my mind
These uncertainties keeps us awake in the dark

And you keep on running away to a place where you belong

And we bleed in all the same
Scars left untamed
Here in the dark

Here in the dark
Here in the dark
Here in the dark
But it’s all in your head, in your head, in your, In your head
Maybe it’s in your head, in your head, in your, in your head
It’s just in your head, in your head, in your, in your head
In your head, in your head, in your head
But it’s in your head, in your head, in your head

And maybe one day, one way, one moment, one fate
