Sounds Like
Electronica, Metal, Rock, Industrial, Trance, Techno. I really don't think my stuff sounds like anyone. We use synthetic elements. Some people have said I'm a "Celldweller wannabe" and hey all I gotta say is yes I do love Celldweller and Klayton is the person who inspired me to make alot of my music and I wanted to do what he does, to do everything. Now I don't use any real instruments like him, but I basically make everything in this project.
Note: Real Faction is 1 on top friends.
Piercing Lazer is an electronica/metal/industrial type of solo project J.K. has formed in June 2007. J.K. Guy has been making this type of music for around two years, but has had no way to perform it live because he didn't have the right equipment. He uses a computer program called "Fruity Loops Studio 7" to make all of the songs. He started out with a solo project called "Real Faction" which was more techno. One of Piercing Lazers' first hit singles, "Upfall", was a song written by his friend "Dustman" (Dustin). They have made quite a few songs together. He has helped with other great hits like "Distorted", "7 AM", and more! So really he was a part of the project during the first album. The first album came out November 14th, 2007, and it's out now for $2.00! It was re-released locally with a disc cover with the logo in April 2008.
The new cd Parallel Universe just came out July 30th 2008 locally, but is to be re-released after J.K. finds a way to sell the songs online. The new album consists of new styles with some synths still in the project. The sinlges are "Change of Heart" and "Simple Sight". J.K. is already working on the third album to be released sometime next year.
