Above All Else
Introducing “Above All Else” – A Sonic Odyssey of Resilience and Triumph!
Prepare yourselves for a sonic onslaught that defies the boundaries of technical death metal! Behold, Nick Sialepis’ groundbreaking new album, “Above All Else.” This magnum opus is not merely an album; it’s an immersive journey into the depths of the human spirit. With lightning-fast beats reaching mind-bending 300 BPMs, intricate 2-handed tapping, searing arpeggios and guitar solos that shatter the very fabric of reality. This album is a visceral experience, taking you on a wild ride through the realms of technical death metal, blackened death metal, progressive metal and the enigmatic world of Djent.
Beneath the surface, where darkness reigns and hope seems lost, our saga begins. “Above All Else” dives headfirst into the harrowing depths of human existence with its opening track, “Beneath the Surface.” A chilling introduction to a world of despair, the album progresses into the savage embrace of “Natural Selection,” a testament to survival against insurmountable odds.
As the journey continues, listeners are thrust into the heart of adversity with “Survival,” a track that captures the relentless struggle for existence. The narrative then unfolds, reaching its crescendo with “Ascend the Throne I” and “Ascend the Throne II,” symbolic of the triumphant ascent from the abyss, the rise to power and the ultimate conquest of personal demons.
“Above All Else” is more than music; it’s a raw, unfiltered reflection of a life marked by pain and trauma, a story of resilience and the indomitable human spirit. Through every riff and relentless beat, the album echoes the tale of overcoming the darkest of days, embracing the power of adaptation and emerging stronger on the other side.
This album isn’t just a musical masterpiece; it’s a testament to the transformative power of art. “Above All Else” is a beacon of hope amidst the chaos, a reminder that even in the depths of despair there lies the potential for triumph. Experience the journey, feel the intensity and let the music of Nick Sialepis carry you “Above All Else.”
Biography
I grew up in Sydney, Australia. At the age of 13, my father gave me my first guitar. I knew straight away this would be my passion for life. Over many years of practice and small teenage bands (ranging from power metal to technical death metal and everything in between), I started to write music, composing tracks and really establish my own sense of style.
I went on to study both music performance and music production, receiving a diploma in Music Production and started off my career working as an assistant in a recording studio. After spending many hours in the studio and behind the (virtual) mixing desk, I really started to focus on recording and producing my own tracks.
I play all types of music but specialise in Rock, Metal, Progressive, Death Metal, Technical Death Metal and Djent. I enjoy recording music and have a keen interest in Technical Production.
