ONE-MAN BAND & MORE

Joel Wiseheart, the former bassist of Nightshade (ex-Q5), has launched a new solo heavy metal project called Annimax. In this project, Joel performs all instrumental roles: bassist, guitarist, keyboardist, vocalist, drummer, lyricist, songwriter, and producer. The new project aims to deliver thunderous heavy metal music to his fans. Joel created the label Crystal Crown Productions to bring releases from Annimax and other genres, which he plans to release under a different moniker.

“I have had the honor and privilege of working in some awesome metal bands with many great musicians. And yet, none of the songs ever released by these bands were songs I wrote. So, I figured, ‘If you want it done right, do it yourself.’ I embarked on the ambitious project of Annimax to get the songs out of my head and into a sound recording that I can share with you, all of my metalhead fans! I hope you enjoy it.”

Musicians get paid next to nothing for streams (0.3¢ per stream on Spotify as of 5/20/2023). Depending on the charge, it can take about 2,000 streams to equal one physical CD or digital download sale. So, if you really like what you hear, please consider supporting the artists you love with a physical CD or digital download purchase so they can continue bringing you more music to love!

And besides, I can't autograph a digital download or stream! The Bandcamp "Buy Compact Disc" page includes an option to choose if you want me to autograph your copy personally!
