About Cathode Saint
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.
Piano lessons as a kid. I still remember the day I could finally play Moonlight Sonata start to finish. That was when I understood practice and perseverance actually pay off. Life led me away from music for years. This project is how I came back.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?
Avenged Sevenfold, City of Evil
Journey, Escape (Bonus Track Version)
Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Beethoven's Last Night
These three built my sound: Avenged Sevenfold taught me heavy could be theatrical and sung, Journey that a chorus should actually reach you, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra that an album can examine one subject completely.

“What I Built”
It is the first song I released, and it still says the whole thesis in one line: what I built will bury me. I wrote it cross-readable on purpose, so the creation you fear could be an algorithm, a child, or a weapon. You bring your own.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far?
Watching the debut single go live, become something a stranger could play. A project is only a project until that moment. Seeing it exist out in the world under its own name made every earlier decision feel worth it.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band?
To finish the body of work, one album per subject, the way I always meant it to be heard. The next reimagines public-domain classics in the band's voice. And one day, to move someone who never stops to think about how it was made.
