Armory—Randall D. Standridge. A bombastic
work for young band inspired by video game
music. It alternates between minor and Phrygian
modes to create a dark and sinister soundscape.
The use of aggressive articulations and brake
drum give the work an industrial and militaristic
feel. Safe performances are NOT recommended.
Suit up. Grab your weapon. Go to war!
