"The Reckoning" is the debut album from Ben Simon!  

Ben lost his father September 11th, 2013, and as a way of therapy... and dealing with his emotions, he started writing music for this album, and this is the product of that! After successfully raising money from a Kickstarter campaign, Ben was able to work with a studio to put out one heavy freaking album!          http://guitarman8832.bandcamp.com/album/the-reckoning

	Rejected, but for anyone interested the original instrumental album was re-issued with vocals this summer (death metal growls in the main): http://guitarman8832.bandcamp.com/album/the-reckoning-with-vocals, and a second album is due to be released in the autumn of 2016 - a thematic effort this time, with one "ancient" story told through 8 songs. The facebook link in Svetonio's original post is just Simon's personal account, but the project page itself can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/BenSimonProject.
